Pretty funny that, after this comment, I watched EE's latest YouTube video with the "two Jasons" where Camissa comments on the VERY SAME ISSUE.

Tune in at 30:00 where he says the 911 S/T should be $90k so it can be enjoyed by "the masses," and not just those who already own 75 Porsches.

I guess he's as dumb as me then?
yes.

It's sad, so sad. It's a sad, sad situation. And it's getting more and more absurd.

100%. That same argument applies to everything that is not being used. As I mentioned before, if you have a spare bedroom that is not being used, apparently you are "hording it" and "driving up" housing prices for the masses who would use that bedroom as it was meant to be used. Same with your land. All of those acres could be farmed, or have low-income housing on them. And that second Rolex? Could be on someone's arm who would use it a intended. It is everything.

I also remain confused about why someone else's "intent" is my concern.

Any thread with this title is going to be a doozy. Impossible to resist click bait. Well done Any guesses on number of pages? Only chance it doesn’t amass epic numbers will be it being shut down for going over the line. Ok I am promising to myself I’m not opening it a 2nd time. Must resist!

I’ve always thought people buy and don’t drive for 1 of 2 reasons.

1. Can’t afford it. Can afford to buy the car, but not take the massive hit of it going for 50-75k or more less than one with low miles.
2. Medium/Large car collector (more than 10 cars). Gets the cars out, but realistically can’t put that many miles on all of them.

Other than those two, I’m not sure what people are thinking not using something as intended.
