With the exception of maybe the Benz, all are 3rd or 4th cars in the fleet. The Porsche could be a primary driver, dare I even say all year daily.Are you saying your Porsche will be a daily driver? I bet not! Absolutely agree that a lambo would be a 3rd car (including wife's), for sure. But it would make every journey way more special than the Porsche.A $2K-$3K annual budget for maintenance on a supercar is the norm, I'm fine with that.I may take you up on that bet...Ha ha, good! Now when are we doing brunch?

"In a statement this afternoon, VW confirms that the fire gave off no emissions whatsoever."
Those are some complex logistics to make that happen so quickly.

Only $113K so basically zero depression over 8 years.

Not too surprising....if you have the means to park some cash you can drive desirable cars for next to no depreciation at the moment. Perfect example being the guys I work with who have new Suburbans/Yukons perpetually on order. As soon as their new rig arrives, dealer has someone willing to pay "new car pricing" for their 6-month old truck with 10,000km on it. You just to be a good enough customer to get priority for an allocation.

So from the sounds of it taxes aren't really an issue when doing this.
