Wow… I’ll stick with my more affordable easier to maintain cars… And admire the supercars from a distance…

$1400 in parts alone… Remove the engine… damn…

When you’re buying $400000 toys, a couple thousand in service costs is nothing.

What I find cool is the mechanics obvious pride in his work. Obviously they don’t let the shop monkey near the supercars.

True. I liked the part where he said he put the car up as high as it could go so that people wouldn’t touch it while he was away.

To put things a little more in perspective… To buy a $400000 car in Erie County, you would pay $35000 in sales tax.
