You know if a Bugatti Veyron gets here it would probably be tagged at US$5 million dollars.

A Ferrari say F430 or the older 360 costs about 5 times so about half a million US dollars here. And some people are still crazy enough to buy these

Even if I had the money to buy something like that, I would be too afraid to drive it. Can you imagine the condition it would be in if you parked it in a public parking lot???

I guess if you have to worry about it, you can't afford it... well if that is true, I can't even afford my 2005 Prius. . I worry about my car a lot (it is the only one I have)

Besides, it wasn't a yellow suzuki bike. Now if that were the case, the rumors would be flying.
