For me I was always into cars.I collected Matchbox cars,I could name every single car on the road.Now only the rare and unique cars get my attention.I started liking exotics( 1980's Ferrari Testarossa and Lamborghini Countach LP5000S QV)I still do.
The most expensive car I've ever been in was today and in a Red LP640-4 Roadster E-gear.

worth $481,000

I gradually started getting into American Muscle(I'm sorry but my dream Muscle Cars are a 1970 Plymouth 'Cuda 440 and a 1970 Buick GSX Stage 1)

I WILL ADMIT TO BEING A VERY VERY LUCKY GUY.
At my last job I was fortunate enough to drive a 2007 Burgandy Aston Martin DB9 Volante,a 2007 Silver Bentley Arnage T and redline a 1987 Red Ferrari 328 GTSi QV 5 speed.

I also got 2 Rides in a 2004 Yellow Lamborghini Gallardo Egear and me and the freind who works on Lamborghinis at the dealership got us up to 150mph on the highway and until you experience something like that a fast camaro or mustang will be put into real perspective

I also got a breif ride in a 2004 Rubino red Ferrari 360 Modena F-1 Spider and a Black 2004 Lamborghini Murcielago E-gear

I also got a ride in a Silver 2001 Ferrari 360 Modena F-1.we got up to 120mph and the second ride in the Lamboghini Gallardo was right after the Ferrari and the Lambo accellerates alot harder and faster than the Ferrari

I'm sorry I can't post pics due to the fact that they're on my phone and my phone is kind of crappy

I eventually started getting into old school hot rods like Lead sleads and Low riders,now I'm getting more into Diesel performance trucks.I like pretty much anything except "Donks,Bubbles and Boxes" for those of you who don't know what they are they're various year caprices or impalas with 21 inch or bigger rims on them and they're jacked up high like their owners.

The people in the south need to learn about the purpose of specific cars.here is my case in point.I live in Jamestown,NC which has a few car customization shops around.One in particular is called Ingram Motorsports.I do not personally know the owner of the shop nor the car in question but the guy who obviously has linked up with Ingram Motorsports put 22 INCH RIMS ON A FERRARI 360 MODENA F-1!!!!!

:thumbd own:

NOW you buy a Ferrari or Lamborghini to GO FAST,That's what they're built for.Not to go SLOW with big rims killing the performance but also the resale value of the car.I hope he still has the car in a few years cuz I'd love to race this Idiot for pinks for that Ferrari

.
I would Immediately take the rims off and crush the rims and put on a more appropriate 19inch novitec rosso rims on and modify the engine a bit
