People have paid 10x that for cars they never plan on driving.

When you have that kind of money you don't buy anything in the sense us normals understand. Buying entails exchanging something of value to you. At that level of wealth you just decide to own something because money is like lint in your pocket. Watch that video I posted and the other ones about this Joe guy's TT Ford GT. He gets pulled by a turbo hayabusa and decides he needs more power so they need to build the car further. This is after probably a $100k build on a $200k car. A 500hp sport bike beat me? Oh well, throw another $100,000 at it.
