Why would you intentionally make yourself look like you got hit in the face with a baseball bat in a photo-op?

Because you are spiritually dead.

Same reason you would make your hair look like it got sucked into a blender: arrogance.

Looks like car for 80+ year olds and why aren't people crying about Beyonce using the not white power hand symbol

I thought that symbol potentially was some Illuminati creepy thing or something, shown in photos of other stars too.

They're so oppressed that they're buying a US$28m Rolls-Royce.

And yet I cannot name a single song produced by either of them. Makes me think the money comes from somewhere else.

A photo-op and a media announcement that you paid $27.9 million too much for it.

That's worth 7 Stradivarius violins or 1 painting by a guy who died 500 years ago.

It’s likely the most expensive production car rather than a resold classic.

the most expensive car is the Ferrari 250 GTO from the 60s.

You're kidding me. Why on earth would you pay so much more for a clunker from the 1960s?

I do think a Rolls Royce will be more comfortable than a Ferrari. It's part conspicuous consumption, but they're not going to sacrifice their comfort for it.

For the same reason military surplus collectors drop 15 grand on a gun which by all functional standards is a piece of shit.

The price of most collectors items are driven by the emotional attachement of wealthy people.

Modern Ferrari seats are actually pretty comfortable

If it has historical value then it shouldn't have a price tag on it.

Maybe Im archaic but if it costs in money then it's value should be more into utility then sentimentality. Sentimentality should not have a number on it.

tries to hide how triggered I am

Unintended. Good thing I didn't ask what I wanted to ask, namely that I really hoped that this wasn't the Ferrari you wanted to buy.

It's not just a clunker from the 60s, it's one of the first successful Ferrari endurance racers.

Dare I ask why anyone would car about that? Or do you want to take it to racetracks? There's not much use for that on ordinary highways.

homologation requirements

You're using big words that me no understand.

No, it's not. I'd have a heart attack every time I took it out of the garage. I want an F355, it's expensive but not insanely so, so you can actually enjoy owning it.

I tried looking them up. They're only $50-70k?

you have to be a Ferrari fan to really understand.

I cannot relate. For me, a car is just a convenience.

Homologation was an old rule that a certain number of road car versions of every race car had to be produced for it to be given a license to race. It's not a thing anymore.

Well, at least I learned something today.
