Whatever

I mean, sure, if that's what you are into.... I guess that's kind of cool.
Me? I'm a Geo Metro kind of guy; understated, confident..... you know.
I throw a suede jacket on the dash of my Metro- looks pretty much the same.

One of the them costs around $244,000. He said his next car is going to be a Veyron.. but I will believe when I see it, he is only 19 for christ's sake.. he drove a Diablo when he was 16.. I am here being 45 with only a 335i. And yes, the interior is suede.

I guess those are the perks of being swedish and having a dad who is Executive at IKEA. Ugh. Makes me sick to my stomach at times.

Diablo at 16?! And THAT at 19. Damn, props to him for being able to talk his Dad into that one. If you've got the money, might as well.

As long as your cousin is a good guy about it.

sweet! I just saw the latest Top Gear Episode where they go to find the perfect road in Europe, they took a Gallardo Superleggera, GT3 RS and an Aston Martin race car all around France, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, it was great.


Congrats to your cousin - I don't care what the local laws are, if that was my car I wouldn't let anyone fill my tank!

The Gallardo's a good looking car, looks mean as hell. Definitely think they're better looking than the Murcielago IMO. You don't see too many Lambo's around here, mostly a bunch Ferrari's and Bentley's.

Yea, we got a IKEA here not to long ago, stores HUGE. I'm guessing he's in the corp, doubting they do the franchise bit...
Edit: looks like they are a franchise

I thought IKEA is privately owned but controlled by a Dutch holding company.


edit: Ingavar Kamprad is the owner worth an estimated $70b. Swedish born, lives in Switzerland.

They say the owner is really frugal tho. Just drives around in an old Volvo station wagon.
