Why don't you get a Bentley if you want status. I'm sure you can afford it, seeing as how you have over $1 million worth of cars "on-order."

I don't see the point of buying a car based on how much "status" you will obtain by driving it.

But, it seems to me that X5's and ML's are a dime a dozen. I live in New York, and I see at least 10 ML's an hour being driven by soccer mom's.

The G55 will get you noticed, but is it really the kind of attention that you want?

I see you have many cars on order. So what exactly do you drive right now? I have a few of those cars on your list, albeit a smaller non-drivable version

So back to my original question, what do you actually drive?

It seems that he's mocking people who have a great deal of their self-worth tied up in the cars that they own, or potentially have on order, like someone with a lameass sig like:

"02 ML500 - Black Opal/Ash
M3, M5, M6
Bose, Bi-Xenon, Parktronic

Ordered:
03 C230K Sedan - Black/Charcoal
6-Speed, C2, C4
Bose, CD, Heated Seats"

Like someone is really interested in the fact that someone has a dime-a-dozen SUV with Parktronic.

Thanks for the help. Guess a large percentage of members using these forums have little self-worth and are very lame. Oh well
