So, after reading today’s article about the One:1 development mule being offered for $6 million, I started wondering what you could have instead for that kind of money. Unsurprisingly, the results were quite stunning.

Lol 173,000 for a BMW that isn’t the M1? No thanks.

I do agree with you though I love cars, but in my mind once prices reach the half a million sum I just figure it’s not worth it. There are unbelievable, fun, amazing cars that can be had for under that sum so why would you spend more?

Yes. It’s a rare color but like all Ferrari prices right now, its a bit high.

If I were spending $6 mil, I’d be looking at something else made in Sweden:

Spend about $150K on flight training and certifications, buy this, then ferry people around and make some good money.

Or, go a completely different route, and ferry small packages at a premium at high speed :

Alternatively, 460 Mitsubishi Mirages (and one 944) to create Stef’s dream racing series.

Disregard cars, acquire decrepit Soviet era fighter jets. Somehow that MiG-27 looks more threatening in a state of decay than it does with fresh paint.

Today I learned 300SLs cost more than actual 962s.
