I'm in Kansas City, Missouri this weekend for a wedding. I have two electric trains Lionel and LBG. So when in KC, I always go by the model train store in Crown Center, a fancy shopping malll there, as there are not many model train stores anymore and this is a pretty good one.
I am looking at the trains and I see a Marklin Digital HO train engine. It has the profile of a Porsche painted on the side and its says Porsche.
This is totally not fair.
I don't collect Marklin HO trains. But here is this great looking engine with the Porsche logo/name and this cool outline of a Cayman Porsche on the side. I was told that Porsche paid the German Railway for an ad on the side of their trains for the introduction of the Cayman. It looks totally awsome.
This tiny engine is $400 USD, I know in ten years it will be collectible and worth three times as much.
It's so tempting, but totally not fair.
