What would be he be drivin'when he is, let us say, 48
My answer to this is simple. Having a Gallardo at 18 is like a boosted stepping stone. If you drive that at 18 at 30 you move up to a murc, at 48 a 911 turbo or a carrera gt. I realize Audi has destroyed the refinement theory to an extent of driving a rougher car at younger age and a more refined car later in life but, that's another piece of the story. An s500 isn't meant for an 18 year old, it's too lame.
Essentially "it wouldn't be fun unless you are doing 120 down the highway with your head on fire" I forget who says that but it sums this up
I mean this is a happy warm type way.
