Why would Michael Dell have a Porsche Boxter, that is a poor mans Porsche and with $17 billion he is anything but poor.

What isn't mentioned is that these guys probably have a private limo-service 24/7, and maybe the cars are for sentimental reasons...?
Third option: billionares=wierdos who don't care about cars
