Brock Lesnar destroyed J&J security # 39; Cadillac popular: Raw, July 6, 2015
Rob I think the most important thing that people do not realize is that it is not that expensive, s car, it is that everything becomes different in your mind a little cheaper When everyone is like fucking it is 12 spark plugs, it's the amount of coolant or oil, I just think that I chose this way to buy this car, it is my current status quo, so when I get a brake rotor for an ordinary car as my Cadillac CTS, I'm like wow, that is really cheap so you appreciate the cost of a normal car instead of saying Oh my God, it's so expensive Your mood changes a little, and it is something most people do not think about normally.
I had the Diablo for 3 years now, so I think I got a lot of its life cycle, and this car is an excellent example because everyone assumes that it is like the old Diablos, where c 'was really Italian, raw and irreplaceable one thing that everyone always talks about, and has a bit of a misconception about the clutch.
Oh, did you have to replace the clutch, which is the second most common question I get second to What you do for a living your mind goes through a process when you are financing or purchase a car that expensive - you even put aside the same percentage of the purchase price for maintenance, but it's not like I bought this car, and now it is 20 million in service there Sá little than your average car, but it is relevant for the car.
5 Recommended maintenance is not Necessarily Maintenance required.
Let's Tavarish someone comes to sell their business for half a million dollars and wants to buy their dream car What advice would you give to a beginner exotic car since the interview goes.
Rob is instantly double figures in my mind, I felt when I bought, and I can check it now that I've owned for a while is the amount you have to do, and it is the amount you should do if you are in the world of exotic cars, and you will finance it because you're younger, as tends to be that if you're like me, you are cheap so that you end up do is a balance between the two.
For example, the tires on this thing - I did not want to replace them anytime soon it was actually a quote from a guy in one of the tires of places you have a Lamborghini, you can afford to spend more No, I have a Lamborghini because I spend less on everything they quoted me in 2700 for 4 tires, and I said hell no, so I ran as long as I could and that seemed be a bit of my downfall and why she was in the interesting thing for nine months store is the cost of the store on the tires 1300 I have for 1500, but it only works when you know someone that can give you this case is much more reasonable.
But the number that you have to spend on maintenance, at least on this car, about 1000 per year, and this is not bad at all you need to do is budget closer to 2 large each year and roll does what you do go to the next year.
4 The secondary market means more money in your pocket.
Tavarish far, which is the most expensive thing you've had to do.
Rob Tires are by far the most expensive thing on this car that I had to do, for example, I just made another oil change - 15 liters of oil, oil filter, my own work it was 120 parts candles, 12 of them, $ 8 each, ended up being 100 something everything related to wheels and brakes, this expensive shit I would say hands down it is disproportionately more about your suspension and rotating mass this is your choice as an owner, but Lamborghini quoted me 800 for brake pads brake pads and you can go to the world aftermarket, which is what I feel comfortable, but some people, when they buy brand new cars, they want to have service records, and all this stuff is not for me, I drive because I'll have for the rest of my life.
Tavarish you are in this for an investment, or is it more of a This is my baby hero thing kind of car.
Rob I got lucky and it is technically both I bought for my second-grade version of me the obsession that I wanted this car all my life Depreciation really stalled the time I bought and the economy was in a shittier place, so the only ones I see for sale are now 20 large more than my 2001 I basically paid 40 grand to get it over expenses 100 000 to one of the oldest of more and older - I had a couple of friends with them - and they're rough think they're almost kit cars I mean, they're beautiful, don t get me wrong, but in comparison, they have significantly improved over ve years.
side of the car fast Rob was purchased for approximately 140,000 there 3 years now, the same year, make and model sells for more than double that needs a stock market with a profit like -this.
2 Supercars Aren t Fragile If you treat them well.
Rob People ask me when the item is out Road Track What would you do if the engine blew whispers on the street, I heard that replacing the entire engine - if the engine grenaded all and threw a piston or something something like that - it would be 60,000, but the chance of this catastrophic failure is very, very thin, but it could happen, but it's much more likely the RX-7, which Sá smaller percentage of discretionary income, where you think Oh, I didn t want to replace this block, but I can Lambo engine, on the other hand, would probably sit a bit until I saved money.
Tavarish you really save a lot of money to do the work yourself.
Rob I wouldn t have been able to speak from experience on this until I shop do all repairs on the car A store gotta make money, especially when they're good, the hourly rate will be higher than I am now, and we make hourly rates, so I completely understand the problem is that when they're a for-profit business, they will not get the level of love and detail in their job you want, even if it's premium car there were things I saw - they were trying to get to a sensor and they broke the support that holds the sensor, as if it were your own, lifting softly, trying different a different perspective because you Don t want to spend money replaced that there were things I've seen on this car which clearly indicated that the shop was a company that time for a person comm e me or you, this passion and no disrespect to them, but that's why I like working on cars myself, particularly RX-7, because the number of hours you are go ing spend it, if you were charged 70 an hour, the amount of money you just go from wouldn t feel.
When I had the studio work on the car, there were lots of times when we were checking facts, they treated me well, but as if you are not in the medical field and you need medical work done - they might be sloppy, try to run tests that might not necessarily be required, and cut corners - the same goes for the shop there were two or three times we went head to head, but not a bad way but yes, absolutely, you save a lot of money, but it is not even saving money is important, but the attention to detail when you yourself even.
