Whether I'm a rapper, an influencer, an architect or just a blue collar worker who sacrificed and saved up a lifetime to catch a dream, no car manufacturer should take me for less than another because I haven't paid to play or my optioned car isn't rich enough to pad the pockets of a greedy salesman; thereby wooing him to sell you said car. That does not sit well with me coming from humble stock and beginnings. Porsche is a car manufacturer, not a damn private club, but dealers and sales people alike act like they are, like they are doing us a favor by taking our hard earned money. Sad thing is potential owners so desperate for allocations just play along. Yes, it's nice to own a car not many do, but my money should be good anywhere wether I've bought ten Porsche or one. One thing is getting in line for your car and when your turn comes, you are granted the allocation based on first come first served basis, another is to be told you can't buy a car…period in the case of the more expensive vehicles..even if it's just sitting on the dealer floor ready to be purchased. Apparently at Porsche, money isn't the only thing that matters!

What fucking arrogance.

Sorry for the rant guys…one of those Mondays
Now do Ferrari. :P

There's a reason Leno won't own Ferrari.
Good for him. I guess Leno doesn't hang with the Grey Poupon crowd 😂
