Whats not to like.
Used to be if you going on a serious jungle/desert/mountain expedition it was the only vehicle that could hack it.
(I remember a story about some guys out in Africa when their crank case cracked and all the oil leaked out 600 miles from anywhere, they repacked it with bananas and made it to civilization for a proper repair)

Ah, but that's a special car.
My "buddy" got divorced, and his wife took everything.
And I mean EVERYTHING.
The one thing that his wife left him was a C63 AMG.
The same C63 AMG that she had been balling his brother in.
The same brother that is the father of her kid.
The same kid that my "buddy" has to pay child support on.
This is the same "buddy" who would think nothing of "borrowing" items from you, and then "forget" to return them.
His ex was nice enough to return most of the items to their rightful owners.

That's the car that just sits in the garage, and only comes out to drive him around.

One thing I'd like to have is a "street sleeper" -- like a stock-looking Honda Accord that has 900hp under the hood.

Oh crap, I forgot the Aquada. This can replace the Porsche 356.

It doesn't look quite so much like a penis from other angles.

The Bugatti is NOT a penis car!

It's very cool, and I like it.

That doesn't make me gay, right?
