Ahh, so may we consider you a "contact"?

When I get ready for my Vanquish, I am gonna give you a call!

Are you sure?

I almost think you're a celebrity, and any car you own turns to gold because the next owner can claim you owned it!

I looked at a either a 2013 or 14 Vanquish when I was in LA last month. I could not believe how nice the car was. It was loaded with carbon fibre and looked stunting. It held its own spot along side of several Ferrari 458s.

Its just as expensive and better looking than those 458's.... not sure how it compares to the XK in performance...prolly beats the XKR-S with its 565 HP

When I was in LA with my daughter last month I searched up and down Hollywood Blvd and could not find my name.

Default Nothing To Worry About

Here are my thoughts on your concerns. Life is not a dress rehearsal ... it's your one and only chance at living on planet earth. Make your decisions based on whatever criteria you choose. Other than the laws we must obey, there are no 'rules of life'. If you like nice cars ... fine. If you like to wear flip-flops with your tuxedo ... fine. If you want to grow a beard on the left side of your face only ... fine. It's 100% about what makes you happy ... not what makes others happy. Be nice to others and help them whenever you can. Be a good husband, a good father and a good American. Enjoy life on your own terms ... because you don't answer to anyone 'here'. What others think or say about you and the choices you've made simply don't matter. Live life to its fullest with no regrets. You have nothing to worry about.
