RE: Cars, bikes and parmesan cheese in Bologna, Italy.
Hey @pjcswart, thanks for reading my post. Yes, I've heard of the Lancia. The 1980's Lancia Rally 037 was an amazing beast in Group B. Won the WRC in 1983! Nice machine. I think I've got a picture I took of it in action here at a rally a few years ago. (Not WRC, just a local comp). It's owned by one the wealthy people in my city.
I'm vaguely familiar with the RR Ghost. Nice car. Well out of my price range though! :)
Interesting. RR Ghost Series is around 360k USD i think. Are Lancia's pretty valuable?
I think an ex-rally Lancia would fetch a lot of money. I'm not sure though. That RR in AUD would be somewhere around a million bucks I think based if the USD price you mentioned. Again, not sure. I'd rather do a small property development than by that RR though.
Interesting, are you a big car fan? Why do you think they are so valuable?
Not a big car fan. I like guns more. They are valuable because people attach a value to items that make them feel a certain way. People also like to be perceived by others in a particular way consequently they feel they need certain things to assist with growing others' perception. Cars, houses, designer handbags...The list goes on.
Yeah I know it is a trap. It just never ends, there is always the next thing. Have you seen Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps. One guy asks the other guy, how much is enough, what is your number, everyone has a number? And then he says "More." Thats it. Thats all he said.
Yep.
What do you do?
For work you mean? I'm Business Development Manager for a property company. Nothing special. Would be better if I was a fighter pilot or F1 driver... :)
