I mean, he's got a point.

No. He’s totally in the wrong man. It’s his parent’s money! He’s just the lucky one who gets to clean it up over here with casinos, real estate and luxury cars LUL

All kidding aside, people are too sensitive these days. I’d hardly call that racism myself. Sure he may be wrongfully assuming it’s dirty money but is that racism? Is it because he said China?

It’s an assumption to me and there’s been enough evidence to support the theory, even here on RS over the years.

For the record I don’t condone the behaviour as he comes across as a total dick but I do question if it’s racism. I’ll admit as a white guy seeing young asians driving 500k+ cars, I’ve found myself thinking there’s a decent chance it was bought with dirty money from overseas from time to time.

Am I racist for thinking that or making an educated guess?

Or am I just jealous I can’t drive an Aventador like the 20 y/o girl I saw on Granville the other day. The answer is yes... Yes I am.

People are just too quick to cry racism these days if you ask me.

You really want people in our society to lash out like this? You're okay with this kind of behaviour being a common occurrence?

An F40 would say fuck you, you can't hear a damn thing while driving me... an F50 would say fuck you, I could crash at any second you better keep both hands and all 10 knuckles whitened on my steering wheel at all times.

Once you live in a Richmond condo for long enough, you become desensitized to all these nice cars.

Endless rows of GTRs and McLarens in my parkade. Panameras, as well as 3 LC500s, two of which are Inspirations. M4s more plentiful than Corollas and AMGs everywhere.

Jealous? Yes. Annoyed that at least some of these kids used dirty laundered money to buy these cars here? Very.

I'm not even white and I'm upset. Can't imagine how much more triggered I'd be if I was white.

Something obviously happened prior to the video to a) trigger the truck driver and b) prompt the Ferrari driver/passenger to record it. Who knows what that was.

Ultimately, people need to a) calm the fuck down, b) treat each other better, and c) stop being cry babies.

Downtown is insane. Every single new limited car is in my parking lot. GT2RS GT2 GT3RS, G 4x4's New G63. Few Urus, rows of Bentleys and Ferraris covered up, RR Dawns Phantoms. Had more cars than the auto show probably.

Jealous? No. Annoyed No.

If someone is a good person, it has absolutely nothing to do with the car they drive or how much money they have.

That said, if the Ferrari guy is talking on the phone, that has nothing to do with race. That's a legit point.

According to IG the drivers GF was filming and this was an unprovoked verbal attack.

As an exotic car owner I can tell you that there's a lot of hate in Vancouver towards supercars and Asians. I've had people actually tail me, pull up beside me and say "Oh, I thought you were Asian" so I can't imagine been a skinny Asian kid driving an exotic in this city and getting a random tongue lashing.

Is the hate justified? I don't think so because frankly I don't give a shit what you do for a living, what kind of house you live in or what kind of car you drive. Going after someone for a nice car is like walking down a random Vancouver street and getting triggered looking at multi-million dollar homes, knocking on the door and going on a verbal tirade on the owner about illegal money because they're Asian. Makes no sense to me.

Another fun fact is is not all local exotic car owners are young Asian kids cleaning money. In fact, I would say half the local Lamborghini owners are White, same with Mclaren and Ferrari. Most of them are doctors, lawyers and business owners who usually come out for drives or events. There's also a lot of older Asian owners who are professionals. The media wants to paint all supercar owners as either young rich Asian kids or money launders but they make a small % of supercar owners locally.

Conclusion:
"Your money must have been stolen money."

I never go to these supercar/diamond rally events so I'll take your word that 50% are white. I think the issue here though is they aren't driving their cars around all day. If they are, they're probably being a little more"respectful" on the road and don't make us look twice.

I'm downtown almost everyday beside the Trump tower. I have seen 1 exotic that was driven by a Caucasian in 6 years. It was a blue mp4-12C a few years back and guy was smoking a fat cigar. Living the life.

I've got to say from the perspective of someone in downtown/metrotown daily I can't say the rich Asian kid % to be small. Obviously I can't speak on the money launder % and I'm sure none of us can because we just simply do not know.

Stereotype just paint Asian as money launderers these days. If you drive a nice car and young Asian, automatic assumption it's dirty money used to purchase your toys. For all we know, he could be a banker, stock investor, business owner raking in good dough. When you are young, people assume aren't you too young to be making all that kinda money. There's enough shit going on in a given day for each one of us, don't even get why these kinds of assholes got the time to criticize others. It's like we just can't have nice things these days.

To be honest the price of an exotic car is nothing compared to our crazy real estate prices. 200k will get you a lightly used 458. 200k won't even get a shitty condo in Maple ridge. It's not thatttttt expensive compared to everything else. I'm certain a lot of the gvrd population could probably afford one they just choose not to spend that money on depreciating assets.

You wanna really see big money. Look for a Patek Philippe owner. 65k - 200k on average for a fucking wrist watch that 90% of the people don't even know is utterly baller.

Brah, you can pick up a 458 with 50,000 km for $200k if you're lucky. Slightly used 458's are hovering around $255k+ and going up. The 458 is actually a good long term investment.

If it ever happened to me, I would...............wait.......... it'll never happen. I wouldn't be able to afford such a car........... or actually want one, if I could.

If I did, however, I'd be like, "Buddy, something wrong with your neck? It's red. Oh right, NVM. While you're at it, give your head a shake really, really hard. Hear anything? Yeah, nothing inside, god bless."

Or, I would sing the "Ching Chong, Ling Long, Ting Tong," song. Yes, I composed my own version of that song. Not trying to be too racist, but that truck driver is such a stereotypical white dude, gulolol. I was going to say, truck needs a VI, but the truck is in surprisingly good looking condition.


I was thinking...... back in my day, we all had great racist jokes. It was all in fun and it eased tensions and shit. Forced you to come up with even better jokes, as come backs. You got respect for coming up with 'em. Now you get lambasted for looking at a visible minority person the wrong way. I was at a gay wedding and let me tell ya, people got up and told the most amazing gay jokes I have ever heard. People were falling out of their chairs, laughing.

and of course at a gay wedding nobody is gonna get offended, they're just making fun of themselves after all, and they're amongst nothing but their own friends.

You got respect for coming up with 'em. Now you get lambasted for looking at a visible minority person the wrong way. I was at a gay wedding and let me tell ya, people got up and told the most amazing gay jokes I have ever heard. People were falling out of their chairs, laughing. All in fun and no gay person was hurt in the making.......

To give even more relevance, her diss track is about RiceGum, an asian youtuber who flaunts his money and exotic cars.

Brah, you can pick up a 458 with 50,000 km for $200k if you're lucky. Slightly used 458's are hovering around $255k+ and going up. The 458 is actually a good long term investment.

Pricing has been coming down though. If you avg 1k kms per year, yes still holds value well. But anything over 20k kms, the price drops off dramatically. I was offered a 2012 458, Daytona seats, 12k Kms for $235k....all luxury cars are dropping fast....McLaren depreciation is scary....

Pricing on the 458 is spec dependant, clean (which doesn't mean clean carfax) and mileage. If you can find a clean low millage car I would buy it because it'll be a good buy long term.

The biggest bubble bursting right now is the 991.2 GT cars. The used market is getting flooded and no one is buying. A good lesson on why you never pay ADM for a non-limited car.

You're absolutely right! They aren't different. Did you copy paste to make that statement? :troll:

Derp, too much rephrasing what I wrote and not enough proofreading. Edited the original post.

"All that money you stole from China eh?"

Nothing racist about that.

However, haters gonna hate. Financial success brings the haters out.

This is more prejudice against the wealthy. If you're the wealthy guy, man it up and move along.

Do you mind elaborating on the Porsche 991.2 used-markets bubble?

Interested to hear more.

No one is willing to pay crazy over MSRP on the 991.2 GT's. There's 60+ 2018 GT's listed right now and some sellers have been dropping the price gradually but still can't sell. Porsche built a lot of GT's this time around to combat flippers and it's working.

Bottom line is supply is outweighing the demand which is bad news for flipper but good news for buyers.

That's racist.So it's either that my luck is just that bad and I keep encountering ones that honk at you too soon/for no reason, drive like they are trying to compensate for something, and in one case almost changed lane into me.

Or most of them are just a-holes.

Pick whichever plays better for you.

that truck driver would not have said a thing if it were an old white guy driving the car... it's not just about jealousy.

Haters will be haters - regardless if they're white, brown, yellow, or purple.

Some dirtbag wrote on the hood of my 911 in my parkade.

I wouldn't want a purple hater.

I don't want to get snapped into dust.

To be fair, though, I'd have more respect for an old white guy, who probably worked hard his entire life to finally get to drive an exotic car, than some pimply faced asian punk who got the car for his 16th birthday from parents who made oodles of money on the backs of the poor and most likely through illegal activities............

Now that, my friends, is stereotyping, yes?


Now, if that old white guy had an ultra hot supermodel in the passenger seat, then I'd be all jelly.............

I cant call those guys car enthusiast at all.. Those guys ruin it for actual car enthusiast that want to buy a 991.2 and actually keep it for a long time....

people pick easy to notice attributes to shit talk random people, it would be confusing if he yelled at an old white guy for bringing corrupt money from China, similar to yelling at an asian teenager that he is to old to drive and he should lose his license and go back to riding a bus with the rest of the seniors.

I agree, even 3 months ago, 991.2 Gt3 RS were trading +$50k msrp. Now you can one for +$5k to msrp. I can’t believe how fast the market is cavitating

The GT3 is causing vapour-filled cavities from a submarine ala the Hunt for Red October when the Russians pulled a Crazy Ivan and the US sub had all full reverse causing cavitation from the sudden change in pressure by the props?

The people who actually track them (and take advantage of the PDK) already own them. The casual enthusiast prefers a manual GT car, hence not the showroom RSs.

Old white guy could be dealing drugs his entire life. Pimply face Asian punk could be a fn'ing self-made megastar somewhere. Point is you're stereotyping and profiling people. You don't know people's story, don't slap a label on them.

Assigning respect, jeer to people because they own/ do not own material things is a joke.

K there bud.....
You can vurtue signal all you want, but I'll stick with assigning my own profile and judging a book by it's cover. Sure, I'll allow myself to be casually surprised when I'm wrong. But I'll still be right 9 out of 10 times thinking some chinese kid in a Lambo is a fuerdai as opposed to an internet genius. Or when some 400 lbs motherfucker with tattoos and piercings is approaching, chances are he isn't there to be my friend.

It worked for our ancestors, when Attila the Hun came over the hill he wasn't there to borrow sugar. So why change now?

Ah fuck, I'm sorry guys I may have started it with this guy. This was like 2 years ago. I was bombing down Westminster Hwy in a M3 heading toward the 2 rd bridge and this same guy no signal cut across my lane so he could go to the Chevron. We were driving side by side and I was staring him down and he gave me the finger and yelled fuck you so I said something along the lines of hey faggot learn how to drive, what the fuck are you doing in Richmond go back to to the trailer park. Might have called him a white trash also. I didn't get to see his reaction but he looked pretty pissed lmao
