It wasn’t about the cost at that point. It was about the principalities.

It’s a shame the guy didn’t get his watch back. Yet.

Hah!

Seems like this Lamborghini driver was living out his Michael Douglas fantasy: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106856/

Sometimes these outlets are where you actually find news that legacy news sources purposely won’t cover. For example, Bloomberg radio reported the Biden Administration released 1m gallons of refined gas from reserves prior to the Memorial Day weekend to keep gasoline prices down. A Google search to verify confirmed the outlets that covered this were local news (NY1.Com), NY Post and Politico. People are quick to shoot the messenger rather than verifying the veracity of the information.

Hopefully he'll learn from this and next time, steal the car, as well.
