You have had some great cars.

Either RR would be my pick out of those – but they got the name so very wrong on the “Dawn”

Congrats Bryant looks like fun! Interesting to see you started out in a Z4 leading up to these rides. I had a Z4 coupe back in that same time frame and loved it as well. But now just rolling in a lowly FJ lol!

Thanks for sharing all of that! Great journey and your current selection kind of checks all the marks. Though like you said, you may need a convertible to round it off.

I have an older 911 turbo cab that I keep going back and forth on whether I should trade it for something newer and hotter. It does everything I need and more but I’ve had it for longer than any car I’ve ever owned and I’m getting a bit tired of it. Your motivational posts are what might make me just move forward and do it. Not sure what car but there are so many nice ones out now.

Congrats on the cars and success brother.

Beautiful cars Bryant, and I actually currently have 2/3 of your 2018 setup - a 2014 GT3 and a 2018 M5.
Curious what kind of lease deals can be had on the vantage if you don't mind sharing?

Great story and cool collection!

Can you share your perspective on financing/leasing vs buying in cash? I'm sure this is not your situation, but with the ability to financing everything, the average Joe sees a 100k-300k car and sees payments, while I tend to see someone buying the vehicle as a cash purchase that's a smaller percentage of their annual income versus the masses.

Not to speak for the OP, but most of my friends use Premier Financial Services to get into exotics.

It is a lease program and if done right, there is some money on the back end if your residual to purchase and the selling price presents an opportunity.

As for cash purchase, doesn't make sense at all in that end of the market as the rates are competitive on the leverage side, and most people with the type of capital to make a purchase of that size tend to come across other investment opportunities.
