Congrats! Recently bought one of my own dream cars. It's a lot of fun getting what you always wanted. Especially when it exceeds the hype. I had the fun of driving a Diablo at a track day (as an instructor). Tons of fun, completely impractical and uncomfortable. Perhaps one of the heaviest clutches I have ever experienced. 9/10, would definately drive again although I don't think I'd ever own a Diablo. The Gallardo on the other hand seems like the perfect balance of impracticality and discomfort in exchange for raw experience. Go do a track day or autocross! That car for sure wants to be wrung out like nothing else!

"After digging into the data it appears there are less than 100 examples of this exact car worldwide. Once you factor in USA only cars, with more than 10,000 miles, not poorly modded or maintained, no twin turbo cars, no branded titles... It's got to be less than 50 or even less." Bro, i think you are Corvette owner at heart.

Hahaha I realized how cringe it was while writing it out. I don’t think it makes my car more valuable or special though. I simply wanted a well maintained, stock, manual, poster car. So I had more requirements than the average Gallardo buyer. I need some new balances and Jean shorts.

Higher end of middle class, dropped out of highschool, had several software companies, e-commerce, home service businesses. Lost it all multiple times. Wouldn’t have been possible if not for my parents letting me live with them well into my twenties, bailing me out multiple times, and instilling in me the belief that you can do anything. No trust fund, but I have not had a difficult life at all. Extremely privileged.

Yes. My parents love me, and enjoy having me around. Same goes for me with them. Why is them having an empty bedroom and me living alone and seeing them less often seen as a good thing? I get that in our culture thing it's seen as a bad thing, but it doesn't make logical sense when it's better for everyone involved if you have a healthy and loving relationship with each other.

Understandable, however renting is pretty much throwing money out the window. At least with a car you're just accounting for depreciation. I don't see an issue with having a nice vehicle while living with your parents, especially if they don't mind/actually enjoy you being around.

I didn't say renting was always a worse option. You're just not getting any capital from paying rent. I currently rent because it's a better option for me. I also understand that it's money I will never see again. My main point is why should someone spend money on rent when they can live for free at their parents and it works for all parties?
View on Reddit #50619551

hunty91@reddit

That makes sense, but for most people the option isn’t rent vs live for free, it’s rent vs buy. It’s in that context that people use the whole “rent is throwing money away point”, which implies that for whatever reason mortgage interest isn’t the exact same thing.

My parents also grew up poor, especially my mom. They always prioritized having fun, as early as possible. Because life isn’t guaranteed. Also, it’s not like I was being irresponsible. I was investing in my future as well as buying the cars. I sold both for more than I paid for them, so all I took the hit on was gas, maintenance, mods, and insurance. Wasn’t losing $30k on depreciation or anything. Hope that makes more sense.

Lot of judgmental/jealous people in here. Point is, you have a special set of variables allowed to you that enabled you to be successful, it sounds like your family taught you how to take risks within' a security blanket they provided to you until you could figure it all out, you had the confidence to try and fail because you didn't have to be held accountable for your failures. Don't take this the wrong way, its not a bad thing, it shows your parents were willing to stick their necks out for you in order to help you learn by doing. Its why you are becoming wildly successful (I am assuming) at such a young age. I think some people feel jealous of those who are given such a wonderful set of tools early in life, especially when they themselves had to struggle and do things they didn't want to just to get by. They dreamed of being able to make purchases like that, so it can be frustrating for them to see others easily achieve it and feel a sense of envy, then of course they get on the internet and project those frustrations on others simply trying to celebrate their accomplishments.

View on Reddit #50666778

Mojo@reddit (OP)

Selling cheats in video games is fine imo because when you buy a game, you own that software—similar to how owning a book lets you scribble notes or tear pages if you want. Developers have every right to forbid cheating in online play, but enforcing that rule is on them. If someone manages to bypass anti-cheat, that just means the game’s protections weren't good enough. It’s your game, your choice—it's the company's job to keep up. Morally it's a bit grey. I generally think that cheating is bad and you shouldn't do it. Especially if money is involved (i.e. eSports) Even if nobody knows, cheating undermines trust and breaks an agreement you made when choosing to play in the first place. At the same time, it's just a video game and is fairly low stakes. So if you cheat respectfully and don't make the game unenjoyable for other players, there really isn't a victim. Obviously this is just my opinion.

Seems you're right from OP's response.  As a kid of divorce that had to move out and pull his own weight when returning from college at 22, I just can't relate to parents not freaking out that their kid is at home and buying $60k+ cars.  It's like a parallel universe to me.

What did you expect him to do? Move out & be homeless so he can artificially start from the bottom and create some "rags to riches" story? The guy admitted he had a good foundation *well* into his 20's. You are taking it to the next level by saying "he should consider himself beyond spoiled". I understand life is not fair, you don't have to rub it in his face though. Makes you sound miserably envious.

Not at all what I was getting at, at all.  He's spoiled because he had parents looking the other way when he wasn't moving into an apartment or a house, but instead buying expensive cars when living under their roof.  No matter how you look at it, that's not their kid investing in their future, which is the primary reason why kids stay at home if they're healthy and able to survive on their own.  I'm not jealous at all - I'm happy with the life I live, and feel like I've done decently well for myself.  I just don't like it when people delude themselves into thinking being a spoiled kid is somehow the norm - at least own it as being spoiled if you're a rich kid.
View on Reddit #50604023

Mojo@reddit (OP)

My parents weren't "looking the other way"—they saw me working hard and actively supported my choice to stay home because it was financially smarter. I wasn't even encouraged to move out because for most people, money is a scarce resource whereas once you have enough money to hit peak happiness, other things matter more. Like time with family. Why move out just to pay rent or buy a house when I'd end up alone, isolated, and spending money unnecessarily on something that wasn't important to me? Who's to say that I wasn't already investing in my future? Surely you'd agree that building skills, businesses, connections and investing in the stock market counts as "investing in my future" because I was doing all of those things, well before I decided to buy any car. Your viewpoint is also culturally narrow. The concept of leaving home to "build your own life" immediately after adulthood is distinctly American—it's certainly not universal. In many Asian cultures, like in Japan or India, multi-generational households are standard and even preferred, seen as supportive structures rather than something to escape from. I'm fully aware my situation isn't the norm—I'm grateful and privileged (yes, spoiled) to have parents who supported me. But owning privilege isn't delusional; it's self-aware. And honestly, you claim you're happy, but your tone doesn't reflect that at all.

Surely you'd agree that building skills, businesses, connections and investing in the stock market counts as "investing in my future" because I was doing all of those things, well before I decided to buy any car. Did your investments pay for the cars in full, plus interest?  If not, your choices with the cars eliminated all of that.  It's one thing to do it on your own dime, but you did it on your parents dime by staying under their roof. >Your viewpoint is also culturally narrow.

In many Asian cultures, like in Japan or India, multi-generational households are standard and even preferred, seen as supportive structures rather than something to escape from. Genuinely, are you any of these, or just using it as a datapoint for your argument?  I'm aware of other cultures norms being different - having spent a large chunk of my time in a South Korean household growing up, they wanted their kids to be safe and branch out on their own.  If they would have had their kids defy them like this, they would have been kicked out and set to fend for themselves - had a few friends (also Korean) that went this route to carve their own path. >I'm fully aware my situation isn't the norm—I'm grateful and privileged (yes, spoiled) to have parents who supported me. But owning privilege isn't delusional; it's self-aware. You're arguing back and forth as to whether it's spoiled or not, so I don't know what you're choosing to say...but I didn't say owning it was delusional - I said not fully owning it as being spoiled is. >And honestly, you claim you're happy, but your tone doesn't reflect that at all. My tone has to do with an irritation of the attitude of kids blowing tons of cash on frivolous purchases while being at home, and acting as if it's normal or some little favor.  Nah little homie, it's a *huge* deal to be able to buy something most people work most of their adult life for, and you need to refocus your perspective.  The tone of your initial post is that you earned up to this - sorry, but your parents funded a lot of this by giving you an interest free loan to start life 8-10 years late.

For someone giving out financial advice, your insistence that buying a single-family home to live in is 'the largest and most sound investment' you could make tells me everything I need to know about your grasp of investing. Owning a home to live in isn’t an investment—it’s a forced savings account for people who can’t do better with their money. Once you factor in interest, property taxes, maintenance, remodeling to sell it, being in a nice location (higher CoL) for appreciation to even happen in the first place, and inflation you'd probably be *better* off buying manual exotic cars. Houses were great investments depending on the location, 20 years ago. I wasn't buying houses then though, I was playing need for speed. Also, you asked if my (monetary, not time) investments paid for my cars 'plus interest.' Not only did they pay for the cars many times over, but the returns from my businesses are comfortably into the hundreds of thousands of percent. I realize that might be difficult to conceptualize if your investment strategy revolves around crossing your fingers and hoping Blackstone buys your house in 20 years. (They are already dumping them at a 30%+ loss in multiple markets btw, you should probably check your Zestimate) Not even getting into the fact that I sold both the GTR and the C7 for more than I paid for them. Obviously still lost money to fuel, interest (both cars were financed) and insurance. But they weren't bad investments, they were purchases. What might be a lot of money to you, is a mere afterthought to someone else. Do you agonize over if your investments cover your Netflix subscription? I’ve explicitly acknowledged multiple times that I was spoiled, yet you keep hammering it like you’ve discovered a deep secret. Are you skimming my replies or just stuck in a loop? Look, it's obvious you're frustrated. Your generation's prosperity was built on the back of the 30-year mortgage—one of the biggest economic boosters in U.S. history. That plus our culture around home ownership helped us to become the powerhouse that we are today. It allowed regular people to build wealth and drove massive economic growth. So, I get why you'd hold onto the idea that a house is still some great investment. But times have changed: the average person can't even afford a home anymore, let alone reap the returns you enjoyed. To be honest, staying at home wasn't even a financial decision, it was an emotional one. I wanted to spend more time with parents and siblings. I made this post to have conversations with other car enthusiasts and share my excitement about getting a dream car—not to debate with you about whether I was spoiled as a young adult or whether my decision to buy a $60k car, *checks notes*, ten years ago was financially prudent. I tried my best to be humble and honest; I'm not sure what else you want from me.

>Owning a home to live in isn’t an investment—it’s a forced savings account for people who can’t do better with their money.  It is an investment, it's just a more stable, long term investment.  Just because it's not a volatile, high percentage investment doesn't mean it isn't an investment.   >Once you factor in interest, property taxes, maintenance, remodeling to sell it, being in a nice location (higher CoL) for appreciation to even happen in the first place, and inflation you'd probably be better off buying manual exotic cars These things have always existed in housing, this is not a valid argument.  Housing has always been the highest cost to buy-in, but equal return investment.  This was my point about it being the biggest investment - by cost, it is the single most expensive thing the average person will buy in their lifetime.  >Not only did they pay for the cars many times over, but the returns from my businesses are comfortably into the hundreds of thousands of percent. Great!  It still confuses me how this didn't launch you out of the house, but you sort of answered that later in the post. >Look, it's obvious you're frustrated. Your generation's prosperity was built on the back of the 30-year mortgage—one of the biggest economic boosters in U.S. history. Nothing I have was built on mortgages, it's all been based off of working, saving and making smart plays with credit that led to profits long term.  Unfortunately, saving for retirement has had to take priority over a mortgage for me - a poor decision in some aspects, but I've prioritized that nest egg first, and hustle in other areas to offset that. >I realize that might be difficult to conceptualize if your investment strategy revolves around crossing your fingers and hoping Blackstone buys your house in 20 years. (They are already dumping them at a 30%+ loss in multiple markets btw, you should probably check your Zestimate) I'm good, thanks. >Do you agonize over if your investments cover your Netflix subscription? Sort of - I force budget myself by either cutting or putting off things based on my salary - if there's something frivolous I want, I cut something else to make up for it.  I don't have so much money that I can throw a lot of it away, and I have no safety net in the form of another person.  I'm the only one accountable if I don't have a roof over my head, and need to fix it if I don't. >I tried my best to be humble and honest; I'm not sure what else you want from me.

Thank you for the measured response. I’m not anti-job or anti-hustle—everyone’s playing their own game and racing against themselves. I'm also not anti home ownership. I love homes. I'm planning to build one soon. I disagree that they are investments if you live in them. If you rent them out, obviously they are investments. But nobody is getting wealthy from sitting in their house ever again like the boomers did in my opinion. I can't see the future, it's a gamble like any other. I'm betting that it's the case and the home I'm building reflects that, I'm paying no mind to resale value, location or anything else that I don't care about. I'm building it for me and my wife, to live in and to raise children in. Imo It's all about leverage—whether you're leveraging sweat (hustle), capital, youth (time in the market), or privileges like having supportive parents and the ability to take bigger risks. Everyone’s got their own risk tolerance, their own available leverage, and different ways to use it. A lifetime of wealth is created and lost every second and because of the internet you can grab some from the comfort of your desk (or even your phone.) Is it easier if you can dedicate 10 years entirely to that pursuit without distraction? Absolutely. But is it impossible if you're grinding out a full-time job and only have two hours each night and weekends to focus on it? Definitely not. Having the stability of a job is a type leverage in it's own right. We can agree to disagree on some things. I genuinely wish you well, and I hope your hustles eventually grow into something big enough to replace your job—if that's what you're after. Thanks for the thoughtful exchange even though I got a bit heated.

Also, I don't know OP's ethnicity/culture but in some cultures it's normal for descendants to live in houses for generations to come. Especially if the house is paid off, it will be passed generation to generation. Often times, grandchildren / children / grandparents / etc. in the same house. Not to say his spending habits weren't excessive... but if he is able to have expensive toys all while having his living situation + income sorted out... I don't see a huge problem.

I wasn’t speaking about your situation specifically. I was referring more to cases like drug addiction, abuse, or extreme religious environments, etc. I’m also not discounting that divorce makes things harder—of course it does—but there are plenty of kids who grow up successful despite having divorced parents. I fully acknowledge I was (and am currently) extremely fortunate. I never had to worry about homelessness or balancing a job while pursuing entrepreneurial activities. Living at home allowed me to take risks repeatedly without fear of severe consequences. That said, plenty of people succeed despite tougher circumstances, and people with trust funds end up overdosing or crashing and dying in sports cars their parents bought them.

>I wasn’t speaking about your situation specifically.

Living at home allowed me to take risks repeatedly without fear of severe consequences. This is pretty much the crux of my point.  Having the ability to do this from home is already unusual, but It is way, way beyond normal to be blowing superfluous money on toys at the same time.  Good on you for somehow making it all slot into place....but I just can't help but get a weird vibe from it.

>Shoot, I thought it was a luxury for me to buy a 3 year old RX-8 as a graduation present to myself. Buddy, my graduation present was a 10-year-old Camry with 295,000km on the clock. I was happy to have it because it (a) had a manual and (b) was dependable. I’m still happy to have that car. If you bought a stupid fun car like an RX-8 after graduating, I’d say you were doing quite well. You could afford a stupid car that wasn’t cheap to maintain or cheap to run. It took my years before I could make the plunge into similarly stupid cars. You were probably richer than me, but that doesn’t bother me nor do I resent you for it. There’s no reason be bothered by the fact that u/Mojo is richer than both of us. Just the way the cookie crumbles, bud. Some people got the privilege card and that’s okay.

I'm good, man - the RX-8 wasn't the first car I owned, nor did I buy it immediately when I graduated.  I had a Honda Civic with 100k miles on it that I drove for several years after graduating until I bought the Mazda for $16k, and that was only because of working at a dealer and getting it at trade cost.  What I was saying is that I felt like spending $16k as a graduation gift to myself well after the fact was a big splurge, while we have OP living at home with mom and dad while he spends $250-300k on sports cars.  It is literally the meme joke about gen Z come to life.

Congrats! It's always great to see someone buy a childhood poster. The MT Gallardos are amazing cars and will appreciate in value once people realize the premium analog experiences like that command. Just look at where MT 430s are and imho those cars aren't really that good because of the iffy flywheel.

What's wrong with the flywheel of the f430?
View on Reddit #50697878

EmergencyRace7158@reddit

Its very light and spins down too quickly. Makes the cars difficult to drive on the street part throttle. The drivetrain was designed for the F1 gearbox and it shows.
View on Reddit #50712310

Sid-Skywalker@reddit

In this age of cars with rev hang, I'd say a light flywheel is a good thing. Check out the 911 S/T, the biggest draw of that car is its extremely light flywheel compared to a regular gt3. And you surely must have seen how quick the revs fall in a Carrera GT, which supposedly has no flywheel.
View on Reddit #50716152

EmergencyRace7158@reddit

Depends on the use case. For regular street driving where you're shifting at low to mid RPMs you need some inertia. Not saying you want turbo engine levels of rev hang but something to work with at least. Haven't been lucky enough to drive the ST or the Carrera GT but I have driven a 430 MT and it wasn't well suited to just cruising around without revving it out. It reminded me of my old E46 M3 where I put in a motorsports clutch and light flywheel and regretted it within months.
View on Reddit #50756237

Mojo@reddit (OP)

I almost bought an F430 and did a gated conversion on it. I was *this* close to pulling the trigger when this Gallardo popped up. Even made an offer on one. I've heard an LFA in person once and this engine sounds shockingly similar. I think it's very underrated still, most people don't know how different the 5.0 cars sound compared to your average Gallardo/huracan/R8.
View on Reddit #50594328

EmergencyRace7158@reddit

The 5.0s are even firing 72 degree V10s. The 5.2s are odd firing 90 degree V10. Thats why your Gallardo and the LFA scream like a 90s F1 car. My Huracan Evo has more of a burble at low and mid range but can’t match that F1 howl.

Having pushed both on the track- auto versions of both at least, the r8 will always be a faster, arguably better car. But the gallardo is FUN. It’s EMOTIONAL. It’s BEGGING to go faster and shouts with glee about it while you do the same. It’s absolutely the most fun vehicle I’ve ever driven. I would love to own one one day, but for now the second most entertaining vehicle, and a childhood dream of mine, is holding my heart- my e90 m3.

goofygrin@reddit

So all this said when I have like 2 hours of seat time in it so take this with a grain of salt. It also is modified with Penske coilovers and lots of camber :D I have learned I like momentum cars for my fun cars. Dailies I like big powerful sporty cars. My favorite dailies have been my E39 M5 and Tesla Model S P90DL. I’m feeling out this 958 Cayenne turbo I got last year. So far so good. I live in her foothills above Denver. So lots of canyon/mountain roads. Let’s compare the lotus to a couple other cars. In the garage right now. My 30AE Miata RF (mostly stock) and my FD RX7 (RHD). The Miata feels like it revs faster than the Elise. It also has a ton of lean (stock suspension). It is a blast to drive and has all the creature comforts. The powered hard top is especially useful with the variable weather we get. It doesn’t have as direct of steering feel as prior gen Miata’s and definitely not like the Lotus. The RX7 revs faster AND has power. Its steering feels more close to the lotus but not quite as direct. You have to work to be fast. If you’ve seen the video of the Mazda guy talking about how the Miata makes you smile and the RX7 is a serious car this is exactly it. Now the lotus? Obviously you have to pretzel in and out. The steering is heavy, but the right heavy. The small wheel definitely is part of this experience. So far every time I have pushed the car in a corner it hasn’t squawked or complained. I’m assuming I’m not near the edge yet lol. The gears are long and slow to rev - but once you get into the upper band, even before the cam change, everything comes alive. Sure you can tool around at lower revs but what’s the fun in that? I’ll tell you this, at the backroad by my house at double the speed limit the Lotus has more to give. The Miata is there but much floatier. The rx7 is there too but its size and weight makes you a bit more squeamish to be going that hot into the corners. It also got to that speed faster if you didn’t carry in the speed.
View on Reddit #50608836

Mojo@reddit (OP)

Nice breakdown, I appreciate the comparisons. Totally agree about momentum cars—there’s nothing like nailing a perfect corner and feeling the car reward your effort rather than just brute forcing it with horsepower. Funny how each of those cars brings something different to the table that is predictable by looking at it; the Miata sounds a good fucking time, the RX-7 the wild one forcing you to pay attention, and the Elise just locked in, begging you to push harder. Makes sense the Lotus feels like it has endless grip—they look practically glued to the ground. Colorado mountain roads sound like the ideal playground for your lineup, especially the Lotus. Hope you keep finding excuses to pretzel yourself in and out of it! I feel like my entire car ownership experience is neutered because of where I live. Everything is flat and straight, no good roads anywhere close. I try to go on vacations to places with nice roads. I'm planning a trip to do the tail of the dragon finally and stop by the corvette museum. Maybe I should come to Colorado?

-CEL that Indy shop thought was two sensors they replaced for several thousand. Didn't fix it. Took it to Lamborghini dealership and they called me two days later to say it was the same sensors. When I told them the sensors were brand new they eventually found a relay/sensor/I can't remember and fixed the problem. -Reverse taillight went out. Hundreds of dollars -Front right radiator caught a small rock. Thousands of dollars -Rear diffuser broke one of it's mounting brackets. I think those plastic diffusers cost $1800ish iirc -wheel well liner needed replacement -oil leak fix before I sold it Clutch replacement, which I knew going in but that cost about $8k at an Indy. Dealership wanted $16k lol. I don't count that as a problem since it's expected and I knew based on PPI it would likely need a clutch soon.

A friend of mine has a nearly (or maybe even completely) identical one. I can tell you that the best mod anyone has ever done to any car has got to be putting an aftermarket exhaust on one of these. Them being so quiet from the factory absolutely robs you of the incredible sounds it can make. If it's still got a stock exhaust on it, have a listen on youtube for some upgrade ones - I bet you'll find it a worthwhile upgrade.
View on Reddit #50646524

Mojo@reddit (OP)

You have a really cool stable of cars. Thankfully this car has had an exhaust for most of its life. No cats, fully straight piped. It’s loud but not annoying in the cabin. There is an issue with the stock cats where they can overheat and degrade and get cause issues.
View on Reddit #50650541

Terrh@reddit

I almost wondered if it already had an exhaust because of your comment about the sound. Stock exhaust and you can't hardly hear it at all. I was *not* impressed by the car before it had an exhaust. Regarding my stable, thank you! It's actually far more diverse than that but there's only so much room in the flair box. I've got a Suzuki Alto works RS-R, '41 Nash Ambassador, '80 Volvo 245 Wagon, '85 Bombardier Iltis, '95 Evo IV and about a half a dozen non-functional cars as well. Everything is stick (except the Tesla) and everything gets used the way it was meant to get used. Think I'm going to trim the fleet down a bit this year though it's getting hard to maintain everything and find time to drive it all even.

I used to work for a company that had a RENTAL gated Gallardo in yellow. Got up to 80k before the owner took the car back. As far as I know the car is still doing fine. I think the clutch had to be replaced a time or two, but I don't fault the car for that. Just wanted to say that to you so you can probably be a little more at ease with the cars reliability (maintenance being done on time of course). The Lambo V10 is the exotics world's small block Chevy. We also had an E-gear Spyder which was a pile of crap due to the top and transmission. Hydraulic top had issues, and the E-gear was just horrible. The engines in both were fine (rental use and abuse no less). I think mid 2000s and up exotics are more reliable than people realize. My go to dream car is the 458 Italia which I have seen 100k and up miles examples around. We had F430s that were work horses as well.

The DCT in the Huracan is also pretty good. We also had a gated 360 Modena that in my opinion is the best sounding car I have ever head.

Haha you’re 100% right. Every generation of supercar is always praised as being easier drive and more refined than the last—until enough time passes, and suddenly those same cars become the benchmark for rawness and impracticality. Nostalgia is a hell of a drug. This phenomenon isn’t just limited to cars, either. The past always seems rougher yet somehow more authentic. Maybe they’ll say the same thing about the huracan? This is the oldest car I’ve ever driven, besides a 90s Tacoma I think. So it feels antiquated and raw to me. I think if I drove this and a Diablo back to back I’d have a different opinion.

Keep an eye out for any sign of leakage from the high pressure fuel pumps (including yellowish/brown residue, or damp grime), watch for timing cover and cam adjuster solenoid oil leaks, and any cold start rattle/clacking noises. Ever look at repair costs on when an e-gear transmission had a failure? The manual was a good choice.

Was a one owner car for most of it's life. I would never own an e-gear car. Thanks for the advice, if I ever run into anything I can't figure out I'll DM you.
