I read a post a few days ago about some guy earning the cost of his 2005 Turbo Cab in one night through his club, Crobar. Is this the same guy or lately do we just have an influx of people wanting to tell us how special they are?

Cultural Differences between Coasts!!!
Some twenty years ago I moved from New York City to Los Angeles. After attending my first party in LA I noticed a cultural difference between the coasts. People at the party would boast that the watch, clothes, cars, etc. that they had, they bought at Tiffany etc. for full price. In NYC people would boast at parties how they took the picture of the diamond ring in the Tiffany catalog to 47st Street and had the ring copied and had a much better stone put in for less than half the price. This was true in NYC for cars as well [I got it at a dealer in NJ for much, much less.]For clothes, I found this guy that has just arrived from Italy and he is a master tailor and makes my clothes for much less. In general this was one of the cultural differnces I noticed between the coasts.
Happy New Year guys!!!

Seriously, it has nothing to do with what coast you are on. It has to do with what group of jackasses you run with. My mom has friends in Roslyn on Long Island who also brag about paying full pop - as if paying more makes them better than the other guy.
There is no doubt a cultural difference between coasts. It just doesn't apply here.

No Difference-both are a--holes!!!
Attn: Beavis
I agree with you wholeheartedly.
I guess what I was also trying to imply was that the people boasting in NYC and the people boasting in LA both were probably lying to make themselves look important, just the lie was different.
Regards!!!

I've been to Newport Auto Center and seen trade-ins with less than 500 miles on them in the currrent model year. As an example, the 911 Turbo was no longer good enough because the "S" came out. The stories are just as crazy down the street at Newport Autosport (now Ferrari Newport Beach)
People compete with each other through their kids. The buy their kid a new M3, just to top the other kid whose parents just bought his kid a 330iS. Sit at the fountain at Fashion Island sometime and people watch and you will see some really stupid stuff.
This place amazes me. The good thing is, in spite of the eliteists, it's a safe place to live. I dont have to worry about my wife getting mugged at the ATM and my kid will go to a good school system.

I'm new here. I have mortgage, and loans on both my wife's truck and my car. My 12 yr old VFR and 9 yr old PU I own free and clear.
I live and work in one of the poorest states of the nation, guess I'm a loser.
Or maybe some people's priorities are ....
