Baddest road car ever is correct. That's the only exotic I would buy if I was in that income bracket.

How true this is. I honestly think, though, that the car would not depreciate a wink if the new owner drove the crap out of it. It's an F1; what's going to make it depreciate? The thing would probably still be worth a million bucks as a smoldering heap after an engine fire.

I say drive it and at least let some of us plebs hear it blasting around a track.
