Oz: Uh, no.
The Enzo Man: I refund what you paid - upfront payment.
Oz: It's not for sale.
The Enzo Man: C'mon, $60K
Oz: No
The Enzo Man: $70K
Oz: No.
The Enzo Man: Okay, $100K and a lavish two-week vacation for you and your family on board of my yacht.
Oz: Actually, no. I repeatedly told the forum fellows at 1addicts.com that I don't intend to sell it in the near future. It's a keeper.
The Enzo Man: Fair enough, I respect that, no sale then -- [Thinks] -- But what about a swap - let's exchange your 1M with one of the many exotics of my stable. Got some sweet goodies.
Oz: Okay, a swap with your Ferrari Enzo or F40 seems an honorable deal to me.
The Enzo Man: Man, I can't go for that. Had to sign a deal with the guys at Maranello.
Oz: I understand -- what about -- [Thinks] -- one of your Pagani cars ?
The Enzo Man: Nah, your kids won't fit in that one either. Got to think about your family, Oz.
Oz: One of your P-cars ...and that yacht trip you were referring to.
The Enzo Man: DEAL !

A few days ago we came accross, me with family and TEM with girl friend/fiance in a restaurant and he asked to go for a lunch with families actually, I wonder what would he feel if I take a print out of this and show to him

You really nail it sometimes Artemis with your pop culture applications and scenarios which are super fun, but attention to detail please: Paganis and Enzo and company are actually belong to his brother's garage (should be size of a warehouse), not his own. Best he has is the Aston, and the NSX and the GT-R and half of their family fortune I think he drives the democratic SUV Range Rover most of the time anyway.

I need to reach out the brother. Damn, life is complicated!

If you really are curious about what is on my mind (TEM concept is a fall back plan) PM me and I'll tell you the basics of the master plan

And if I fail in both plans, guess what: I will continue keeping the 1M, good for me indeed.

p.s. By the way, you people made me go check the Porsche configurator one more time. I feel nothing wrong with a base Boxster or Cayman and not the S versions. At least, I feel less guilty when I load the base car with 25,000 Euro worth options that wouldn't even include CCB, PDK or PCM. Did you know that you could more than double the base price of a Cayman/Boxster by adding options?
