I've seen an R8 on the road in Winnipeg, wonder if it was the same kid.

Many professionals are not able to afford an R8 because of our high tax rate (income tax, sales tax, etc..). Running a successful business will give you a lot more room to write off expenses, thus lowering the effective tax rate is the key to get more disposable income.

What about running an unsuccessful business? I see a lot of front shops in my neighbourhood that can't possibly be making money....

Want an R8.......Pimp out the wife, sell the kids to slave labour, mortgage the house to the max and live in a trailer.

Just buy a 1/18 model R8 for the rest of us.

The car had a loud exhaust on it and it was backfiring - not a happy machine.
Ouch!
