Similarly, if you piss off Ferrari, they’ll ban you from buying another.
Yeah but they won't take away the one you have
Give them a few years. If it's not explicitly illegal every car company will do eventually.
Depends. Some of them require a full Ferrari support crew and can only run at Ferrari-approved tracks.
Yeah we don't really care about the rights a few billionaires may have to play with the toys whose cost could have fed countless families.
My outrage only works up to a... Idk, 300k€ price?
I choose to read this as 300 kiloeuro.
Which would work as intended no? 1 kiloeuro would be 1000 euros ergo 300000 euros. Maybe I'm just dumb and that was the point if so carry on lol
Absolutely. I'm just accustomed to seeing the currency sign on the left and prefix abbreviation on the right (ex. €300k). Generally, it gets "expanded" to thousand, million, etc. So, three-hundred thousand euro. The things that amused me is thinking of a kiloeuro as a measurement unit, rather than a currency unit.
Lol yeah I see that I think what could have made it a step up in amusement is had they expressed the amount in British pounds. It would of seemed like a peak British moment of mixing imperial units with metric units and seeing a kilo pound would have just sent me rolling XD
This guy metrics.
