I worked at a pizza place in highschool and one of our delivery drivers was an elderly guy who drove your typical delivery driver beat up old Honda Civic type car. He was a super nice guy, but never talked much about himself. Then one day he shows up to work in a Maserati because apparently his Civic wouldn't start. Turns out he was a crew member with freaking Jacques Cousteau and was very wealthy. He just delivered pizza for something to do and because he liked meeting new people.

He eventually sold the Maserati to one of my coworkers for a couple of thousand of dollars because it needed a new fuel pump and he didn't feel like dealing with it. Yet, he kept that sun bleached Civic for as long as I worked there.

Civic was probably a better car.

No probably about it, the new car somehow already had a broken fuel pump 😂

You have to hand it to Italians, they know how to sell faux luxury brands.
