I didn't really think it was him...just another example of the same type.

He is obviously a quant "quantitative analyst", Wall Street speak for a guy who analyzes market behavior mathematically. With all the bot trading going on these days, many of these guys are making obscene amounts of money. WS salaries are already ridiculous - a good quant has a lot of competition for his services.
There is nothing like all that positive reinforcement to create a Pesto-like personality. |

What exactly makes you think it's him? I read the whole thread.

I wouldn't say he's returned to rennlist. The thread is almost a year old.........

I remember seeing this thread last year. Someone pointed out that it was him. I'm sure he knows what a "Quant" is but is just pretending to be one. It is good to I.D. him so you don't waste a precious second believing a single word he says/types.

I don't think it's Pesto. I picture Pesto to be a bit older and certainly longer winded.
Good on this guy for the purchase. If I had $150 large sitting around that wasn't needed for food, shelter, or retirement it would take me about 5 minutes to decide I "needed" a GT3RS. Of course I driven one if ever so breifly so maybe it's not such a rash decision for me.

I'm completely confused by this thread about a thread...
![]() A guy goes on a car board asking if anyone knows a dealer in his area that has a rare model sports car in stock for immediate delivery. What am I missing here, other than some hating(?) Who cares?

Is this the same guy with the fake 73 RS on the 911 forum?

I have a buddy who impulsively walked into Beverly Hills Ferrari last week and bought a new 599. You'd hate him but he's a pretty nice guy. He's going to let me drive it, therefore nice guy.
![]() Is this guy on Rennlist a big braggart or something? I don't make it over to that board much.

I thought the thread was pretty funny, in a sad way!!!!
Here's a guy who asks for some info on where to locate a car for the coming weekend, he buys one quickly and suddenly he's like everyone's hero and it's the most awesome thread ever ..... As far as I could see, all they failed to do was give him a reach around ![]() I thought it was cool he could buy the car he wanted so quickly, but now he's their hero - oh what a material world we live in ![]()

I say bravo to a guy that can buy an GT3-RS on a whim, and I can see how that's considered cool on a GT3 forum. But it doesn't really tell me anything about him as a person. My idea of an impulse buy is a cheeseburger. My boss's daily drivers are a 458 Italia and a 599 GTO, but only because he doesn't like driving his Keoniggsegg every day. More power to him. There are those that probably hate me for the burger too. ![]() |

I did not read the whole thread but got the impression that he'd been looking for a certain car for a while and ran out of patience or just got the bug to get it *now*...
For whatever reason, I've never been plagued with jealousy. I have plenty of other character flaws, of course. ![]()
