I watched the whole thing and enjoyed it. That is some impressive pieces of engineering

not sure why the other posts are so negative, I guess jealousy

I personnally couldn't afford to pay the taxes on one of those cars but I have no problem with the guy making a video to document what was probably one of the most exciting days of his life

my only complaint is the color of the P1 and Ferrari, just terrible choice, the white 918 however was fantastic

The cars are cool and the ability for him to own all three is awesome. Good for him.
The fact that he hired a crew to create a movie about it just makes him low class.
Reminds me of people who are always trying to impress us with pictures of who they ate dinner with at a party or what they own. Yawn.

I enjoyed the videos. I think the color of the 918 is great, but I was frustrated at the limited options that are offered. Weird.

I think his logic is that he likes to compare the cars and plans to really use them. I say more power to him.
