    I recorded an entire WEEN concert on MD with a pretty decent microphone and uploaded it to their bootleg site.

    *They have open recording policy.

    So what’s the best way to dodge the luxury tax?

    Buy a property in Montana and buy vehicles south of the border/register them down south?

    Great way to shoot yourself in the foot, Canada.

    Property in Montana is already a smart idea. I love Montana.

    I’ll start looking too.

    Just drove through Leavenworth, Washington. Weird town trying to be German but beautiful and some of the homes outside it were incredible for under $1m.

    No buying property required... The vast majority of guys doing this simply register a Montana LLC.

    Very different though for a Canadian resident to pull off buying a US car under a MT LLC and driving the car in Canada... Lots of very rich guys, with lots of resources and motivation ($ on $$$$$$$$ cars) haven't been able to pull it off.

    That said, I think our very own @rage2 did something like this with his CLK BS...

    All you need is a US address, so rent or buy a derelict property for cheap AF and you’re good to go.

    Better yet. Cut the whole Canada part of it out of the equation.

    Got $2400 more than I paid for 335d after 21 months, downside is that’s still a pretty large loss still due to multiple shops diagnosing it incorrectly and causing major un needed repairs to be undertaken.

    I’m pretty close to getting out. “Home” in Washington or Montana and “vacation property” in whistler is becoming the plan. Just have to find the right spots.

    Anyways, the market seems to just be getting worse. Saw a targa 4s come up for sale at $220,000 today from August. Just bonkers. Name:  7DD81AB5-710C-4550-8E7D-4301D567D876.jpg

    TBH I find August and Sherwood Motorcars as one of the biggest rip-off dealerships. Almost everything they sell is way too obviously overpriced.

    Yeah they’re a bunch of wankers and I wouldn’t suggest doing anything with them.

    Needed to store my car for a few days instead of the airport and came back to find +25km on my huracan despite them promising to keep it “on location”. Clowns.

    Yea the way I see them mark-up the cars so shamelessly, it's insane. I get that it's a dealership and make money, but have an iota of shame. Surprisingly people keep keeping them in business. They recently listed (not sure if sold now) a Aston Martin Vantage F1 edition for 259K, having paid 179K for it. I guess it's a business who wouldn't wanna maximize their profit if they can and if people are going to fall of it. I dunno just rubs me the wrong way, makes me never want to deal with them even though I do have a guy there.

    to be fair, your lambo is fucking awesome, and if you stored it at my house, it would magically get some miles on it.
