Oh boy, where do I even begin with this wild ride? So, a while back, I stumbled upon some pictures of this insanely cool-looking car, a Lexus LFA, but not just any LFA, a mint green one. I mean, who even thinks of a mint green supercar? But let me tell you, it was love at first sight. I just had to have it, or at least that’s what I thought.
First, I started digging around. Turns out, getting your hands on one of these babies is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Only 500 of these were ever made! And this mint green one? Apparently, there are only two in the whole world, and only one of them is right-hand drive. Can you believe that? I felt like I was on some kind of treasure hunt.
I found out that the car was somewhere in the UK, listed by this dealer called DK Engineering. I must have spent hours just staring at the pictures online, imagining myself cruising down the street in it. Then the reality check hit me hard. It is super expensive, and I’m just a regular guy. I don’t have that kind of cash. I tried to figure out how to buy it.
I read up on what it takes to buy a luxury car like this. You need to be making some serious dough, have a ton of cash for a down payment, and your finances need to be squeaky clean. I’m talking about having income at least the value of the car, cash for at least a 50% down payment, and a low debt-to-income ratio. Yeah, not exactly my situation.
But I wasn’t ready to give up just yet. I started looking into ways to make more money, saving every penny I could. I even considered selling some of my stuff, but let’s be honest, that wasn’t going to make much of a dent. The more I crunched the numbers, the more I realized it was just a pipe dream. The numbers just didn’t add up. My bank account was nowhere near ready for this kind of commitment.
So, here I am, still dreaming about that mint green LFA. I ended up not buying it, obviously, because, well, reality. It’s a bit of a bummer, but hey, it was fun while it lasted, right? Maybe one day, when I hit the lottery or something. Until then, I’ll just keep admiring it from afar.
- I fell in love with a mint green Lexus LFA.
- I discovered it’s super rare, only two made, one right-hand drive.
- I researched how to buy a luxury car.
- I realized I couldn’t afford it.
- I conceded it was a dream, but a fun one.
