Didn't Ken King used to stop at bus stops and offer people rides downtown?

I recall a story about him stopping at the downtown direct stop and offering random people a ride.

Everyone gravitates towards money. Motives will differ, but this here is not news nor surprising. It is humorous however.

I thought it was funny that the "bigger girl" in the second video had more brains than her friend who went into the lambo. Stereotypes confirmed! lol

Was it more sense, or the fact that he waved her off to point at her friend?

My brother has a Gallardo, which is lower end on the Lambo hierarchy, but the amount of attention you get when driving it is absolutely crazy. People wave, try to call out to you to stop, heads turn everywhere. Its almost disconcerting.

It was cheaper than a new Audi R8 at the time, affordable for many people if that's where your priorities lie. He's also had offers to sell it, from the dealership he purchased it from, for more than he paid.

Edit: Also prone to random stops from the cops.

She was saying no from the beginning, well before he shushed her. Could be that she was sick and tired of the friend getting all the attention so it's an automated reaction at this point and instantly says no to everything.

Maybe the friend is a lesbian and while the car is interesting, the guy just wasn't. Forever friend zoned...

Quite the pick-up line:

Doesn't that actually exist? As in, a club where you can "borrow" high-end cars for a few days once every few months, and it costs like a few thousand a year? Needs enough members to be viable and affordable, and you can't just take whatever car whenever you want, but I recall hearing about that a while back.

I just don't get this, success is attractive, both genders. I've been talking to some successful women after the TV show and I can't deny the fact they have lots of money is a big plus, I'm sure for women that pull is even more but like Photon said if a rich woman asked me for a ride in a lambo I'd go!

Yes. The Shanghai girl is thinking far ahead. If I marry this guy with a lambo I'l be set for life and not have to work.

I'd like to think girls here are more independent.

I don't see how this is a surprise to anyone.

Women want men that are typically successful. A man would typically have to be successful to own a Lamborghini. I think to a woman it is less about the car, and more about what it takes to get one.

As much as romantic comedies have taught us the awkward, bus riding, library dwelling bookworm will always win out in the end, over the rich stock broker dude. It simply isn't true.

As long as your car isn't an absolute crapbox, you look decent, and the inside of your car/apartment are clean, you win.

6-8 versus a 9.5-10?

Pay attention, here's the thick of the plot
I pulled up to the corner at the end of my block
That's when I saw this beautiful girlie girl walking
I picked up my car phone to perpetrate like I was talking
You should've seen this girl's bodily dimensions
I honked my horn just to get her attention
She said, "Was that for me?"
I said, "Yeah"
She said, "Why?"
I said, "Come on and take a ride with a helluva guy"
She said, "How do I know you're not sick?
You could be some deranged lunatic"
I said, "C'mon toots - my name is the Prince
Beside, would a lunatic have a Porsche like this?"
She agreed and we were on our way
She was looking very good and so was I, I must say - word
