Haha morries maserati/bentley FTW

5 years ago you used to see a bentley once or twice a year. People said "there'll never be a bentley dealership in minnesota, Minnesotans are too conservative."

And morries (and the 2 other companies that fought for the rights to a bentley dealership) said "No, its just that Minnesotans don't want to ship their cars to chicago to get serviced."

maserati opened up, suddenly everybody had a one, then bentley opened and now you see 2 bentleys a day. People drive them all winter. Someone in town has a 08 white arnage super stretch. It's gastly. It makes my inner baller sad. Ruinses it.


When I drove by there and saw the 8C I was like what?? how does minnesota have one of those so soon??

That paint changes colors as you drive past it. It's pretty awe inspiring.

Cloverleaf, or Quadrifoglio, badges denote high-end in comfort and engine size variants of Alfa Romeo cars, but previously denoted Alfa Romeo racing cars in the pre-Second-World-War era. The image first appeared in 1923 when Ugo Sivocci presented one prior to the start of the 14th Targa Florio as a good luck token to the team. This became the symbol of competition Alfas, denoting higher performance.
