I didn't check the price of a Rolls Royce or Lamborghini. My dad would turn over in his grave if he thought I was driving one of those "cheap foreign cars".
Well the base price on the RR Cunninan is over $350,000; the base price of the Lamborghini Urus is over $225,000. Both are way above my pay grade.

I am still driving a 2017 SUV. It runs and drives just fine. I bought it in late December of 2016 trading in a 2004 model I had owned 13 years.
