Jesus Christ you're right, the Golf R is $10,000 cheaper than the base model Macan and weights 800 lbs less

I have heard that the Macan has more suspension travel and so it has a more comfortable ride on rough roads, so it's the perfect vehicle for bourgeoisie comfort and crumbling infrastructure

The entire point of luxury goods is to signal to other people that you can throw away a bunch of money for status.

For instance, a $50 watch tells the time perfectly well. A Rolex says "I have $9950 to burn."
