I can just go rent them. But right now I have two houses under my name, both worth $1.2M & 1.5M each. Ok, it's not my money but my parents bought two extra homes in cash and never bought an exotic. So I don't know if buying two houses in cash before an exotic must mean exotics won't give much benefit compared to a house.

I think I rather save up for that new Tesla Roadster for $200k. I think it's a better value and it will go faster than Lamborghinis, and has a large 600 mile battery per charge. That car I could see something that will pay itself off not having to refuel for $80 each time. Plus electric cars are the future. Eventually all these gas based exotics will just be fancy paperweights, so renting seems like the best option right now. 0 to 60 in 1.9 seconds, don't know any car that can do that for $200k, possibly faster than a Bugatti? Also seems more reasonable that it's only a few 100k rather than half a million dollars.
