Worst part about it was the dude was across the street in class while I was sitting there left to sweat it.

Anyway, I waited outside for him to get back, as I knew what my first reaction would be if I saw my car there like that, with insurance info in hand hoping I could afford to pay for it out of pocket rather than go through insurance.

About 30 minutes later a Saudi Arabian fellow come hopping along, stopped when he saw his car, and I ran out to him. His reaction "don't sweat it, the marks will buff right out and I was going to get some rims because I hated the hubcaps. I'm not mad, thank you for waiting to tell me."

I offered repeatedly to let me replace the damaged hub cap and repeatedly he refused. I didn't scratch the paint as I backed into him with my bad ass rear end of plastic but some paint did transfer.

Point is quite a few people would so take advantage of this but this dude didn't even want to hear about me trying to make it even.

Yep. Lamar Hunt drove a Ford Fiesta. He thought spending money on cars was a huge waste of money, a sentiment many millionaires agree on.

The difference between the middle class and the upper class, car payments. Don't have them.

You are a knucklehead. Good thing his car bomb didn't go off when you hit him. If I was you, I would come out of the closet and admit you are gay. Just be sure to take your headphones off first before you jaywalk across the street if any cops from Austin are around.

I wouldn't spend 40-50 grand on a car if I was a millionaire. That's an ungodly waste of money.

I think it just boils down to what's important to you. I don't really give two shits about how my car looks, how fast it can goes, or how many superfluous features the designer was able to cram into it. All cars do the same shit- get you from point A to point B. I'd prefer mine do it as reliably and economically as possible as opposed to as sexy and quickly.
