What a waste. If it doesn't kill him and/or someone else I'll be surprised.

Oh don't get me wrong. I would have been too. I also know how it would have ended up.

Unless he has strict supervision while driving that car, you can bet your last dollar that we will see it again on the internet as a mangled piece of shit and he will be dearly departed. I guess for the uber wealthy, gifts like that make sense. To me, not so much.

Last time is was in Kaohsiung driving a Corolla in the streets was never racking and painful. I hope they fixed the roads and got most of the dogs out of the streets.

Couple years ago when the GTR first came out we had a customer that bought his son one as a high school graduation present. Just what every 18 year old needs. $91,000, 190 mph sports car.

Funny thing is two months later it came into the shop. Seems the dad was hot-dogging it a little, got off onto the shoulder and slung a rock through the radiator. Then he ran it hot, twice (told us so), and fried the engine, trans, and rear diff since all are liquid cooled.
Nissan refused to warranty it since it was caused by damage and he admitted running it hot. The GTR had 2300 miles. Insurance company totaled it.
