Exactly, it becomes art if not driven.

Thats how he enjoys cars. My cars are nice drivers but nothing compared to his cosmetically.
To each his own.
Good point. We all have different definitions of what brings us enjoyment. At least your brother drives his cars. My LE just turned 70K mi this wk. It's not going to be a trailer queen when Frodo buys it.

Speaking of trailer queens, 5 or so yrs ago there was an 08 GT3 that was for sale with only 300 mi on it. The only miles were from driving it on and off the trailer to show everyone how pristine it was. Poor GT3, it was longing for a few laps on a track. :dance:
