It's just cool that they're out driving it and not parking in a climate controlled garage with 3 miles on the odometer.
Cars are for driving, and unfortunately occasionally crashing.

When I read the thread title, I immediately recalled Ferris Bueler's Day Off. Hitting 2 mopeds at 4 MPH really didn't satisfy my curiosity. Just sayin'

Maybe, but rich people also care about $500k. They also probably care about their perfect LaFerrari becoming “tainted” with an accident. Emotional distress!

The guy had a big purse and a cell phone in his hand when getting out. If I ran an upscale place I would want my valets to look and act a little more professional.

Who knows, perhaps it also holds their mascara, lipstick and an extra set of stick-on nails.

I dunno why some men are having fits w what other men are using. Sometimes I carry a lot of crap and if I fit them in my jeans, it looks nasty stretching out all the pockets, never mind it being uncomfy. This way, the ladies can see my sexy butt w/o a tumor-looking thing coming out of it.

Carry on w the valet Ferrari crash talk and enough talk about the murse.

At least the accident is on video. Any prospective buyer shouldn’t be too alarmed by hitting scooters at 3 mph.

The minor accident is karma for not using a turn signal and parking over a cross-walk....
