Yeah, if you ever wondered who was buying all those sketchy-looking sex pills you always see displayed on the gas station checkout counter, next to the lottery ticket machine, it's Quattroporte Man! 🤮

I believe it. First time I ever saw one in real life was as a freshman in college, in a "big city" (Ann Arbor, MI) with all sorts of cars I'd never seen IRL before. It was parked outside of a house clearly filled with students (ie, the niceness of the house did not match the niceness of the car). :lol:
