The real answer is that they never had the money in the first place.

The ND is something I want but at the same time it's Rosalyn and what I really want is a Juliet. I don't just want a good car, I want it to stir my soul. Something I want even though I shouldn't, something that causes way more trouble than it's worth and costs way more money than it could ever justify.

On paper, in interviews.. we all ask for Rosalyns but when it shows up on the showroom floor we're disappointed it's not a Juliet.

I think the FRS is somewhere in between the two and for me that's really what I wanted and didn't know until it existed.
