Why should it be purchased as nothing else but a toy? It is just a car the same as any other one out there when you boil it down to the basics. Mine is not a toy in any way shape or form. It is a workhorse that gets me around that get's played with sometimes but not a toy.




If you count inflation, cost of upkeep and storage the RS 2 would probably have to sell for around $80K to be "more" than the initial $30K. I don't see that happening. Ever.
