·For example, the first 2015 Mustang Shelby GT350 to roll off the production line was auctioned by Ford to charity; it sold for $1M. The retail on those was about $70K, without dealer markup.

·In late but one of the reasons they go crazy for charity is that it's tax deductible
But I think I might be quite low with the estimated value of the car. It was built with Porsche's one-off Sonderwunsch program, which allows customers to build custom one-off Porsches. The minimum starting point for a custom Porsche one-off is an additional $100K and the sky's the limit from there.

·It's just a coffee machine, which I can't get excited about because I don't like coffee. But even if I did, would I want a coffee machine that costs $5k? I very much doubt it. There's another one there that costs $13k. Which is hilarious.
Leva brings with it design, focusing not just on the physical beauty, but also on the satisfaction only found in a truly mechanical system. The user can intervene in the pre-infusion pressure, shot volume and extraction pressure on each group. Leva also greatly improves temperature stability of the traditional lever machine thanks to an innovative PID temperature control. Leva’s digital displays show real time extraction pressure on the coffee puck, the pre-infusion and extraction time as well as the pressure curve of the shot.
Oh, I take it back. Totally worth it. It's mechanical after all, no quartz shitter coffee machines here... 😆

·Fits in perfectly with the usual BS. I would buy a Rocket Espresso machine mind you, but that’s only about £1.5k. Far better design too.

£5k for a coffee machine, some of the best are that price.
