Cool, so is that deal available to all?

Imagine as a non-billionaire/famous asking for such terms at purchase.

Ffs I was paying cash for a new car and they said they wanted to run my credit.. I said FU and had to threaten to leave if they wanted the sale, why run credit on a cash purchase?

But I don't expect that most dealers will give you a jobs-like deal? Or is this normal?

It’s a short-term car lease. Nothing new.

Thanks, I was led to believe all these years that he had some sort of weird loophole he was exploiting... and I always found that weird, like, he had enough money to buy a new car every day if he wanted, so I never understood the impetus.
