I live in Dubai. There is no lack of super cars on the streets. The other day a cybertruck was parked outside my window and this group of teenagers spend a long time posing in front of it taking group pictures and individual pictures.

You don’t see that with a Ferrari or Rolls Royce.

It is definitely going to be a collectors items, if it isn’t already.

That’s not gonna pay the bills for Tesla, but I guess it’s something.

You know what else you don't see with Ferraris? People lining up to spit on them.

The real deal in case anyone prefers literal spitting.

Which is strange considering that a Ferrari is typically much more expensive, much more polluting, and possibly even less useful.

The Ferrari arguably wins on aesthetics and engineering but I'm not sure that's the reason people aren't spitting on them.
