And for the Ferrari thing, at least in the UK, the insurance is also much higher on sports cars in the UK, as is road tax, etc. So higher maintainance costs also apply there. Thus lending extra credence to the idea I suggested. With adjusted numbers and/or timeframes (so they're more accessible), would you still call me a troll, or would you be more willing to entertain the idea?
Meh, I disagree with the idea of maintenance fees. Using real-life examples doesn’t really sell the idea to me either. I already pay a mortgage IRL; I’d rather not have to maintain one in a video game, too.
