In France and it seems like 90% of the cars are manual hatches. This megane caught my eye

No picture, but there was a Veyron parked in front of the Mandarin outside my office yesterday evening. Presumably it belongs to local businessman, vocal Trump supporter, and JST's best friend, Herb Chambers.

I've seen several Veyron's in person, they've always been at car events like Goodwood, Pebble Beach Concours or the Phoenix-area auctions. Never seen one actually on the road...

Herb drives his cars. Before moving to the Mandarin he had a brownstone in the Back Bay with an elevator to get his cars out of the subterranean garage.

Too bad he's such a douche.

He's a billionaire. There are condos on one wing of the Mandarin that go for about $4k/sq.
