"Nah, I'm not quite that selfless." He laughed. "My 19th birthday is this week, figured I'd get myself something nice for a change." His eyes kept on that Gallardo out front, wondering how much the price tag was.
His face grew a smile as Brian gingerly drove it off the lot and down the street. "That's a boxer engine for ya, they have a very unique tone." He paused. "Now you and Jack can argue EVO vs STI all day." He said comically.

"Im sure that's gonna happen although there's going to be less talk and more driving." He pressed down on the gas a little to test how easily it would take off. "Sorry bro but I have to go for a spin around the block before we can satisfy your granter needs." The words were out and his foot on the bottom panel, clutch, gas, shifting, shifting, drifting around the corner. Even though the car wasn't supposed to be driven hard for a while it was just too tempting. From the first moment Brian loved the car even though it still felt strange to him after driving Skylines for such a long time. "I love you, man, I love you. You don't know how happy you made me." With a side glance at Cole he added. "What do I owe you for it?" Teasingly he added. "I don't do blow jobs!"

"I know the exact feeling." He laughed, he wasn't quite anticipating this much of a reaction from Brian, but then again, if he was broke and with no car, then even a civic hatchback would've made him sing praises. "You know, you're supposed to break these things in for the first thousand miles." He smirked. Of course Brian had to be showing off all the items in his skill bag, it was entertaining though. "I've gotten an idea how much." He further laughed. "You can pay me back by not constantly telling me how stupid I was to take mob duty. BJ's are for the weak anyway."

"I can do that." Brian replied because he wasn't going to mention the mob any more anyway. "You always get you panties in a knot so that topic is gone." He took the next corner very close to the curb and enjoyed how well his new car reacted. "Oh I can't wait to put this baby to work. Finally I can make some money of my own." The smile was plastered on his face for the next three years. The last statement about Bjs seemed a bit strange to him since he had never heard it before so he shrugged. "Call me weak then." The shop window came in sight again and with it all the things he could never afford but Cole could due to his illegal activities with the mob.

"Just try to not bury it in the fence anytime soon." He hung on to the armrest as the Subi pulled a G through the corner. Soon they came back to the Lamborghini dealership, and that gorgeous Gallardo presented itself to his eyes once more. He knew he wasn't smart enough to resist it, he always dreamed of a lambo when he was a kid. "Man, today could get expensive." He shook his head and laughed.

The amount of money you have at your expense should tell you something, bro." Brian couldn't help but let off another warning but then quickly shut up. "Just saying..." He lifted his hands in defense as he got out of his brand spanking new car and looked back at it ion awe.
POnce again he clapped his friend on the shoulder. It was hard to believe that he'd give him such a big present after what happened in Tokyo. "I guess you wanted me back on the streets so you have some real competition."
They approached the Lamborghini and Brian fell silent. This dealership was almost like a shrine. The cars here were sacred so he lowered his voice. "What's the price tag on this one again?"

Cole chuckled a bit at Brian's gesture. "Look man, I was a bit of a jackass myself in Japan. It's water under the bridge now. You need a way to make money, no better way than earning a living by driving." He smiled and then brought his eyes back to the black Lambo in front of them. It was absolutely gorgeous, he wasn't sure he wanted to look at the price sticker, even though he knew he could probably afford it easily. An exceptionally well dressed salesman gingerly walked out to the patio they were standing on and greeted them with a slight Italian accent. "What are you asking for this Gallardo?" Cole quizzed as he took a peak inside to make sure it was a 6 speed manual and not some stupid paddle shift automatic. "One six two." The italian answered. "162 thousand?" Cole grinned and nodded his head, that was doable. He turned to Brian with a bit of smirk. "Think I should?"

It was hard to keep a straight face when the asking price of a car was more than Brian would earn in 3 years. Yet he kept a straight face and his eyes on the price. "I think you should find a dealership that'll give it to you for 158 or give you a small apartment to complement the car." He gave the salesman a straight in the face look. "How many of these do you sell a year?"
Of course Brian wanted Cole to buy the car. Maybe he'd get to drive it, too, but the salesman didn't need to know that.

Cole let out a small laugh and shook his head. "There's no bargaining on these deals, man." The harsh reality of it was that these dealerships always took the stand that if you had to wheel and deal with them, you probably couldn't afford it anyway, so they'd just let you go. The salesman shrugged. "This particular model." He paused. "20 or 30 a year."
Cole turned his attention back to the italian. "162 huh." He looked over the car once more, obviously wanting it. "Alright, deal. Where do I sign?"

"I never owned that much money before." Brian admitted when he listened to Cole simply agree to putting that kind of money on the table. Shaking his head Brian took a stroll through the row of expensive cars. One was more exclusive than the other but they weren't exactly his taste. He liked them fast, high end parts but not too many extras as long as there was a good stereo inside. Maybe if he was rich he'd care for those kind of things.
The sales agent became very fast and very polite when he understood how easily he could close a huge deal that would mean a nice profit for himself. "Would you like to come in and sign the papers right away? Do you drink champagne, sir?" He asked without questioning Cole's age. It didn't matter if he had that sort of money.
OOC: I'm so sorry, I've been such a slacker.

"With big risk comes big reward, my man." He said quietly to Brian. He had to admit that it did feel somewhat validating that after all this time of Brian constantly calling him out on this mob deal, that he could finally see what exactly Cole was talking about.
"That'd be fine." Cole nodded and followed the Italian inside, taking one more glance at the car that was soon to be his. "Can't, underage." He didn't want to take any risks since he knew his age would be disclosed at some point in the transaction.
He pulled out his checkbook, wrote one for 162k plus the ridiculous taxes on such a car, and signed on the dotted line. Soon enough the rather painless purchase was complete, car buying went a lot smoother when you didn't have to ask the bank for a loan.
