That's not a boomer car. Corvettes are boomer cars.

You're right, they're not boomer cars, they're LVL 90 PEAK BOOMER cars.

Better than the ricers who but a $20k car and dump $100k worth of shit into it.

This is the peak of White Man engineering you stupid poor Canadian faggot.

And a lot more white men could drive these if they weren't demonized and over-taxed just to support shitskin subhumans on welfare.

I dunno but this boomer had a dope whip!!!!!

Then the car would just be more expensive. You're missing the point. It's a luxury item.

In much the same way they acquired enormously expensive houses. The wealth(liquid/assets) they acquired appreciated enormously with the gradual progression of inflation.

Because they've got the money.

Now, the reason they're built (some at least) is because you have more freedom in many areas to create new technologies than in F1 or other racing venues. And many of them trickle down. Getting 300hp from a 4 banger that will last forever is retarded in the scope of automotive history.

>100k

More like buying a 5-12k car and dropping anywhere from 500-10k maybe 20k MAX unless its a track build, which of course may go up far more.
Stickers, Decals, cheap LED's, headlights to the more expensive coilovers, engine swaps and tunes.

Euro cars never excited me

Ferrari's are probably the worst example since their scarcity and low production volumes keep them expensive because they're exclusive, shit like mass produced Porches and the engineered brands like Lambo etc where they literally mass produce as many as they can sell and there is no scarcity is the height of boomer consumer faggotry.

because they're cool

Automotive art and a love of engineering

Go back to the old moneys time.... cars weren’t expensive houses were cheap. Rich people had too much money so they created these products so they themselves can be in this rat race like us

>with the gradual progression of inflation.
property increased in value at a much higher rate than inflation

>What was the point of boomers inventing ridiculously expensive cars?
Boomers didn't invent them. Enzo Ferrari was born in the 1890s and Ferruccio Lamborghini was born in 1916 thus making them part of the GI Generation.

Reason why they were invented was so people could buy them and make Accord driving cucks like you mad.
