Default New car Prices

Today when I was dropping a car off at the Lambo dealer, I guy was trading in a 2003 Mercedes S500 with 7,000 miles on it (THIS CAR WAS MINT) and he was writting a check (Yes writing a check) for $177,000 for a new Gallardo. My question is WHY? Their ia a waiting list for the new Ferrari on a first come serve basis at $250,000. The new Benz, posted here, I see is around $400,000. Who are these people buying these cars? Now I like cars as much as anyone, but even if I had that kind of money, how do you justify any car is worth that much. ? I heard that the gentleman in there today, was taking a $35,000 hit on a car he drive for 3 months? I don't know, maybe I'm just too grounded, or just too poor. Bottom line, I'll take my Cruiser, thank you. [?]
