    Yeah, they'll make fun of it, and it'll air on BBC America in nine months.

    What jobs in Lufkin pay enough to buy a Bugatti? :eek: It's time to move out of Houston.

    Yeah, I try to avoid class envy as much possible; but this is pure, unadulterated "douchebag justice."

    You guys are a bunch of whiny losers. Saying no one deserves to buy something because its too expensive.

    There is always a bigger fish out there. I'm sure if you spent $40k on a car to someone in India or Africa or Vietnam that is just pure unadulterated excess. I'm sure if you have two televisions in your house you're just a greedy 'douchebag' according so some in the poorest regions of the world.

    Some families save up to go to KFC once a year in poor nations. If you go twice in a day aren't you the a-hole?

    Someone made the money and can spend it how they like.

    Stop being loser haters. The guy paid over a million for a car and is a jackass for ending up in the water but its his loss.

    ^^^

    There was no pelican after all. The idiot crashed it into the water with no other cars or pelicans around him.

    If the insurance company sees this video, is he screwed on the insurance claim?

    Andy House is the same guy, who lost his Ferrari Enzo to Eddie Griffin. Andy House owns a luxury car restoration business and is one of the biggest salvage buyers in the world.

    I wonder if this is a publicity stunt in a recession to show his great luxury car restoration skills. He drives the Bugatti into the water on purpose and blames it on a pelican or cellphone. One month later, he comes back with a restored Bugatti and does interviews with the international and american media.

    Exactly this. If you were a billionaire (not that this guy is), you would live off of $250k and then give the rest away? BS.

    Yeah. That's wild that someone has footage of it. I'm certain he didn't plan on that. Just goes to show you the crazy stuff that goes on in the world now that everyone has a video recorder.
    And yeah, I think he's screwed on his insurance if they get a hold of this.

    I heard this car was seen driving all over Houston the day of and a coworker showed me a quick pick of it parked on the curb in front of a small house.
