Here we go into the Spring market

Thank God for Spring. Sixty days from now is smack in the middle of the Spring market. So there is no downside to buying anything at this point. If you recall, last February was the hottest little spurt on heavy sports cars we have seen in decades. Astons, Lambos, SLs and Porches were flat out ripping. We had a wild run with Vettes, Mustang GTs, and SRT8s. A sixty day turn puts you smack in the middle of a wholesale profit if you wake up and use your noggin right now.
I have over 700 units going to the block on Friday. We ain’t loaded for bear, we’re loaded for Noah’s Arc. My theory is simple. We are looking to sell every one with full expectation that we will show up with another 700 next week and the week after and the week after and until I am dead. Simple. I can’t get complicated or scientific with ideas of where to sell and which ones not to sell and it’s a Holiday and it rained or God farted. No. Simple. Buy the sucker and let it rip. Scientists can do the thinking. I am going to do the selling.
I am also trying my talent at poetry. Let me give you a few lines;
I bought 700 cars this week
A new owner for each one I seek,
You can look high and low
But you’ll never find the flow
Of fresh trades that I’m fixing to blow
To take the doe,
And let them go is my motto
Regardless of price or return.
It’s a policy that I follow
To the point of having my pockets hollow
So don’t be a fool and miss out.
Come Friday at four
after they've hit auction floor,
there’ll be one story told
“they’ve all be sold”
And the Lunatic will be back next week with 700 more
Nice eh?
OK. I get it. Stick to what you know.
Not Shakespeare, but he couldn’t buy cars either.
