Once out of the casino, Dante smiled and checked the GPS through his AI for the most reputable car dealership in the city. Once he got a location, he ordered another Uber and headed straight there while slightly lost in thought.
Once he arrived, Dante saw a large showroom building that was pretty high tech and very fancy. In the parking lot were many expensive and powerful cars that would have the average car enthusiast drool.
This dealership was called the PowerMotors Outlet and it was where all the top vehicle brands like Lamborghini, Ferrari, Bugatti and Maserati were sold and even registered. Dante checked with his AI chip by hacking into the network and found that behind this dealership were many powerful factions and billionaires.
This amused him as he walked to the entrance and was met with a young woman with freckles and a blonde bobcut who looked hurried. Seeing a handsome young man like Dante, her eyes lit up and she rushed over to him.
"Hello sir, my name is Sarah, how can I help you today?" She asked with enthusiasm.
Dante smiled at Sarah with amusement at her actions and replied. "Hello, Sarah. I'm looking to explore the cars available here at PowerMotors Outlet. I'm interested in purchasing a new vehicle today."
Sarah nodded, her excitement evident. "That's great! We have a wide selection of luxury and high-performance vehicles. Is there a particular brand or model you're interested in?"
Dante pondered for a moment before answering, "I'm open to exploring different options. I'd like to see what you have to offer from Lamborghini, Ferrari, Bugatti, and Maserati."
Sarah's eyes sparkled, knowing that this young man was likely the son of a big and powerful person, so therefore was a powerful customer.
"Excellent choices! Let me show you our collection. We have the latest Lamborghini Aventador, Ferrari 488, Bugatti Chiron, and Maserati GranTurismo. Each one is a masterpiece in its own right." Sarah spoke as she gestured for Dante to follow her.
As they walked through the showroom, Dante couldn't help but admire the sleek lines and exquisite designs of the cars on display. The shimmering exteriors and luxurious interiors were truly captivating.
As someone who played Project Gotham Racing, Midnight Club, Juiced, Need for Speed, Forza and Asetto Corsa when he was young, he was definitely a top car enthusiast.
Sarah pointed towards a vibrant red Lamborghini Aventador and said, "This is the Aventador, a true symbol of power and prestige. It boasts a V12 engine, producing over 700 horsepower. It can go from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.9 seconds. The price for this beauty starts at $400,000."
Dante's heart pounded with excitement. After all, how would you feel if you had disposable funds and were standing before one of the cars you could only 'drive' using a joystick during your childhood?
"Impressive! What other options do you offer?" Dante feigned calmness and folded his arms.
Sarah led him to a stunning yellow Ferrari 488 and continued, "Here we have the Ferrari 488, known for its impeccable performance and stunning aesthetics. It features a twin-turbocharged V8 engine, generating 661 horsepower. It accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 3 seconds flat. The price for this masterpiece begins at $350,000."
Dante nodded, taking in the details. "Amazing. And what about the Bugatti Chiron and Maserati GranTurismo that you mentioned?"
Sarah gestured towards a striking black Bugatti Chiron and a sleek silver Maserati GranTurismo. "The Bugatti Chiron is the epitome of speed and luxury. With its quad-turbocharged W16 engine, it produces a mind-blowing 1,500 horsepower. It's one of the fastest cars in the world, reaching a top speed of 261 mph. The starting price for the Chiron is $3 million."
She then turned her attention to the Maserati GranTurismo. "The GranTurismo combines elegance with thrilling performance. Its V8 engine delivers 454 horsepower, and it's equipped with advanced technology and luxurious features. The starting price for the GranTurismo is $150,000."
Dante couldn't help but be captivated by the range of options before him. He was sad that his 2.1 million dollars he won from the casino could not buy the Bugatti, but it was not that big a deal. Not to mention, that money was reduced by the 3% commission he gave his agent who must be going crazy by now at the prospect of earning a free $63,000.
That was more than his annual salary for Christ's sake!
Not to mention… taxes. Yes, many people often forgot to mention this part about earning quick funds when they either go back in time and take advantage of opportunities or suddenly score it big.
Calculating everything, he would have to pay $777,000 as taxes, as the Federal tax rate was 37% on income above $523,600. A huge chunk of the money was gone just like that, and he would have to patiently hand it over to the government with his two hands.
How hateful!
This left him with 1.26 million. Looking at the options he had, Dante decided to purchase one vehicle for himself and then one for his mother. He would consider his father, but that man did not care about flashy cars and had other interests, and Dante knew what to get him.
With that in mind, he thanked Sarah for the information and said. "These are all incredible choices. I'll need some time to decide. Can you provide me with brochures or any additional information?"
Sarah nodded with a smile. "Of course! Here are some brochures for each model, complete with specifications and features. Take your time to explore and feel free to ask any questions. When you're ready, I'll be here to assist you with the purchasing process."
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm Dante accepted the brochures and moved to sit down. "Thank you, Sarah. I'll take my time to review them. Once I've made a decision, I'll come back to finalize the purchase."
Dante waved casually and moved to the reception's waiting area and began delving into the brochures, immersing himself in the world of high-performance cars, each one holding the promise of an exhilarating driving experience.
He eventually decided to get himself a Bentley and his mother a Range Rover with custom alloyed wheels. With that in mind, he walked to Sarah and indicated she should take him to the section for both vehicles.
Sarah nodded with a smile, understanding Dante's decision. "Certainly, I'll be happy to show you the Bentley and Range Rover sections. Follow me."
Noticing the other customers being guided around by young, beautiful ladies, Dante followed Sarah to the Bentley section first.
"Here we have the Bentley Continental GT." Sarah said, pointing to a sleek black model.
"It's known for its elegant design, powerful engine, and luxurious interior. The starting price for this model is $220,000. We also have other variations and customization options available to suit your preferences."
Dante ran his fingers along the smooth surface of the car, envisioning himself behind the wheel. "I like the sophistication and performance of the Continental GT. It's a classic choice. Please provide me with more details and options for customization."
Sarah handed Dante a brochure specifically for the Bentley Continental GT, detailing its specifications, features, and available customization options. Dante delved into the brochure, studying every aspect with keen interest.
Once Dante had familiarized himself with the Bentley, Sarah guided him to the Range Rover section. They stopped in front of a stylish silver Range Rover Velar.
"Here we have the Range Rover Velar, a versatile and luxurious SUV." Sarah explained.
"It offers a combination of comfort, off-road capabilities, and advanced technology. The starting price for this model is $60,000. We also have other Range Rover models to choose from, each with its own unique features and specifications."
Dante admired the sleek design of the Range Rover Velar, imagining his mother enjoying the comfort and style it offered. "I think the Range Rover Velar would be a perfect fit for my mother. Could you provide me with more information about this model and any available customization options?"
Sarah handed him a brochure dedicated to the Range Rover Velar, showcasing its features, technology, and available customization choices. Dante took his time examining the brochure, envisioning how his mother would feel driving the SUV.
After carefully reviewing the brochures for both the Bentley and Range Rover, Dante approached Sarah once again. "I've made my decisions. I'd like to proceed with the purchase of the Bentley Continental GT for myself and the Range Rover Velar for my mother. Could you assist me with the necessary paperwork?"
Sarah's face lit up with excitement. "Absolutely! Congratulations on your choices. I'll gather all the necessary paperwork and guide you through the purchasing process. Please follow me to our client lounge, where we can finalize the details."
Dante followed Sarah to the client lounge, feeling a mix of satisfaction and anticipation. Just imagining how he would feel seated in that sleek car and the surprise and joy on his mother's face, Dante felt truly grateful for the Eternal Universe's existence.
