The car world is often about one-up-manship, so in those situations I say this:
Human: what’s the most expensive thing you’ve driven, Keri?
Me: You go first
Human: Bentley Continental GT, $276,000
Me: Warship, $millions
I say it with a smirk, because it’s a stretch for sure, but, technically I win.

Here’s the blog post with more about the trip, and here’s the post about how I got myself home from Sarnia (hitchhiked on a plane).
There’s a big backstory to this episode you don’t know (because I never told you), but one day I will; it’s pretty good.
