That's a lot of euros...

...not to mention they focus on 14 year olds (like they're marketing to parents?). The idea that children should be driving around in vehicles that are the result of millions of man-hours of engineering and thousands of man-hours of labor (adults and likely other children in other countries in the supply chain)... well, that's intensely luxurious. End-of-days luxurious, in my opinion.

It is quite common to spend $5k-$10k on various summer enrichments for a 14 year old.

Just 4 years later, that child will likely go to university that costs on average $30K in the US.

Wow. I'm a very grown adult, and I've never been on a vacation that cost $5k.

I've owned several cars, but the most expensive, shiny, sexy one cost $2.4k.

The idea of being a child having $10k spent on me just for summer fun is mind-blowing.

That feels luxurious to me.

I am under the impression that most parents who send their children to university in the US have to scrimp and save to pay for it. Like it's a really big deal. Sometimes only one child of two can go, because there isn't enough to pay for both. So it's not likely there's a lot of cash readily available for summer fun for each child in the years leading up to it.

>I've owned several cars, but the most expensive, shiny, sexy one cost $2.4k.

It didn't cost $2.4K new, did it?

Now your car likely wasn't a luxury car, and likely cost way more than $6K new.

Round that up to 10k€ and you can get a real car like a Hyundai i10. Meanwhile the Ami is filled with compromises everywhere. Strange windows and doors. Only two seats. Limited max speed.
