The luxury tax only applies to new cars, yachts, and planes, no?

Anyone here looked into Hagerty Canada's insurance products? People seem to have a good experience south of the border but I haven't found any anecdotes regarding Canadian coverage.

can anybody here help me out with Adobe Illustrator. I have a smallish image which pixelates too much when I enlarge it to the size I need. I only need nice clean edges.

Owning a super car is just like owning a yacht. 99% of the time it’s stored and when you do take it out, you’re nervous as all hell. You’re only ever not nervous if you got 5+ super cars and then you’ll probably be like whatever and take it to Richmond tnt
Oh and be prepared to deal with gold diggers approaching you in gas stations. They come out of the wood works in Richmond. I got hit on a few times and right in front of my wife too

I’m not sure they operate in BC yet? I would say they are ok and you need to understand their fine print. What do you want to know?

| That is gold. No pun intended
I had an 07 Corvette years ago, roll up to 711 in Coquitlam, go inside, grab some shit, standing in line, this woman in her 30s gets in line behind me
"iisss thhattt youurrr corvveetteeeee"
Me "Haha yes"
" Oooooooooo my kind of mannnn"
I laugh it off, pay for my shit, go outside
As soon as I'm about to open the door to the car, this 16 year old kid across the parking lot shouts "sweet car man!"
Me "Thank you!"
As I'm about to get in the car, the cougar comes out of 711, kid shouts again "mom did you see the cool car!?!"
Cougar "oooo yyeeeaa honey"
Keep in mind I was 23 at the time 
Sometimes the best moments aren't even driving the car, and that Corvette topped the list for amount of funny interactions I had

Only 18-50 year old men pay me any attention in my cars. Sometimes it’s a bit much lol.
My favourite is always “I had one just like that!”
99% of the time I’m just thinking “no you for sure did not man.”

My MR2 has been getting a lot of kids asking "Hey man is that a Thupra?" wherever I stop lately.
Kids think they're soooooooooo funny with their TikToks.
