Anyone know how much that A-holes car costs?

I didn't read the whole thread but the pics looks like a 911 Turbo... runs about $110-120+...

I really wish Texas had a law allowing that car to be forfieted.

I was wondering that myself. I guess if you have to ask, you are poor and not worthy of life.

It comes with benefits other cards don't have, and getting one is by invitation only. You can read the press release for it here: http://home3.americanexpress.com/corp/latestnews/centurion_launch.asp

One of the 'mythical' aspects of the card is that it has no spending limit... which isnt exactly true. Say i had a black amex, and i wanted to buy a Porsche - the dealer would still be directed to call AmEx for approval. And you still have to pay off the balance in full every month.
 
What's the law about crossing state line ? They just radio the next state and get someone else on your @$$ ?

It's not a myth. Amex Charge cards DON'T have limits, but SOME charges have to authorized. If you are a Centurion member I seriously doubt they wouldn't approve the purchase of a Porsche under 150k.

Wow, 160MPH running from cops is pretty damn risky. I wouldn't want to be arrested in Texas, its a crazy place.

He would most likely get the chair 😉
