if you can afford a $187k automobile, you need the soft suspension to keep your fat wallet from digging into your back side.

Nah, your Amex Black Card and your little black book (now in your BBY) aren't that hard on the backside.

I would counter that the sort of customer who orders a $187k Corvette is also the sort of customer who pays with cash that had been stuffed into his mattress.

187k... and slower than the 160k Brabus Stealth... seems like then need to adjust those numbers a little...

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.
