Professional athletes usually don't tool around in "luxury" cars that the average man drives around in. Consider the case of one of the newest Detroit Tigers, Victor Martinez. I've heard about Justin Verlander's Ferrari, but to me Martinez's Rolls Royce Ghost takes it.
The car is retailed at $250,000 before customization. I'd have to work a lifetime to get one tire off of it. It is a nice car, but Martinez won't be in the major leagues forever bagging $12 mill a season. Be smart with that money.
Tigers pitcher Robbie Weinhardt had an interesting take on the car.
"Awesome," said pitcher Robbie Weinhardt, "My signing bonus ($15,000) probably pays for nothing on that car. Maybe the air freshener."
I guess you can buy those kind of items when you get big money deals like the one Martinez signed this past offseason.

I'm not sure whether those tires would handle our potholes up here in the Motor City.
That car won't make it through a Michigan winter, maybe spring too.
