To some, myself included, AC is about keeping a neat and tidy car collection. Like a garage where you polish your cars, admire them, give them love. We also drive them, yes, but it's more about the feeling of being a wealthy qatari prince. I'm afraid only unencrypted cars allow us to feel that way.
We have more cars than we could ever really drive, so no one should care about encrypted models (believe me, I don't), I just wanted to tell you how I feel. I also value your point of view and would definitely agree if the pure pleasure of driving was my main hook.
Be well mate!
