As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, I’m sure you’ll be aware that multi-million-dollar cars require eye-watering amounts of money just for simple maintenance and servicing, especially if it’s a Bugatti. Over the years, we’ve had many Bugatti owners tell us how insanely expensive it is to own a hypercar. While a 27-year-old recently claimed that his $4 million Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport Carbon goes a mere 62 miles on a full tank of fuel, renowned entrepreneur and influencer Manny Khoshbin has given a detailed account of the ownership cost of his Veyron in the past. He claimed that all fluids have to be changed each year, and that costs a whopping $25,000.

The owner of a $1.7 million Bugatti Veyron was shocked when the official service center quoted him $12,000 to replace a faulty door mirror switch. The clever owner took it to a supercar specialist who swapped it with an identical part from a Volkswagen van, which cost just $1.

Earlier today, a report surfaced following a meeting between Ford and its dealer network, one that reportedly showed off a number of future models via renderings, photos, and mock-ups. This included a variety of potential Ford Mustang variants, including a four-door sedan, an off-road-focused model, an RTR-modified EcoBoost, and a possible Shelby GT500 replacement. However, those dealers were also shown something else that’s rather interesting – a small van based on the Ford Maverick compact pickup.

No further specifics were given, but these schemes typically involve fraudsters tricking employees at a company — often in finance or with access to the executive suite — into initiating a bank transfer of company funds to a bank account controlled by the fraudsters.

General Motors may have retired the Pontiac name more than a decade ago, but it continues to have tremendous brand recall among car enthusiasts worldwide. From the '50s and well into the '90s, Pontiac was behind some of the most iconic cars of the era. Some of the more popular cars from Pontiac's golden era include the Pontiac Firebird, GTO, and the Pontiac 2+2. These vehicles are usually the first ones that come to the minds of the average auto enthusiast when they think of legendary Pontiacs.

Last week, I got the scoop on publicly traded fintech Payoneer acquiring Singaporean startup Skuad for $61 million in cash, with the potential to pay up to $81 million. This was a pretty fast exit for Skuad founder Sundeep Sahi, who launched the company in 2019 with the aim of simplifying international hiring and had raised $19 million in venture funding. Both Payoneer and Skuad are geared toward SMBs that operate internationally, particularly in emerging markets. Notably, rather than build out the tech itself, Payoneer decided to acquire Skuad and integrate its payroll and contract management products into its own offering.
