Depreciating status symbols! I wouldn't worry about it.

Make no mistake: the Metro is a transportation appliance and not much more. The main pleasure you'll get from it is laughing all the way to the bank. (Unless you also happen to take pleasure in the bare-bones simplicity of a machine.)

Let us know how the inspection/test drive goes.
