Thumbs up Frustration at Top Models missions

A fictional phone call from atari to the devs-

Atari: "Hello? devs? hi, have ya been working on what we talked about?"

Devs: "YES! weve been working hard and we think weve got a perfect plan to completely pis off and frustrate your customers!"

Atari: " Great! hows it work?"

Devs: " Its called "out of stock".
First we bait them with a luscious car like the Shelby concept where you have to do all these "missions", really stupid ones, like...I donno...chauffer models all over town. *laughs* Like 30 of 'em!
THEN! on the last one we make it so they HAVE to have a certain car...right?....still with me?..it gets better, we tease them along... then when they get to the last mission where they need this certain car, (they cant rent it either), HAHA, and have to buy it, we call it "OUT OF STOCK" HAHAAAAAAAAAAAA, and it stays out of stock BAHAHAAAA, for I donno, til they're so mad about it, they'll yank out the game CD and skip it down the sidewalk, then maybe we'll put it in stock."
See? its only "in stock", when you dont need it, and none would even want this car and buy it when it is.
Heres the kicker, weve found a really really really old forgotten, crappy slow, ugly beast from WWII era to make them HAVE to HAVE!-
Its the Maserati 3500 GT!,
<*drops the phone laughing at the thought of it*>
Are you still there? whataya think?

Atari: " HAHAAA, that sounds great-awesome-that oughta do it! alienate them really good.
Implement this and ship it right away!, what with all the other hype weve failed to deliver on, and missing things, and empty promises of patches and downloads, this should be perfect now! Ready for release! we'll be famous for taking a wonderfully potential great idea and totally flushing it away!
Thanks devs- nice job."
*click*

*This was a fictional account and no animals were harmed in its production*
