There's a similar story about Ronnie Hawkins in Toronto, who went into a 
British import dealer wearing jeans etc, and asked the 
dealer what was the price of the Rolls. The dealer told him, " You can't afford 
that sonny"

Ronnie, so the story goes, came back later that day,  with a shopping bag filed 
with money, dumped it on the dealer's desk and asked 
"Is that enough. sir?" 

Oh, BTW, that ws in the mid '60's and Rolls were about $35, 000, within many 
people's budget :-)
