Without question, but you're able to impress more people with the car, even if they don't get the joke.  ;)

I'm pretty sure he means the car is much more expensive. A Black Lotus (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Black+Lotus) goes for what, now, 40k? That car is worth twice that.

I was referencing to the car as the more expensive one.

Besides that, you pay like 40k for a black lotus (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=de&card=Black+Lotus) in perfect condition. If you're happy with a played one, you should get it for way less.

Just checked, cheapest played on cardmarked 5k € (unlimited edition). Alpha ones are of course way more expensive.

No, the cult has to stay in the shadows. We don't want to kick off another inquisition (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=de&card=Inquisition).  :-X

Love the license plate though that's a lot of dosh to drop just for the in-joke. 
On a personal note, if I ever somehow won that car, I'd likely sell it for a pair of the real thing.  After all, the card has continued to appreciate in value over the years, the car is worth less as soon as you drive it off the lot.

Ok, that's a good point.

But when the Black Lotus (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=de&card=Black+Lotus) is "played", it will be less worth. Same if you drive the car.
You shouldn't use either of these to get the value.
