so wait... are you really spending almost half a million on that car? or are you just taking pictures and commenting on the fact of its price?


if you are really dropping over half a mill on that... you my friend are a god! and I must ask if you would have any use for a recent Texas A&M Economics graduate to get a job similar to yours! heheh


very nice ride.... *jealous and drooling and slightly horny* over the car

Not hardly ... I wish, still need to find where that bank account is ..... I will take donations if anyone cares to give ....LOL

But if I had that kinda of money .... well I still think I would go for something like the Aston Martin Riptide or something in that line close to it.

PS the car was SOLD but to who I do not know. Someone in the constuction field that owns a major company that builds large sky rises in NYC Philly etc... is all I could get out of the dealer.

Oh I am in Maryland .... Maryland will not resister the car due to where the exhaust exits ... Car will be a Delaware car, so what I am told.

I think that car is more like $500K to $1mill
The owner of a Time share Co. I worked for had one. He parked in from of my office every day. And he gave the GM a GT3 as a Co. car to use for work. The owners kid had a Lambo Gallardo and the Girl had a red 360 Spyer. Wish I had some .
Oh yea he had a Maybauch too or something like that.

The Carrera GT has a real nice sound when it is going through the gears.

Has anyone listened to the sound clips that Porche has on its site?

Check out the acceleration one : http://www.porsche.com/usa/models/ca...e/?gtabindex=2

Sounds real nice!

I'm not diggin' the Mercedes too much. Sure, its bad-*** but sorta ugly. I'd do the Porsche first.

For that kind of money for cars, I probably would buy several cars instead of one:

Ferrari F430 coupe :around $185,000(for my father)
BMW M5 :around $87,000(for me)
Honda S2000 : around $34,000(for my brother-in-law)
Mercedes-Benz S550 : around $95,000(for my mother)
Lexus IS350 : around $44,000(for my sister)

Total : around $438,000

You'd be lucky to get that car at that price. I've heard of $75-$350,000 premiums on those things.

I'd get an Infiniti FX35, a Ferrari F430, and a Blue RX-8 tuned like a *****. Then I'd invest the rest or something, or maybe buy a house.
