My favorite quote about this car was from Jeremy Clarkson’s reference to what The Stig said, “The Ferrari F12 is the only car that could hold a candle to the Lexus LFA”. Neat, but i’d personally take a yellow C7 Z06

Is there some sort of debug mode that could allow you to play with the front brake ducks so you can open and close them on whim?

“Vents go open. Vents go close. ...OPEN CLOSE OPEN CLOSE OPEN CLOSE OPEN CLOSE.”

Edit: Ducts, not ducks.

Forget the Z06. Those are excellent cars but they are still a dime a dozen. A cool depreciated 81 grand though but this on the other hand is a rare depreciated 350 grand car. I know which one i’d take if given the choice

Your opinion is wrong.

Although I'd probably take the c7 z06 and the few hundred thousand dollars. Not in love with the c7 but when they look and perform so similar it's hard to justify the extra cost.

How much? I’ve recently won the lottery and since you’re in Texas and I’m in Texas, I might as well come buy it.

Where have all the lightweights gone? > EL_ULY

The logical question is this: What did he buy with this as a trade-in?

I agree on the C7, if you drive it around all the time, you’d have to care so much less about the C7, far simpler and cheaper to maintain and fix, if you get a scratch or dent it isn’t the end of the world.

lol that’d be cool to see

EL_ULY > Crest
02/24/2016 at 17:42

It could be worth whatever and be common, i just don’t want to loose at a track day or feel bad scratching some stupid expensive panel or leather trimed nonsense.

A Vanquish I think

DrScientist > EL_ULY

are you guys going to try to sell it there? or hand it off to a wholesale auction?

also... do you know what kind of (theoretical) dollar amount the buyer got for it?

EL_ULY > haveacarortwoorthree2
02/24/2016 at 17:47

Not sure what they gave the dude lol :]

EL_ULY > DrScientist
02/24/2016 at 17:50

Not sure what he got for it. These kind of cars get purchased by a whole seller almost immediately lol.

Last year, we had a dude with a 2014 Gallardo vert with like 1,200 miles and we gave him $180k, waaaay less than what he paid for new i’m sure

C’mon you’re talking to a fellow opponent here. We believe cars are meant to be driven. Lord knows that i’ll drive the shit out of it. I even take my old boxster on harwin and you know how bad the roads are in southwest houston. When i die i’m not taking it with me and lord knows i’m not gonna baby it for the second (read 6th) owner.

EL_ULY > Crest
02/24/2016 at 17:54

Ha i learned to stay away after the tire on my genesis got slashed in half thanks to a nice size pothole. Never again. But with imaginary monies, i’ll just do like Jay Leno and DD a McLaren P1.

EL_ULY > Crest
02/24/2016 at 18:03

Jay is the luckiest dude ever! Fuuuuuuck, hopefully it was just a tire and not a wheel or suspension

Please I will give you my GTO, 928, and both kidneys to own this!!! Talk to your sales dept for me about that!

PushToStart > EL_ULY

It’s not the interior/exterior combo I’d get if I was buying one, but it does look damn good.

EL_ULY > PushToStart
02/24/2016 at 18:07

EL_ULY > PushToStart
02/24/2016 at 18:21

LOL remember those? They took the car to get tires and a state inspection in the Volvo side. I’ll try to do something before the wholesale people get here

So is the old adage that rich people get bored quickly true then? Because if I had this car, I would probably never get rid of it.

our cars very rarely have over 25K on them. Your theory is very true especially with GT cars, primaraly the bazillion used Maserati Gran Turismo and Bentley Continental GT.
