$200,000 is way too low. BTW, when I was down in San Diego, CA I saw the Ferrari Enzo! At first I thought it was an NSX, but the holes in the hood, the air dam, and the red says Enzo. The back was traditional. I only got to hear it scream for a second as it turned right and blasted away.

What should I buy, a Saleen S7 or a Ford Focus...I just can't decide. Timex or Rolex? I loved my apartment until I saw that 17,000 square foot mansion.

I smell something a little rotten in denmark ;)

If he doesn't know what the SLR is then he should definately not be allowed to owen it :P . There is no copmarison- I love the SC430 and yes it's a great car but please- not even close. Maybe Bill did win the lotto or is your last name Gates :blink: ???

hahah wait till you see the new chrystler. you should get one of thoes instead next year. solid c/f body, v12 quad turbo, 850hp, 0-60 2.9, 1/4 under 11 sec. for 50k less than the SLK, that or buy both if you won the lotto :D

What's coming out from Chrysler, with a V12?

I know this is pretty much a dead issue at this point, but I'd rather have the 430 over the SLR. Actually, I'd rather have my 300 over the 430, I'd much rather have a 300 with $50,000 dollars in it, than a 430, or and SLR combined. Even if I had millions my garage would be filled with fun converted "normal guy" cars, just the way I am. I've never been much into the exotics or two seater cars. Most expensive car I would own is probably a new M3 or M5. Actually, there is one.. a Ferarri 550.. I've always thought those were pretty groovy.

New Chrysler ME412 ill take 2 please, in the magazine it shows the interior and the whole thing is c/f with chrome accents . very good lookin car.

Wow, this can't be competing with the Stang or the Vette. It's gotta be competing with the ENzo and Ford GT!

I agree with you guys. Ferraris, SLRs, they're like the perfect car, but having a self-made supercar is better.

Rich, I don't know about you, but the SC with mods, makes me feel like I've accomplished something, as a driver/mechanic. Although having one or winning one would make me change that feeling. ;)

... one of the best posts of all time IMHO!!

An M5 would be my choice any day of the week ... this is a fun topic .... :D Car and Driver LOVED the new Ford GT and for $150K it's a "steal" (that's how C&D described it).

Sadistic's comments reminded me of my Jeep ... I can go to the dealer and buy a Rubicon but where's the fun in that. I've installed 4.56 gears, cross drilled rotors, I have a Ford 8.8" rear end with disk brakes waiting to go in, I plan on installing Eaton electric lockers front and back, an Atlas transfer case, an NV4500 transmission, a Rubicon lift kit etc .... the list goes on but that's the point. It's the journey from A to B that makes it all worth while.

Yup, saw Car and Driver TV this morning. I'm a little eagar to see the new Ford GT, and if someone lets me drive it, I'll be all over it.
