Would love to get in the business of selling historic race cars one day, imagine the commission Talacrest got on that!

Even if they got 0.5% commission on it!

Nice. I prefer them in red though.

Makes me sick!

There is only a recession for the "have nots"

The "haves" will never know what one is.

In red it's the best looking car ever made.

 

[bozothenutter]

read somewhere the dutch owner of this paid about $8 million for it.....
Nice return on investment........

 

[ColinG]

That is a frankly rediculous amount of money to be honest!

I know it's a stunning and extremely special car, but when you consider you can have a top notch F40 for a few hundred thousand and probably enjoy actually driving it.. It kind of puts it into perspective!

 

[Eddie.]

Can't put a price on rarity

 

[Joe#]

That's true.

F40's are actually cheap for what they are really. Give it another 10 years though, and the prices will rise.

I see an F40 last week in red, did look good!

What happened to the Clio?

 

[Jordi17]

My old 182?

 

[Jay.S]

Yeah.

 

[B4RK3R]

If you have 35M to buy one of these im pretty sure you could buy an f40 as a cheap runabout for the mrs

 

[Jordi17]

Yeah.

Traded in for my Polo
