I bet you will have those cars for a long time. The market is totally soft. I know of a 512 for probably 50k and a mondial cab for less than 25K. People are dumping 308's for 18K. People are asking big numbers like 35 for a 308 QV but I don't see anyone buying | ||

Let's see how the PPI goes on Monday. It was a blackhorse on Wednesday for the slave repair. It did not sound promising from the visual but we'll see how it goes. It might just be a mute point. So far it needs unoffically, Tires x 4 @ 300 each emmissions reinstalled $ 2000 (includes parts) brakes clutch They are not doing the PPI but that is just what they noticed on the outside. Lamborghini in BH is doing it. | ||

Matt here is my thought. The Jalpa and the boxer are both extremely rare cars-more rare then the 308. And they both have a Better potential of increasing in value. The 308 is a beautiful car- and you have gotten a chance to really enjoy the vehicle. Give a chance to the other two vehicles. Enjoy the boxer and the jalpa for some time.- worse case scenario you miss the 308 and can find one pretty easily in the future. | ||

The one thing I'm still trying to figure out is who is Andrea and why does Marty want you to get rid of a car when he drives the 360? *puzzled*  Sunny | ||

Do what the other guy in Arizona did when he had to sell his 348ts... Sell the boxer for $90k Sell the Carb 308 for $50k Then tell her you REALLY tried and that the market is way too soft. | ||

Matt, tell your wife you've tried selling but the market is sooo weak that the offers you were getting were absurd... you have to wait until the market picks up again - ie. delay the inevitable | ||

There are no bad choices here, only hard choices. Each car is unique, exotic and amazing. You have opportunities that most people only dream of regardless of which you keep (right DES?). Based on my wife's reaction, I can understand your's. Don't mourn your loss, be happy for the thrill that owning one of these cars is going to give someone else. Now if you were left with none of them, I would say go ahead and mourn. | ||

I have a friend with a Testarossa that's not being driven... I will have to check on the make year and condition. I'm sure the miles are low - it may be a bit of a "garage queen" but I know there are a lot of ppl here interested in one, so I'll check with him. | ||

Anytime Jordan. Even if he does not want to get it. You, your mom and dad can drive it. Remember, I offered to let you drive it on Ortega. | ||
