I think it's a really good idea, but the price is too high. For the price of a single membership plus initiation fee ($34k), you could afford many of the cars in the garage (Mini, classics, some of the trucks). If he could get the price down to the $10-12k per year range, it could be a national chain. |

Tim; I think you better give Jonathan from Detail Mst. a call. Him and his crew are down there waiting to pit your Cate. |

Yes, someone told me today about Isaac. I wish him the best in this venture ! I honestly think that this is a very risky venture..this model never really worked in the yacht world. I think that pride of ownership is such an important factor in the exotics market and this model is working against this principle...just my 2 cents ;O) Anyone going to Pikes Peak this weekend...great driving event ;O) Markus Playersrun.com |

I don't know if that's for me. One of the biggest things to me is the bond that I have with my car. It goes beyond depreciation or service or anything else. There is just something awesome about going to your garage and looking at your Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc., cleaning it, caring for it, in addition to driving it. Now, if this were a track service, then there would be something more appealing about it but for me, it misses the mark of what I am looking for. |

Tim; how was the track this evening? If and when you speak to Isaac, let him know that I have vehicles for sale. |

Markus, His name is Isaac from Denver I believe. He appears to be a fairly young guy who claims he's been an auto broker for years. Tim |

I'm interested to see if he can really make it work. If he can demonstrate that he'll been in business in the longer term, I may consider buying in. |

Probably the right way to go with the whole "depreciable, non earning asset" thing working against us all. |

I met this guy last week. Seems like an interesting idea. In looking at his website, the prospective fleet will be pretty impressive. In fact, I know he's already acquired some of the cars listed. http://www.exoticsgarage.com/index.html What do you guys think?
