    Thanks for the welcome B-mak, I used the search, however I thought maybe someone had a tip that was not mentioned, hence Jsimpson did. Season greetings...

    Who Mr C.Enzo - slow down, take a couple of deep breaths! Take a joke, :D = joke. Life's too short to miss a good laugh at ourselves. V's just so pleased to connect the dots, any dots, and had to let the world know :D (hint: joke too).

    It's great to hear the updates with the London Motorcars inventory - they've got some of the best cars in the city.

    BAD V, Bad V - that's got to be at least a day in purgatory :D

    I hate those "serious not" things, so not serious.

    Clax having a C-GT for Christmas would be a wonderful thing. They just sound so amazing. Not sure why a Viper doesn't quite and a C-GT does.

    Going into a Porche for you would be 2 steps down.

    Why are you looking at this car ? You bored already ?

    I don't really think it's a step down at all, the CGT is an awesome supercar. Le Mans technology (based on the GT1 race car), incredible driving dynamics, one of the fastest revving engines ever built, carbon fiber monocoque chassis, etc.

    I was not interested in the car at the MSRP, but now the prices are dropping way down, so I want to pick one up at the right price.

    As I said I've just heard. Clutch and transmission maybe?

    And driving with cold tyres is scary, too.

    Clax, you can say the same thing about an SLR, they are dropping like a stone as well.

    Beased on what you already have driven and own, i think you might be alittle disappointed with the CGT. Its just another mid engine super car thats fading away. In a few years it will be afootnote as the "oh yeah i remember that car"
    Like the Jag xj220 whatever its called.

    If you do get one, enjoy it in good health, dont get me wrong I think Pcars are excellent. Just that one, i think will serve little purpose in the Porche family.

    I love Porsches, have owned a bunch and have one of the trucks. I think the CGT is a stunning car. A business accquaintence has one that I park next to at the office, he has had zero problems. I still like the looks of my F430 better.

    Thanks for the backup Scott :D.

    Funny how your F430 looks so much bigger! I just hope no one uses that door next to the CGT! That would suck lol

    Effective use of the far left pedal will eliminate any clutch and or transmission issues.

    If you look in the Alberta thread I snapped a few pics of the CGT that Kulu brought in from the States. he mention that he was working on 2 more CGT. you may want to contact him if you are interest in buying one.

    Scott, yours and Wek's car look great side by side.

    I love the CGT. IMO, to get a similar car in the Fcar line up, you've got to start looking at Enzos. I think that CGT prices around US$250k are the biggest buy in the exotic world right now.

    The CGT is just in a different class than pretty much any "road going" car around these days.

    Then you have the GT3s tearing it up too.
