    Would be a toss up between these two cars, which ever I found first.

    Modern: 288 GTO

    Classic: 275 GTB Long Nose Torque Tube

    F50, and it will go up in value.

    You guys saying Lambo LP640 roadsters will lose your ass in depreciation.

    Here is a question though: What will the long term value of Carrera GT's and Zonda F's be?

    If a Zonda F will hold it's value or even make money then I might take that over the F50.

    Not a lot of realists on this thread. While I am picking real cars for under half a mil most of these folks are dreaming of days gone by. 275 GTB, 288 GTO, Porsche GT1, Cobra, SWB, Zonda . . .


    Then again this is a fantasy thread . . . so sign me up for my real half a million dollar SWB SEFAC race car. thx/GJ

    This one is easy. I'd buy a Challenge Stradale and keep the rest of the money.

    F50 if you can find one as low as $500k, but most likely a nice condition F40 with a few modifications.

    George- see the replica/clone i linked to, for that half million SEFAC SWB, ie, post #54 in this thread. Can't deep link to the car, so you have to scroll down once you get to Baber's site.

    The new SLR roadster due out soon. Suposed to run about 500k MSRP,But I don't think you could buy one for that for quite a while.
