    hi fastautos great pictures as usual, any chance you are going to crystal cove this weekend? As your pictures are just the best, and there is going to be a vector M12 there and maybe a vector W8 (if patrickshim can convince his friend).
    id love to see your pictures of those two cars, if your going, your pictures really are just fantastic, and im living the Crystal Cove experience indirectly through them as im stuck over here in England.Thanks Alan W

    I saw one at Symbolic La Jolla last year that I was told b the sales mgr sold in the low 1 mill...

    If this did go for 2 mill that is a big jump!

    One or two others have sold at auction (I believe most recently @ Monaco last year) for mid to low 1 mill.....

    SCM # 10169
    Condition Description: The poster car for carbon fiber usage. V12, 2,400 lb. Scrubbed Bridgestone Potenza tires. Excellent fit and finish to well-above normal race car standard. Silver Arrow race car.
    Market Opinion: Your one chance to join the Mercedes-Benz Air Force, as it is now a rare Mercedes race car that is able to escape the corporate parent. Built by AMG before it was bought by Mercedes. Supplied with numerous spares. At $1M, it's a true bargain.



    Here is further data on the resale of these cars....as you can see they have been trading around $1,000,000 not the 2 Mill the salesman quoted

    what street is that dealership on? I remember a while back I was driving and saw a red F50 in the window of a dealership that looked like that, so I went and got a closer look, but it was around 1 am so I didn't get to go in.

    Went to see it today finally. Wow! Everything I expected and more!!! I'm more of a coupe guy, and wasn't to sure what to expect of the roadster. But, it is amazing without the top as well. To know what it would be like to drive it...oh man.
