    Carrera GT. Just picked on up off some guy that found it "simply unlivable."
    SL65 takes the dog to the vet.

    Depends on what you want to do?

    The maybach and the CGT could both be declared winners in different categories.

    Theres no way I'd pay 400k for a Skyline, even if it had wings and could time travel.
    Well...actually...

    I am partial to the S7.

    Well, it does not cost $400K, but over $150K. Big difference I know, but performance wise, I would have to go with that car. just me personally. Can you beat 600hp AWD for $150K though?

    Then buy a good $100+K cruiser like the M6 coming out next year.

    They are but they do not come with 600hp stock. You can buy an R34 now for about $60K, then upgrade to the complete Mines package for the other $90K. It includes complete engine rebuild (~$25K) suspension, ECU, drivetrain upgrades, etc.

    check out www.mineswave.com or www.mines-wave.com (one of the two, cannot remember which)

    A Mini Cooper - one of the new ones, and then use lots of cash to hire a stunning redhead with a chauffeur's uniform (chauffeuse’s? A woman will be wearing it after all ) that matches the car color, you know, double breasted jacket, jodhpurs, boots, the works. I recommend a black car with a green interior and a black/green uniform but please feel free to be creative. I'm sure it can be done for less than $400k. Say $398k.
    Now that will get you there in style - and once arrived you’ll have no parking worries either.
