    Looks like it! :eek::eek:

    Imagine the cost of buying that, then add stamp duty and insurance and servicing costs for 12 months! :D:D

    Actually, would anyone insure it? ;);)

    Awesome car!! One of my favs! :):)

    there's something special about owning 1, of say 35 in the world.
    As opposed to 1 of 10000 in the world.

    If they took say $400k of the price 3 years ago and invested it in term deposits, they'd have more than $2.2m now :rolleyes:

    Simple economics...

    You're correct. It's like the LM, you can't drive to the milk bar, but you can do track days (not Ferrari ones because we don't have any), you get invited to P.I historics and get to go around the track. You get invited to the Grand Prix (and get to drive around the track) etc. etc. I reckon that's better than being a wanker in Lygon St.
    And let's face it. Where are you going to be able to do EVEN 200k on public roads these days, with cops and camera's etc. etc. AND that whole scenario with cops and camera's is only going to get worse. (heard on the radio they're talking about booking people for 1k over the limit now.) So take your Zonda whatever and sit on 100k's.
    It's bad enough with the F40. Took it out for a run on sunday and even with my electronic cop device, I still found myself looking all over the place for cops as soon as I went 10K's over. Got to 200k's down eastlink, but only in one section. And I don't care who reads this.

    You're right mate, speed limit is only 100 km/h. :D:D

    As mentioned, would rather a fleet of Ferraris for the money. :D:D

    But if we had a choice to drive on the road, give me the FXX everytime! :D:D
