And it went for 8 mil at auction? WTF? Collector piece for sure but gawd it's ugly.

Color classes with my eyes. Hope some collector hides it. :)

I don't mind it, maybe with a different color........ I think black would look badass.

I agree, its not that great...

The car that truly impress's me... and an instant classic...

The new vette.... Love that car, but I doubt I will ever own one.

My buddy took a photo of this the other day. Almost a spitting image of that Lambo if I do say so myself.

I have never been a Lambo fan. I always associate them with guys who wear gold chains, ripped big pocket jeans with stitching all over and Affliction T-shirts.

I love the Veneno's. These were 4 million new 5 years ago so that's a pretty good return.

Never been a Lambo fan. The lines always look glued/pieced together and don't have any flow or style. I do love their sound though.

I don’t think the Lambo is a good looking car. $8 million for a car you can’t drive. I had a friend who had one, every time he took his trophy wife out of town for dinner, he came out and it wouldn’t start. Maybe as an investment you lock in a vault/garage, but as a driver, they are the shits.....unless you live on a racetrack with a full time pit crew.

My personal favorite in the long distinguished list of high end and vintage cars I'll never own: 1964 Zagato Body Aston Martin...like the lovechild between James Bond's ride, a Jaguar and a Ferrari. I'm more or less a domestic car guy, but occasionally those foreigners make something real nice:cool:

I like it. Before I die, I'm going to buy one more car above my skill level.:)

Since you guys brought up classics. No question the Jalpa is stunningly beautiful and the older I get the more I appreciate it. But if someone said, you can have any classic sports car you want. With out hesitation - The 59-63 Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder. Yes, there's rarer cars (not many though) and there's more expensive cars (though the last one to cross the auction block in 2016 gained 17mil) but I just can't get over the sexy lines of the original Ca. Spyder. I swear I'll own a replica one day. But for a correct replica you're going to pay 100k. So, I'm patient lol.

If by correct replica you mean with a chevy motor - you might get one around a 100.

If you mean a converted 250 GTE (with real Ferrari running gear and v12 motor) you can expect more like 500+.

Last year, two guys in a McLaren drove off a road near OsoyoosBC , flipping the car upside down, and walked away unscathed. Shows good engineering for safety or pure luck.;):) The accident happened not too far where our track Area27 is, so local news media jumped right in to investigate, if the owner was a member:rolleyes:.
They couldn't get that info, so, their hunger to report sensationalism, was thwarted. We as members of the track, were informed at the start, if we cause an accident, or driving dangerously on public roads, we can be banned from the track for an undisclosed time frame.
