Can someone lend me $50 million?

[Stewie26]

I always liked the GT. Too bad it didn't have more power. Great looking car.

Actually, the models they shipped to the US had a 1.9 liter 4 banger with 102 HP. Not really fast but still a blast to drive. They also had a 1.1 liter version, (68 hp?) that was sold mainly in Europe.

 

[Philonius]

DEAR SIR OR MADAM. YOUR DOING IT WRONG. ALWAYS PLEASE TYPE IN CAPITALS WHEN ASK FOR FIVETY MILLION IS DOLLARS. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU FOR YOUR HELP.

 

[Gaolee]

Do you want that $50 million in rolls of pennies or rolls of dimes? That's how I carry small change like that. Oh, you mean US dollars, not Zimbabwe dollars? Oh. Sorry.

For that price, you could probably make yourself one of those.

My uncle had one of these at his country place that no one knew about.

Did he tell you that place used to be a farm, before the Motor Law?

Sadly, the one in the OP isn't a barchetta

Well...I'm all out of jokes...goodnight!

Yeah but it's still fun to sneak a ride on a freight train. On Sundays.

The used ones I've seen here have 90hp

and a new thread soon to follow......what makes this worth 50mil.....blah blah....
just like the expensive bass thread. how is this car worth so much more than my pos truck? ha
. that is an awesome car in all seriousness. i like expensive stuff, rock on

 

[MJ5150]

There will probably be enough left over from the space elevator kickstarter to let you buy this car.

I sold my Opel GT earlier this year to a wealthy car collector. But damn, now I am thinking I should have asked for more money.

nice, I'd love to have one of these

 

[bmc]

So the car sold for $38 million, setting an auction record for the highest price at an auction. It's not a record for the GTO. One sold privately for $48 million last year.

How crazy insane is that?

 

[neckdive]

Only $38 million? Clearly an indication that the worldwide economy is in the tank.

</sarc>

 

[Eric Perry]

That car is clearly from a better, vanished time.

 

[/\/\3phist0]

Rush should buy it. Geddy could put in onstage where his amp should be

 

[bmc]

The thing that blows me away about this game, is that this one, of the 39 made, sold for $10 million less than one last year. This one above, had an accident at one time.

Not stop for a minute and look at the nonsense of this in terms of one had an accident, was repaired and certified by Ferrari as a Ferrari Classiche, yet, well, you knows had a few dings and well, its's worth $10 million less. What an eff'd up world we live in.

 

[Gaolee]

Well, when you are paying that much for a car, you demand a discount if the ash trays have bubble gum wrappers in them. And, the tires better not be scuffed. Heck, those two flaws are worth about $10K by themselves. And, that bit of grime of the left side exhaust header? Ohhh, you don't even want to know what kind of gold foil wiping rag it takes to clean that up, so knock of another few thousand.

 

[-Asdfgh-]

I'd love one so I could sell it, buy a really nice bass, retire, and play it.

 

[tmdazed]

No way , it has stickers all over it , only worth half the cost (said anal retentive gear collectors everywhere)


I had 2 opel GT's years back , I should have held on to them , bought them in a package deal at an auction for 500 bucks , red one and blue one

 

[Happynoj]

I'd rather have one of these...

It's an auction though. It depends who is interested and how much they have to spend.
