GT2, Lambo Superleggera, Scud

NEVER an Aston. Horrible build quality, and SLOW. They do sound nice though...

Two entirely different cars.

There have been several threads on this forum asking the same question and it all depends on your personality. Some love Ferrari's, the sound, the feel, the experience. Some keep going back to Porsche, the torque, the feel, the drivability. And some.. well they buy the Ferrari and twin turbo it, good luck with your choice!

It seams like everyone is thinking to big. The 996 Turbo market is in the 50's right now. Dont you think a 130k+ Gallardo is quite the jump in price..... especially a TT Gallardo.... or any of the cars listed really haha


I think the question is.... how much are you looking to spend on your next car? Are you looking for more power, or luxury?

Most people here (well, in the old days at least) bought these cars when they were at $120k. So saying that they're worth 50k now is irrelevant. When they go back in the market for buying a car, they're going to either stay in the same range or trade up. We understand that they're depreciating assets - we're not expected to break even and just keep flipping cars. At some point you'd be left with a 1983 Honda Civic.

Next time I'll be in a GT2. LHD of course.
