Nice and certainly drawing a crowd. Somebody is going to blow big-bucks by paying over MSRP, but they are unlikely to care!

The car is the guy who owns McKenna, but he is selling it if anyone is interested at 120-150K over MSRP. The pictures are on McKenna's site.

Nice car, but $710K is ridiculous. I suppose if you have some insanely rich people paying $1 million + for an Enzo, this might seem like a deal. I never pay over MSRP for my cars, and would never want to.

That guy should be arrested!!! That is such bull$hit charging more than what Porsche suggested they charge...10-20 grand over is acceptible, since most deliveries of allocations are a year or two down the road, but what this guy is doing is outrageous. Same goes for the Enzo...600-700K over msrp is a war crime!!!!

Arrrggghhhh!

I'll have to disagree. I think what makes the free world great is supply and demand. Market prices are indicated by what people are willing to pay for them. We had a guy on my Rolex forum last year asking $11,000 for his new Daytona and everyone lynched him. They told him he is crazy and no one will ever pay it etc. Sure enough a month later he sold the watch for $11K. If someone is willing to pay X amount, regardless of what it is, it is their right to do so with their money. Now, just because you or I think it is too much for a given item does not mean he is a "criminal" or a bad guy. If it was your car and someone offered you a mil for it you would do it in a second, so why not? If he can find a buyer for his premium, all the best!

Criminal was only a figure of speech. I guess economic supply and demand can suck for cars, particularly when you are on the buying end. When your the seller, great for you. I just think $430,000 is enough for that car...That's all...

I don't disagree with your opinion on the car and it's value one bit. I just believe that a seller of any item has the right to ask for any amount he/she pleases. On the flip side, a buyer has the right to make any offer he/she pleases, be it a high offer or a low-ball offer. I think many who pay such premiums for this car as well as an Enzo do it because they want the exclusivity and that, my friend, costs alot of money!

If you are liquid for a million cash it does not mean you can afford the car. If you can spend the million cash on the car and not care about an extra 100K or 300K one way or the other than it would be like an average income individual paying an extra $50 for a beanie baby for Christmas when they were a hot item. It's all in perspective.

Someone might be paying $300,000 over for a car that won't be here for a while, why not just buy the one at McKenna which is only $190,000 over sticker
Sadly Hani, I just don't have $600,000 stuffed underneath my mattress right now. It will be a few year's before I achieve that level of purchasing power. Bigger new house with 4 car garage is the first priority...

Stryke, I agree with you. Some people find it alright to pay for hype, and some don't. Some are too stupid to research and find out if they can find X product for MSRP. When I bought my MINI, all Southern California dealerships were charging $3,000 over sticker, no exceptions. I took it upon myself to find the car at MSRP and made my purchase from Classic MINI in Ohio, after $900 shipping I came out $2100 ahead of what I would've paid had I bought locally. I find it unfortunate that the dealers don't mind shafting people out of their money, but I can understand them taking advantage of people who either A) don't mind paying for hype or B) are too stupid to know you can find it for cheaper.
