Man, that's a cool car. I still can't figure out who this car's market is with it's, ahem, "attitude" shall we call it at high speeds during Le Mans. Maybe the roadster's aerodynamics have fixed the flying problem.

$2.2 million. What a joke.

For that price, I can have a Carrera GT which is a superior roadster in almost every respect, a Ferrari Enzo just for the hell of it, a GT2 as my staple car, and a Ferrari F40 just cause it looks cool. And the best part is, I wouldn't have to have a car that looks like that CLK ****box which they try to pass off as a sports car.

Tyson, your funny...what kind of pricing on these cars can you get anyways???

CGT=$500,000
Enzo=$1,400,000
F40=???
GT2=$160,000
total exculding F40 is:$2,060,000
That leaves $140,000 to by an F40...Can you get one that cheap???

Don't forget, the Benz is one of only 5 cars made total. Pretty unique, wouldn't you say???

you're $50k high on the CGT, $200k high on the Ezno (maybe even a bit more), and $20k high on the GT2. $140K + $50 + $200 + $20 gets you to $410k which is getting much closer to that F40

actually, a clean well maintained F40 can be had for 300k.

I know of a yellow F40 that can be had for 215k...(Euro version)

Not trying to split hairs here...Just being funny...With tax a CGT will be close to $500,000 if your lucky enough to get it at sticker...Enzo's are going for more than 1.2 these days and last I checked. '04 GT2's are stickered at $190,000 before tax...so in the end, I don't think my accounting is too far off....

After the '98 GT1, the CLK is my favorite. Rarity is an important factor to consider. The Carrera GT is cool but much more of a mass market supercar......if there is such a thing.
