That's what I heard also. How much were they going for in the 80s?

I think the coupe was 400k brand new, here in vegas Andre Agassi bought one back in the day and the trunk carpet caught on fire from the exhaust. he returned it that day

That's too funny.... 400K for a car in the 80s was really expensive.

Just curious, has anyone heard anything about the WX-8? I know there was a prototype made in 07 that boast some pretty large numbers but I haven't heard anything since.

Lota Testa Rosa's went for 300K and the F40's were $750K when Ferrari prices went insane in the 80's, but they were real cars. I believe the Vectors were in priced in the $250K range. But who knows they didn't sell any. I saw the VP of sales drive one up to the Ferrari dealer in SoCal trying to see if they'd take it on consignment. They laughed him off the lot poor guy was desperate.

Took this video the other day. Audio is a bit rough... I'm an old lover of the W8 Twin Turbo
