A friend of mine wants to buy the new V8, but wants to see one in person first. So we are looking for somewhere to fly to see one, have lunch, and fly home (we are in Little Rock). Does your dealer have one on the floor, and if so what color? Thanks, Russ

Here is the demo at our AM dealer in Johannesburg. Drove it, was not too impressed, would much rather keep my Carrera - it's nice car none the less.

Thanks Mike. He's not a sports car guy - much more of a Mercedes S Class guy. But his 13-year-old son is begging / taunting him to get a sports car, so I think this may be the perfect compromise. But Jo'Berg is a little far for us to fly for lunch . . . I like the yellow though.

no no, it's not my car. it's the dealer's demo vehicle. They are asking $260,000 US dollars for the car. In case you're wondering, we have very heavy car taxes. The 430 was $510,000

I saw a silver one lurking around here, looks nice in person but not very sporty in my opinion

It's a lovely car was going to get one as my daily car but they only offered them in Manual for now and they were overpriced at our dealership; So then I got my self something faster and less exotic!

They must have sold the one they had. Give a call, maybe they will have another one.

Was the car white? If so it might have been the one at NYIAS.

Thanks guys. They're starting to trickle in finally. I think we may fly to Houston this week if they still have their demo. - Russ
