There's a black one that parks around my neighborhood and I've seen about 3 in the past month.

Sonnen BMW sold their first one for $300k. OUCH... a few months back Carlos Santana bought a Silver/Black one from Sonnen too... haven't seen that one yet (unless it was him near Crissy Fields that one night).

Nice car but I'd get a 360 Modena first.

I had lots of clients east of Los Angeles - Pasadena. There were about 1 or 2 Z8s I would see per week there. This just happened to be the place of some testing also. There was one with red leather interior that was awesome. They sounded great! An excellent ride.

I've seen a Z8 once, I live in Central Jersey.. I'm at a light, and I see this NICE red one. I could tell he was gonna FLY once it turned green, so it was a delayed light and he drives by me and all i hear are gears grinding and the thing just starts shuddering, he eventually gets it into gear and the rear wheels break out and he does a spin in the middle of the road, and hits the ****ing curb. I seriously almost started crying. if you've got that kind of car, LEARN HOW TO DRIVE IT! I went up to him and he told me he's had it only for a couple days and that his son bought it for him, a guy about 40? with his son buyin him a Z8? its a crime...

There is a brand new silver Z8 for sale in the Portland, OR area.

They're asking $170K.

I saw one at the dealership and it has a freakin' plastic rear window. For that much you would think it would come with a glass windshield.

I pray that Honda will come out with a glass kit for the S2K. Plastic is a piece of crap to maintain.

I just saw a silver one in Bloomfiled Hills, MI right near my mom's house. Pretty cool, pretty expensive.
