Wow, nasty looking. Too much for me, as if I could even afford to pay the taxes. Love the blue, though. My buddy has a neighbor in Florida who owns one. He took him for a spin and scared the $hit out of him.

If I could afford one, and then justify owning one (not likely) that would be my color of choice.

On the other hand years ago the CEO of BMW "wrote one off" on the autobahn. I guess explaining to the board and justifying writing off a million dollar plus car is the epitome of salesmanship?

When I was a young lad reading all those auto magazines super cars use to excite me. Those days are long gone. I honestly would not want one for a number of reasons.

So funny how you touch exactly on my views from time to time, Dave. I used to read the super car road tests over and over again. Today I'm more likely to read the add for new tires than I am the super car test.

Nice of you you think of me, Jerry. The CA Jerry found me a blue R8 at the Irvine Cars and Coffee a few weeks ago. I liked it much better. The rear end of that McLaren is hideous. Nice blue, though.

I agree. I never really liked the exotics or supercars. Seems like a waste of money to me. Give me a silly little popular priced sports car over an exotic any day.

Oh come on guys. Admit it. You'd love to have it. So would I. Except I'd have to have money like Bill Gates first.
