what would you get?

[SANguru]

would you choose a t-rex or Motorrad technik quad as a cool toy. Both pretty cool and around 50K.

i wonder how the t-rex really handles... seems like it should oversteer when pushed but i like to see some real handling tests and data from it...

just say no to the quad... cg way too high and you sit way to upright for a fast moving saddle type seat with no restraints... i've seen plenty of normal offroad quads that throw their riders already...

hmm.. going to ride/drive both. Saw a couple t-rex this weekend at Concorso of all places and was going to run to cartoys to go check one out tomorrow. I agree the motorrad is a pretty high center of gravity... btw sold the R6 and picking up a 06 CBR1000RR repsol edition next week.. that should be fun..

Isn't that the shorter version of the DB9? Looks just as good on the pics. Still, I love the design.
Hey, what about the Vanquish?

Oh btw, concerning your initial post, I'd go for the 3-wheeler.

thanks! DB9 is pretty porky.. the Vanquish is being discontinued but the current model year will still have the Vanquish S with the upgraded motor but then you're talking 250K..

L, Vantage V8 is ~$110K but a few options will be $120. DB9 with the V12 is $170K.

Love the AM and agree the vantage is better bang for buck than Vanquish. I just built a Vantage V8 in Tungsten silver(AM car configurator). Like the way you can personalize the car, down to color of stitching, brake calipers and personalized sill plaques.
