Anybody know how much one of these cost?

The guy standing closest to it in the white shirt was the care taker and claimed he owned one and he was having so much trouble finding a place to park it during the week. I just politely walk away and said uh huh. Well you have a nice evening.

I just have a hard time trying to divert all the attention I get when I drive mine. I mean, I brought the thing thinking I could lead a more "subdued" lifestyle..

Seriously, though, exactly what makes these cars so expensive? A champagne glass? The leather quality? Im sure its worth it, just dont know why...

Each car is made to spec., when you go to the dealer there aren't any cars there usually, you go from "station" to "station" picking out everything from soup to nuts and in 6 months you get your car.

I guess they have a micro-niche "mkt", (the oil robber barons
and a couple others), but for 350Gs one could have a helluva
small stable, a great vacay and put some large aside for a
kid's or grandkid's college bill.

Maybe a new Z06 or PCarTurbo, an X, a couple of Scoots, vacay,
etc.

Everyone has there own bag.

From what I've seen around NYC, they're mostly being used as the new "must have" limo... Jay-Z's is parked outside of World Wide Plaza almost every day... why he bought a 2-tone blue one, I have no idea... ugh.

I heard you get you own tree when you buy one. Yes I said a tree because in case you ever get into an accident or anything happens to the wood they have the tree with the matching grain so the replacement matches perfectly

Hmmm. On the scale of importance i can clearly see what priority this deserves.
