Finally... one that is actually worth the ridiculous price. Some of the others that have been posted in the past have been mediocre at best!

I dont know about ya'll but I like the color. For what the car does I think not only can it get away with it but RUN away with it.

I LOVE that color. It's almost like the Top Secret Gold. It's a beautiful color in pictures, and even more beautiful in person!

Im sure he has a lot more money into it than people realize. Not sure he is going to get 52k for it, unless someone likes all those mods. I would probably have to change the color, that is just too hard to look at. Other than that looks clean.

It sure does have quite a bit of power which I wish I had, but why does the front scream SRT-4? Also would have added some forged wheels to go with the car.

Well, at least the color is not one of those ubiquitous, me-too shades you see in the back of almost every auto brochure.

He can keep his 52k patchwork. I wonder how this car would do on the Barret Jackson circuit What can one purchase with 52k.


1. 493hp E55 AMG with 15k to spare
2. Brand new 07 C6 Corvette with 10k to spare
3. E39 m5 with 20k to spare
4. Dodge Viper Srt10 with 10k to spare
5. Acura NSX with 20k to spare
6. Mercedes cl55amg, clk55amg,S55 AMG with 10-15k to spare
7. Porshe 996 with 10k to spare
8. Brand new 07 Porshe Boxster S with 5-10k to spare


And many more factory hotrods....

Agreed!

And out of those I would take the 996 first, M5 second and the MB third.
