[Newton]

Ford Transit .. and 50+ houses up tut north

[PornoDoggy]

For 300K I'd buy me a lot, a hunnert cars and six plaid sports coats.

"Guarantee? We guaranteed it to be an automobile. We didn't guarantee to wet-nurse it...

"Soften 'em up Joe. Jesus, I wisht I had a thousand jalopies."

[Winetalk.com]

I'd donated $250,000 to the
"Society Advocating Tougher Punishments for Parole Violators ...and World Peace"
and blew the rest on Petrus
:)

[Biggy]

Id get a Ferrari or a Lambo.

Whats the point of buying a car for $300k if people dont know it costs $300k, isn't that the purpose of spending all that money on a car in the first place? :unsure:

[PornoDoggy]

A relatively new Dutch maker of super cars :okthumb:

And it doesn't just look nice:

The Spyker C8 Spyder T is equiped with the twin turbo version of the Audi 4.2 liter engine boasting 525 bhp providing a top speed of 320 km per hour (200 mph) and acceleration from 0-100 km (0-60 mph) under 4 seconds.


Those speed cameras on Dutch highways are a bitch though :(

This is where we get back to the "borrowing" of other peoples reg plates :agrin:

I heard this story (urban legend?) about this guy in Holland who bought a new Carrera and on his first day when he took it for its first spin he got pulled over for doing 300km/h on a public road and had his car confiscated....

That would suck :)

Borrowing license plates and then driving full speed over the Nieuwezijds and watch the crackheads jump into the canal would make for good Saturday night entertainment ;-))

[pushpills]

realistically I'd buy a 98 some lambo diablo, or I'd get what la mike has, the coolest saleen ever made. I don't have the cash to buy either though.

[venturi]

$300K to blow on a car? I *might* be able to squeeze an original Shelby AC Cobra out of that, *maybe*. Otherwise, I'd put a downpayment on a McClarren F1 and pray that said "car money" kept coming in to pay the $1Mil mortgage on paying it off. :agrin:

[Lee]

I agree with Peaches.

Buy a house and flip it in a years time for $500k then buy the car LOL

[Inabon]

i would buy the escalade you have pimp it with around 20k worth of amenities and make it offroad ready so i could use it down here and cruise the country on highway and be able just go anywhere. with about 60 i would buy a nice piece of land down here several acres then i would use another 60 to build a nice country house

i bet i am not even at half of the 300k maybe 20 grand over


so then i would buy me a mini like the one you rented looked pretty nice i would pimpp that fucker too with kick ass engine just so i can brag that i have a small fast car and i believe i still have 100k left

i will buy something for the wife ahh hell another escalade twin and still have about 20k left.

then i can run over 3 or 4 spikes with my wife and kids

:)

Investments that can be "flipped" are usually no longer investments but have become speculations.

[Almighty Colin]

I have an aversion to new cars. I don't like the instant depreciation.

Last year's model is fine.

Spyker has been around for years...

In 1898, Jacobus and Hendrik-Jan Spijker, coach builders in Amsterdam, pioneered their first Benz-engined automobile, and won immediate acclaim for the craftsmanship of their body work. The construction of the Golden State Coach in 1898, a gift from the citizens of Amsterdam, to commemorate the forthcoming inauguration of Queen Wilhelmina in 1901, and still in use today, marked the turning point from their coach building activities to car manufacturing. Subsequentally, the brothers registered their business under the name Spyker, written with a Y for easier recognition in foreign markets.

The 1903 60-hp Grand Prix racer was an important historical milestone, featuring the world's first six-cylinder engine as well as well as permanent four-wheel-drive. Other Spyker models followed: with their characteristic circular radiators, they enjoyed particular success in Britain and the Dutch East Indies. A second place in the gruelling 1907 Peking-Paris raid put Spyker firmly on the international map. After a temporary switch to aviation in the period or 1914-1918, during which the company constructed 100 fighter aircraft and 200 aircraft engines, car production resumed in 1919, with terms of character and build quality, supplied to royalty around the globe.

Nulla tenaci invia est via (for the enacious no road is unpassable) was also introduced on the radiator badges of Spyker products. The ultimate Maybach-engined C4 model enjoyed recognition as the Rolls Royce of the Continent, but also proved its sporty character by setting the Brooklands double-twelve speed record in 1922, clocking an average speed of 119 km/h in the hands of S.F. Edge. The last Spyker cars were built in 1925, after which the company ceased trading.


:)

Having a Porsche seized is not uncommon. ;)

Someone got pissed drunk at his friends stripclub and left the keys with the manager.

The Manager said he look after the car , but would it be alright to pick his girlfriend up.

"Not a fucking problem mate" , said the pisshead.

Next morning said friend phoned the pisshead screaming "That fucking guy , what a fucking cunt!! He had no liscense , the fucking cops impopunded the fucking car and locked him up, I mean what a fucking moron , I fired that fucking guy!!"

Impounded for 30 days...

One of the first automobile related phallic symbols...

[TheEnforcer]

Never been all that much interested in cars as I've always looked at cars as nothing more than something that gets me from point a to point b and nothing much else. One is just as good as another to me as long as it does that reliably.

That said, if I had to buy a new car and spend that kinda money I would throw in an extra $65-$75,000 and buy either a Bently or a Rolls Royce http://www.2sportscars.com/expensive-cars.shtml

[boldy]

Dont forget there's a 25% BPM tax included in that 300k .. Cars are figgn expensive over here ...

For example: i wanted to buy a Chrysler 300C (http://www.chrysler.com/300/300c.html) full option its around the 83k euro over here.. and they go for 33k in the USA .. go figure ...

So now i'm stuck with a fucking mitsubishi :headwall:


btw i'm still open for donations to buy that 300c tho ...
