    Supply & demand. Cars have always been cheaper in the US
    Funny thing is that 5 or 6 years ago when the asking prices for F355's in Australia were only between 100 to $150K it still took ages to sell them - they weren't perceived as a "bargain".

    That looks stunning. I have three boys and can’t take any of them for a ride in my 360 (safely) which does annoy me.

    As much as the car is shamed I really liked it. We ended up selling it along with our 599 as my wife was wanting a 488 spyder or the new portofino. Got stuffed around too long at FMS so my wife ended up getting a 911 turbo instead.

    Drive it around and show them. Salesmen love losing a half a million dollar sale.

    They knew we ended up getting a Porsche as we got bbn bombarded with calls and messages. It was borderline harrassment. On our first visit to FMS we were less then a few minutes in the car after leaving and getting text messages from the salesman wanting a commitment. Then they were trying to sell us floor stick for more than build your own.

    My wife's back up car was always a Porsche 911 turbo as she has always liked them. The best thing is we didn't have to go to the dealership as they came to us. It was great service and no hard selling tactics or pressure.

    Unfortunately May last year we had intruders come into our and helped themselves to our cars which they managed to get 3.

    If I knew about the F8 that was coming I might of would have held out for it but on the downside I would be waiting a long time still

    Still.trying to decide what to get since the theft but in no rush now as nothing really is peaking attention Unless someone has a 430 SCUD that is not ridiculously priced I would buy one

    Dutton had two at the same time that they bought from the same person. John bought one of them.

    It was bloody weird seeing two yellow glass cars in one place.

    Yes, its John's car. He spent a small fortune on restoring / upgrading it after he purchased it from Duttons.

    Stunning car IMO
    Is it hard/expensive to import them from NZ?
