Default New car fever!
Yep, I got it. I am even playing with the ideas of selling my Harley or ......... the Vette. Yep, the Vette. If I decide to sell the Vette Ben has first crack at it.

Now, to come up with a price.................


This is something that will not happen tomorrow... but with in the next year or so.

Right now the list goes;
2010 Camaro
2010 Raptor
2012 Boss 302 --maybe a GT
Roush 427R

But first on my list is a Shelby GT500.

If I sell the Vette I know I will regret it. So, the Harley is the first to go...if need be.

I want something fast --AMERICAN--- with a V8 and stops up there with the best. Handling is a must and of course has to look good.

Nothing from over seas will be on the list---maybe BMW.

Boss 302 would probably be my first choice according to your criteria, or even just on that list.

Yea, but the damn dealers are going to mark up the price like they do on the Shelby. So it may not be the way to go.


BTW; How's your C2 fund?

At this time all capital goes towards the new business. But if that goes reasonably to plan I should be in a much better overall position in a year or so.

Boost, because sometimes atmospheric pressure just isn't enough.

About my time table also. Unless I find something that fits my current capital criteria--not having to sell the Vette. If I go $45,000 to $55,000 then the Vette will need to be sold.

Wish the new Grand Sport was in that price range. Maybe if I leasted it....

I know a fleet dealer at Villa Ford and I might be able to get around that for you
