Crystal Laurite Silver paint with Red Silver Arrow interior, with a sticker price of $512,660.00. Come in and see it Friday (day after Thanksgiving) as it will be shipped out soon. Simply stunning...

Glad you got to come in and see it... You JUST missed out on us taking the top down and moving it into the other showroom. I have some pictures for you guys though. I'll post them as soon as I can

WOW...not really liking to rag top, but I'm sure with the top down it's all worth it

Here are the pictures I promised you guys. This is outside of our Service Center as we took it down there for a final diagnosis before we ship out.

looks nice...but for $512k I think it'd have to look more the just nice for me to consider paying that much for it instead of getting an LP640 roadster or an F430 convertible

Wow, great car....but I wonder what it would sell like at half that price or even 300K. 512K is just too much for this car now. There are too many "cheaper" cars that provide more thrills, say anywhere from 250-350K.

Where is this car going, is it sold?

Oof! $512k? $10,000 just for red leather? Is it off the *** of a rare, South American Crimson cow or something?

I don't get it. It's a nice car but for 1/2 mil I don't get it-but then again I'm not the target customer. I'd spend the $300-$400 k on a Maybach with first class seating in the back and a drive before that.

$20 says it is going to one of the russians living in my neighborhood.

Have we got a deal? I will take my $20 in the form of a Scotch on the rocks.

hehe.

The folks im thinkin of currently have a Bentley GTC, S600, RR Phantom, and a Vanquish S... and other cars I don't know where they are though (parked in the hamptons I think...)

This SLR Roadster would be totally amazing driving down the streets in this area. I would love to snap some pictures for you guys.
