no surprise here, but SLR prices continue to drop.

I see this SLR on ourSL.com for $289k,
http://www.oursl.com/listing-forms/l...owdet&aid=2713

still too much for those who can get other brand new V-8 exotic cars for less....


At what price would you consider buying an SLR?
a. N/A, I already have one. :-)
b. Current prices look good, I'll buy one!
c. I'll wait till it drops further, maybe into the low $200k.
d. N/A, I would never get such a heavy piece of junk! :-0

You can get them in the low 200's right now and there is even one for 180k on ebay but it has 18000 miles but still a good deal
