Though this is more expensive -- by far -- than $10K they hold their value much better than the replicas. Also, Caterham makes a superior product, with continuous engineering improvements. I owned one of these and always regretted selling it...

IF $10K is your spending limit, I suggest checking out the Qualia 006 -- a 70" state-of-the-art RPTV -- for that crucial viewing of the Speed Channel...
Qualia 006 info HERE...

No longer car shopping...
Try this ...
It is a VERY low mileage '02 Mustang GT convertable which can be mod'd out the ying-yang and you may be able to pick it up for between $10K and $12K. If you wanted to "flip it" right away, you could sell it fo a local guy for $16K or drive it for a year, play with it, mod it and then sell it for more than what you have in it.

I agree. Find a low mileage muscle car to mod.

You just posted that you are selling your car because of another financial opportunity, but now you have a spare $10k for a new toy? I vote for you to keep the E55 and use the $10k for your other financial opportunity.

Hey Mike,

You ever think about an Ariel. Fun little toy.....

There are some older ones running around 20K.

Man, that sounds like a blast to drive.

This is too funny. We are looking at the Qualia right now. Jim just keeps saying I WANT that tv and our friends just keep asking "can't you control that man". It is an AMAZING picture.

LadyWolf -- you will NOT regret getting the Qualia 006. My wife absolutely LOVES this set. "Six Feet Under", "Desperate Housewives", and "House" are just not the same on another set; as a result our "other" TV is rarely used. If I could only get my beloved Formula One in HighDef I could die a happy man...
