    Exige 260 Sport. They made 56 for the US. 

    Ford still sued Mecum. Even when it’s a baseless lawsuit, Mecum would still have to pay lawyers to make it go away, and those costs add up fast, plus its a distraction when they have hundreds of other cars to promote and sell, maybe they figured it wasn’t worth the 10% they stood to make off the car so decided this

    So if you own a GT and want to flip it via auction I guess you are limited to Barrett Jackson, Russo and Steele, Gooding and Co, RM Southbys, or the few I’m forgetting.

    Because 5000 people wanted the car and they were only building 1000 (forget the exact numbers so please don’t get pedantic in the replies), so Ford went out of their way to make sure that the people getting them actually wanted the car and were not just looking to make money flipping them.

    Yes, 2/3 of them. 630 sold in mainland Europe LHD (mostly Germany), 320 sold in England RHD.

    It’s worse than the Supra, these were less than $30k 5 years ago, now they’re over $100k.

    Does it sound as good as the 500 Abarth?

    You answered why they’re not striking, I’m not seeing why they’re blasting Kayne.

    Does the Toyota have a turn signal stalk?  Or is it missing like in the BMW?

    More than I can afford, pal.

    Only if she’s 5'3"

    So now it has a VW engine?

    Check the Cadillac booth.

    BMW reliability, automatic gearbox.  Pass.

    Once upon a time I was shopping for a new RX-8, toward the end of the first model year, the car was already less successful than they thought, so inventory was high, and the next years cars were going to be rolling in soon.

    Seating configuration?

    But Acura does have trouble selling the NSX.  And saying Alfa has trouble selling the 4C would be an understatement.

    “for some reason”

    I think you’re misunderstanding. I said new. It’s an option on their search. Only new cars from new car dealers. I’m not talking about people selling used cars. My point is that there are a ton of new NSXs sitting on dealer lots.
