Foreign cars are nice but American Muscle all the way. Love the 2003 Cobra, they sound amazing!!!

Well if we are claiming American Muscle cars then I'll go with 1971 Hemi Cuda.

Well now there is a broker involved. :( My friend said it was recommended that he have one to get the best deal. Which makes no sense to me because he's paying him 3.5% of sale. It was the dealership in Houston that convinced him. Really stupid but it's not my money. He went to two "private showings" and I was not invited. Oh well maybe I'll get to drive whatever he decides on.

Viper to an Aventador seems like a huge range in pricing. If he's got Aventador money, I'd tell you/him to also check out the McLaren MP4-12C. On paper the Aventador is probably best, but the McLaren is a little more understated, which he may like.

Agreed! A 458 would be sweet tho. Me, I'd get something sensible like a M5.

The new Jaguar F type looks pretty sweet tho.

Fingers crossed for the 458! We need more on the road.

If it's not too late, tell your friend to wait for the 2013 Ferrari F12berlinetta. Man, talk about sex on wheels!

No fans of Godzilla? The Nissan GTR. May not have to super car brand name, but every bit as impressive. Only 8 techs in the world(all in Japan) that build those motors. Each one builds a motor themselves one at a time, and when they are finished they sign it. The motor is their work of art.

I agree with this guy. I would definitely go GTR over anything. Not saying i would change my mind after riding in a lambo or something, but take a ride in a modded 700+ horsepower beast GTR and see if it isnt a life changing experience.

Yes this counts! My uncle is a pilot and us to be a helicopter delivery man. Delivering helicopters to the uber rich. He delivered that very helio to one of the Dubai royal family. Now he flies those same types on a 737.
