Allright I decided to stop by the Porsche dealer today during break to visit one of my buddies who works there. He's an avid car nut and auto-x's his S2k often; so we can go hours talking bout stuff. Anyways as soon as I walk in there's a freaking Silver Carrera GT in the showroom; badass!! Then I see a customer ready to buy this baby. At this point, I was in shock; this dude was at most 35 years old. The salesman opens up the door gets in, and guess what??? Starts it!!! OMG am I the luckiest guy in the world. He waits for the car to warm up and proceeds to rev it! Holy shit this thing sounds just like an F1 car. My heart rate jumped twice the normal rate; I was sweating and I started to breath very heavily. I could not believe this; just what are the chances?? My mouth remained open in awe and I was staring at the car for a good 10 mins. Beautiful in every single way! Damn.

yea that's a sweet ride. I think it's my favorite production car right now.

 

No, the guy about to buy it is

 

Only in my dreams...

 

I know I'll get flamed for this but I don't think the Carrera GT is that hot. it's okay. but I'd take a E55 AMG ANY DAY to the Carrera.

 

You're a lunatic.

 

Yep, I ve seen one on HWY 401 near Pickering. Awesome sight!

 

Please go see your shrink as soon as possible...

 

yeah man, its a totally sweet ride, but I wouldnt spooge in my pants over it ... chill .. chill ... settle down now

 

Wow, so you'll take an $80,000 Mercedes sedan over a $400,000 Porsche super-car....

 

Or better yet, how about an E55 AMG, M5, Viper SRT-10, Corvette Z06, and F360 Modena, all brand spanking new, for that price? Or better yet, how about 3 Porsche 911 Turbos instead of that one Carrera GT?

 

 

I hate to say it, but I think I would be totally afraid to drive a 1/2 million dollar car around, but that's me... I'd have no problem driving the piss out of a Porsche 911 GT3 tho'

 

Oh yes...please have your head checked.

 

I have a vid of one at a racetrack. Totally fuckin unreal how that engine sounds.

 

So, did the guy buy it?

 

I had a dream like this once ... in my dream I was asking a dealer to just let me hear the sound of the Porsche revving.

 

I think he did; I overheard him talkin about paying $7500 a month max for it. His two little bratty kids; about 5 and 6 were talkin about how it'll be cool to have this in their mansion. No joke the dude was about 35 years old; that's what I call a balla balla! He did something right! The car befoer taxes was like $483,000.

 

 

really? the exclusiveness, the exoticness, the f1-esque tech, midengine, etc., v10.....plain sex. E55 is sexy in its own right but high reving v10 over supercharged v8 anyday of the week for me

 

It is times like this that I wish I had a camera fone! And for the guy who would prefer an E55; are you on PCP??? There's nothing like a well-engineered naturally aspriated car! The E55 is only good in the straights; whereas a car like this with modern technology is a track car made for the streets with creature comforts! My only gripe; yeah you guessed it, is the astounding price. You gotta pay to play witht the big boys!

 

But an Aerial Atom costing around $30K can beat it on the track.

 

At least you know your priorities...

 

but it's not going to get you laid. The Carrera GT has unrivaled panty removing power.

 

meh..........pussy gets old and it bitches......ariel atom is hours of fun, no back talk, no complaining............

 

unrivaled panty removing power

that basically covers it...

 

I think we saw the same car, I have seen one on 401 around July last year near Warden Ave. I am pretty sure there aren't a lot of Carrera GTs in Canada.

 

It was grey...just like this photo with yellow calipars. The day I saw it was raining.
I recognized it the minute I saw the talilights from like 1000 meters away in heavy traffic..

 

 

Yea, the one I saw was grey too, so it should be the same car...The 15' brake discs are HUGE.

 

My thoughts, if it takes a Carrera GT to get a certain girl, just says enough about the girl.

Ariel Atom 2 is my favorite track car ever. In a dream land, I'll take the $440k, spend 40k on the Ariel, $55k on an M45, $80k on a Cayenne, $180k on an F430, and $85k on an M5.

Of course, my wife can drive her Accord anytime

 

Cough cough...write a song, sell some CD's and you can make this dream happen!....can u sing?

 

ehhh.. overrated. I would take a '90 Taurus SHO over it. in silver.

 

i cant sing, i look like crap, but i sure as hell can dance . Strap a mic onto me, tell me what to do on-stage while lip syncing, and we'll be millionares in a couple months.

 

The Carrera GT looks good in red too...

What confuses me is that the red one is in Leno's spot, but he's been photographed driving a silver one... maybe he owns 2 of 'em

Oh, and he picked up a new Ford GT40 around the same time... must be nice

 

Dude you can't hate on Jay Leno........the man knows cars, and loves talking about them. He's not some rapper that buys it because it's expensive and will look good parked outside of the VIP.......

 

The only thing I hate about Leno is his everyday blue shirt and jeans. With all the money he makes you would think he would be able to buy a different color shirt. I guess all his millions go to his car collection.

 

hmmm... as much as I like the Carrera GT, I couldn't see spending that $$ on it... that or the SLR I like so much...

with that money I could have a few other cars...or one for every day of the week at least

 

found this on that thread:

 

You notice on the red car the there is red light on the left and a white light on the right? What are they for?
