    I asked since where you can see them they seem to have CNC tags on the back. Does California not have temporary tags(I really don't know)? I was kinda hoping you own this store, and plan to hook us up? Thus the designer tags.

    Where is your SRT?

    It puts temp tags on front windshield. I never put pic plate on lol. Sometimes I do. Don’t have an srt but have a challenger scat pack, I think sits below the srt but with same engine

    I know the people at CNC obviously so let me know when you want them to reach out to you. You can say I referred you, it may help in my next purchase to get some discounts lol

    Thanks, but I was mostly kidding. I'm set for cars at the moment having just replaced our two in the past few months. I rarely get that far south when I'm in California with Santa Barbra being about as far south as I get, and I have no reason to go there anymore. We have a few places here like CNC that I buy from. I was looking at some of their inventory which is kind of all over the place. I just don't get someone paying $100K for a 1977 Black and Gold Trans Am. Besides a true Smoky and the Bandit car would have T-Tops. They really were not that great of car: http://www.cncexotics.com/inventory...._makef=pontiac

    Ya some of those really old skool car collectors pay top
    Dollar for old cars like that. I’ve seen old Camaros etc go for that price.

    I know I'd take this over that and be happy with the ~30K in my pocket.

    Some of their prices are kind of crazy though. Compare:
    1995 Ferrari 456 (the dreaded 4 seat Ferrari, which usually has terrible resale) with 34K miles:
    http://www.cncexotics.com/detail-199...-15792622.html
    $140K

    Extremely comparable 1995 456 with 34K:
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/1995-Ferrari...9ZZ6Mh&vxp=mtr
    $62.5K, which is far more in line with usual 456 prices when they pop up for sale. And it's not like the eBay ad raises any red flags on a cursory look.

    If the R8 was a convertible I would be all over it.

    I would take a newer preowned Maserati over the 456. I've seen those here preowned at about 20K miles for $42K. I know you want a stick, but some day very soon you will be out of options.

    Not while there are mechanics around to keep old cars running. New cars are already pretty sucky in the aggregate; almost nothing on the market interests me.
