Default Carrera Gt for sale

In case anyone has an extra $450,000 sitting around there is a YELLOW CARRERA GT for sale in Hickory,NC at PARAMOUNT PORSCHE. The car had to be moved to get my car out of showroom so i was able to listen to this Beast. It is a special order Ferrari Yellow color that is simply amazing.I do not know how anyone can really drive one of these in the real world because it is going to hit everything in site because it sits so low. The car is really more of a work of art, so much carbon fibre.

It's actually a Porsche color. Fayence Yellow is a brighter shade compared to Speed, very close to Ferrari Fly Yellow, but a standard option for the CGT. Stunning car.



Sad they even list the car as an 8-cylinder. Must really be a one-of-a-kind.

You have to know the owner of the dealership. "Had to have" a GT2. Sold it a few months later, at a loss. Not sure, but I'd bet this was his order, brings in some traffic, and it is listed as 'used' with 150 miles on it. Crazy.

He also owns a nice Ferrari dealership up the road. He'll eventually sell the CGT. I'm sure.

Wow - more pics please! Best looking CGT I've seen. Most of the others have been relatively dull colors.

Eric, thanks for color info, and you can see my car in your picture. It really is an amazing color if you like Yellow.

Default Not driven on the road?

I was in Knightsbridge London last week on vacation, and was checking out the miriad of Bentley's that seem to be everywhere on the city streets during rush hour - and along comes a silver Carrera GT in the middle lane with the engine reving... basically, my jaw hit the ground as I would never image seeing a GT on poorly paved road in the middle of rush hour!!!! Didn't have my camera, or I would have tried to capture it!

Cheers!

Yeah i've seen that guy in Knightsbridge too, along with two enzo's and a sliver SLR...My Carrera feels' like an ordinary car when I drive through that area.

i've posted it before, but miami beach ain't fer behind.
nothing like pulling into work one day with an ENZO sitting there.
more bentleys than you can shake a stick at.
i think its LA - with a LOT smaller square footage!

ha! thanks - not necessarily a political statement (but maybe it is...) - but i'd had my previous avatar for YEARS. time for a change - at least in THAT regard!!!

i was sorting thru some of my old pics and and thought this was a good one. i'm lucky enough to work in a business that takes you a lot of places and lets you met many people. this pic was taken on the campaign plane in 2000 - a place where i 'lived' for 15 months. i had to crop mrs. bush for avatar useage, but that's karen hughes looking over my shoulder....
