wow..even better then F40, Mclaren..?

All super rich car maniacs will have in the future exactly these cars in their collection..these will be the new 250 GTOs..the Mclaren is already..the F40 is on its way..and the C-GT will go there too..once people have realised what the 918 is..

The noble doesnt fit there..its maybe a great car..but it could never reach the cult of an F40, Mclaren etc.

Just read it last night, it's a great article especially if you're a CGT fan/owner.
3 cars are joint winners.
Interesting what they said about tyres, effectively the modern Michelin super sports transform the CGT handling, looks like the tyre technology has caught up with the car.

I just went to B&N and bought the latest issue of EVO. It was the August issue! Do you mean to say that the September issue is already out elsewhere?

That is what I was thinking. I don't think I've ever seen the F50 picked over the Pagani or the F40.

Regardless of popular opinion the f50 is vastly superior to to the f40 .
Maybe not in reputation and history but for pure driving its almost embarrassing.

I keep up almost obsessively with McLaren F1 news buzz, and everytime one changes hands, the price keeps going up. McLaren themselves arranged a sale earlier this year for an alleged $6M, then just last month Kidston sold a one owner road car for possibly as much as $8M. The rumor mill is buzzing that one in the US is about to change hands in that price neighborhood too.
I don't think the C-GT will ever reach those prices due to sheer numbers, but I don't think $1M or more in the future isn't out of line.

Amazing what the prices on the F1s are currently at. I remember seeing one sell at Monterey a two or three years ago for around 3 million. They will surpass the 20 million mark in 10 to 15 years.
