stanski Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 I could not have a 370 so I got the G37s. But I have always wanted one of these.... Sigh Just spotted it in the carpark 1 Quote
WhackyWill Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 My friend just bought the new convertible one, sound amazing. Quote
stanski Posted April 14, 2014 Author Posted April 14, 2014 I know... The second hand prices are dropping now but thats not the problem is it? The service and running cost... Oh well when there is no petrol I will buy one for 50p and run it on Aldi vodka! ;-) Quote

docwra Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 I have it on good authority that they are actually a bit rubbish - not actually that fast, not very well built, harsh ride but not great handling either They do sound obscene though Quote

I would still have one - loved them ever since I first saw one in Edinburgh - we actually see the same sodding one every time we visit! Oh well got to stop dreaming now and back to real life.... btw did you know there is still a recession on? How many of these and new Range Rover sports do you see on the road? Exactly loads! Quote
Ekona Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 I tracked one of these (well, three actually: One auto, one automated manual, one cab) a couple of years back on a Maser freebie day. Brilliant cars, not massively quick but presence and noise is stunning. 2 Quote
jonny jones Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 Noise only second to a AMG but really nice looking in white They tested one few years back on fifth gear and lost on a drag with half the price M3 ! Quote
Jetpilot Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 One of the best looking and sounding cars on the road imho especially for the money they are going for these days! Shame they are a little off the pace compared to ze german counterparts, but still, much prefer to own one than an R8 for example no matter how much better they perform etc 1 Quote
