I would buya classic GT 500 anyday over any of those cars. Not only do you get a much more amazing car but the value of the car increases instead of decreases. I have been told that on some classic cars that the value increases faster on them than you can make in other investments such as the stock market. But like yall said. That is only dreaming. I am years and hundreds of thousands away from ever buying my dream car.

I have to disagree with you on this one. The Veyron, GT, etc, would own the GT500 (making them more amazing) and the value on these don't decrease the way they do on some Ford Taurus. The production is highly limited so the value goes up after about 10 years tops. Before I get my Bugattis & Bentleys though...the '64 Continental and '67 Camaro are coming.

so wait, the GT500 is equivilant to a taurus? sorry the value of the GT500 has already started it's "maturing" process (a little finance lingo there for ya ) so it has a nice sized chunk already built up and the veyron will drop in huge numbers before it starts to "mature" itself. sorry cuz, for a million dollars i could have a FLEET of foxes that would roast the veyron any day of the week. besides i bet damn near all of them (minus the ones bought by COLLECTORS) will end up wrapped up around a tree or pole or thru a brick wall. blood stains DRASTICALLY lower the market value of a car.

No of course I wasn't comparing the GT500 to the Taurus at all...I was just trying to show that these exotics don't decrease in value the traditional way that common cars do. I can see your point with the Veyron but a Ford GT can be had for not too much more than a GT500, is more fun to drive (IMO), and in the end I would be willing to bet that it would be a bigger investment than the GT500. GT500's are pretty close to their peak right now because of all the hype. Also, if one of these cars is gonna get the blood stains on it I think it's gonna be from the guy with no air bags or a modern suspension/brakes. Just my $0.02 though

Im with eholzer07 on this one. These foriegn cars do nothing for me at all. For the money you would spend on them, you could buy a whole fleet of great american cars. Call me strange but I like the rough, unsofisticated, brute power of an old classic. Sure they don't handle as good or stop as good or accelerate as good as a Ferrari Enzo or something, but there's just something about an old pushrod V8 that has so much torque that it will two blackmarks for 100 feet that makes me love them so much more.
