Interesting. When you click on your link and scroll down it is part of 'Sheikh smile' Amaris personal collection and not for sale. When you click on Maserati stock it is £1550000!

That will be because it's not one of the fake Sheikhs at all. Probably belongs to some unsuspecting owner abroad with no idea that Amari is showing it on his website as his own

Well it does say in the desciption of the sold EB110 SS that it has had one owner (amari). I know the previous owner of that car pretty well so thats not true.....

Well that confirms what I was flamed for before then by the Amari Fan Club. I would like to know what Award his "Award Winning Website" won too. The guy is about as honest as Bernard Madoff!

that masser is so much nice than the zonda cinque(not sure on spelling there) also you could have it toyed with to enter in to gt racing, where there still successful in fia gt1 world championship. The zonda can't, enter races like that and would i suspect be slightly slower round a circuit.

I would suggest this and the DBR9 will prove the most cast-iron investments in terms of contemporary racing cars. The MC12 is the most successful GT1 car in terms of the FIA Championship in recent years, although I wouldn't convert it to run in the current GT1 Championship. Quite apart from the fact that all 24 places in the series are already taken and Michael Bartels seems to control Maserati's presence there. Keep it as it is, run it at some test sessions and retain as a useful nest egg.

It's not the GT1 though, is it? Isn't this the 'track special' MC12 BASED on the GT1 for its own single-make series (a la Gallardo Super Trofeo, Trofeo Granturismo and Zonda R)?

Its a Versione Corse, basically the equivalent of the Ferrari FXX and not road legal.

With regards to the negative press regarding AMARI SUPERCARS. I have purchased over £300K worth of cars from Amari in the past eleven years and I have found him to be a gentleman who drives a hard but fair deal and looks after his customers with the upmost care and attention.
Just for the record the EB110 Super Sport was originally owned by Jason Kirby Esq. Then owned by Shiekh Amari himself. I enjoyed a trip to London in the vehicle.
Some people need to engage their brains or gather the truth before spouting a load of self important nonsence on this sight.
I wonder how much real exposure and / or dealings these people have had or are they just throwing stones from their own safe fences.
