Compared to other CGT stock this is attractively priced. Joking re the pension bit, but would love to have the 'disposable' to buy & bury this for a decade or 3.

A definate investment opportunity and an experience to own as well. Notice they've put Pilot Super Sports on it.

A PHer's car too. Can't go wrong...

It's a nice car (bit low on torque) but the '09 moniker is a bit of a red herring and the likely buyer will probably be worldly wise enough to see through the spin the seller is trying to put on it.
Maybe registered in UK in '09 but so what, won't matter at all for this model. as time goes buy all Euro Carrera GTs will be treated the same (since they are).

Of more interest is the late production number and the condition which looks superb

yeah I read it before I posted.. 600hp & 430nm seems about right....?

Whilst I agree this has excellent investment potential, I wonder what the real gains would be after the not insignificant maintanence costs of owning a car like this ?

Driving pleasure of the highest order

But if you are going to drive it I wouldn't call it an investment.

Indeed, It has 590NM which is more than enough to feel very torquey given its relative light weight.

Not exactly light at 1473kg, torque to weight ratio about the same as a 997.1 turbo .... its the big N/A response and wide curve which makes the CGT so special

15mpg - really?
