Well it should be fairly dep free. It sounds amazing so topless is even better than hardtop. Much better than an F430 lambo gallardo etc due to rarity and looks.

I would.

Judging by the markup on standard the 8C's, I'd say you can't lose...plus you have a 360, every Tom, Dick and Harry's got one of those. Sell it. Imagine turning up to *any* event in an 8C? Not only is the best looking and sounding car of the decade, but you'll probably never see another on the road (unlike the riff-raff in Ferrari's and Lambo's)

Oh yeah, and it looks like this:

Sound investment.

I know of one 8C who has been offered £235,000 for his car.

Thanks for all the reply's guys.

Just worried that it might have lost its value if i wish to sell
If you're not sure, how about giving up your slot for a PH Group Buy? I'll put in a couple of grand for visiting rights!

I wouldn't do it if your intention is to flip, i doubt in todays climate there will be many takers.

However i wouldn't hesitate to complete, with all the press this car has got over the last 5 years, it certainly has the credentials to be a future classic.

You'll just have to wait 20-30 years to find out smile

When all this "recession" stuff is over, the dust settled, Robert Peston hopefully long retired/sacked and an 8C parked in a museum, do you:
a) Want to turn to the grandson and say "I had the opportunity to buy one of those, once..." or
b) Walk out of the museum later in the day, open the door to aforementioned grandson, hope in yourself...and drive off in your 8C
...?

C'est simple!
