I saw one of these parked up outside the office a couple weeks back, only now got round to investigating it. Was a very rare spot considering it is limited to 250.

£140k. yikes. was very nice looking though.

On the subject of Porsche, has anyone seen a carrera GT? I see Veyrons, Enzos, SLR's etc quite regularly near work but *think* I only ever saw a carrera GT just once from a distance. There are half a dozen on pistonheads for sale so they cant be that rare.. I guess they are just not being used Looking at the prices they are on for they seem to have been an investment. Up to £360k??

I saw Lewis Hamiltons old man driving his through Stevenage a while back, that was before he spun it backwards into a field.

No you can get the Fuchs style alloys from OPCs now. The are not actually made by Fuchs anymore but ironically Fuchs themselves are offering their own versions again.

I've seen a Carrera GT in the ring car park in a group with an SLR and a Continental GT. They sound awesome! Best sounding car I've ever heard.

I then saw it again about 15 minutes later on the inside of the exit of Ex-Muhle after it had been in the barrier...

I'll never forget when I used to work at Acclaim Studios in Manchester the bloke who owned the building we worked in (huge redevelopments of old red brick warehousing down in the canal wharf area) turned up one day in his brand new Carrera GT. This fella was so wealthy he had a whole array of hyper cars.

We had an email to say anyone who wanted to see a £350k car should go out to the car park so pretty much the entire studio wandered out to see this thing.

Fella jumped in it and prodded the loud pedal a few time to let everyone hear the V10 (did sound fantastic) and then waved goodbye, revved it and stalled it

Absolutely priceless moment

I think the Carrera GT is pig ugly, and I really don't have much time for it! There's a guy at the Ring with one who just turns up and lets people look at it, then drives off after an hour or so

The sport classic looks nice, but anyone who buys one must have way too much wedge, or "mug" printed on the their forehead
