That note is funny...there's a guy with an original 289 Cobra that brings it to our local Thursday night car show every week. He's got a different motor in it right now, but has the original at home in the garage. Has the same kind of note on it! His brother has an original 427...he brought it to the show once...I just stood between the two of them until the puddle of drool became embarrasingly deep...

I put mine on the passenger seat and belt it down. The 911 has room for one in the back seat. I think the Maranello (at least some) had a back seat too.

0-60 in 3.2
193 mph top speed

...and I've got two for sale.

Black on black, and red on gray.

$81k.

You forgot to mention that it also beat a 997 Turbo around the Nurburgring.

I don't care for the looks of the GT-R, but you can't argue with it's performance.

And if it's the car I think it is, that guy drives the sh*t out of it on the track. I think he nearly punted a Ferrari 250LM off the track on corner exit (turn 11) at Monterey a couple of years ago.
