It might be a POS, but that car is very exclusive. Only 31 was made and that car is #31.
There would be less than 31 in the world today I'd imagine, making it extremely rare. | | | | | 12-09-2011, 12:32 PM | #5 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Elizabeth City, NC Posts: 3,877 |
This is a factory homologation special built to be raced...I guess that qualifies as a POS...  530hp from a turbo 3L in 1976 is an awesome feat. __________________ ~Dave~

Sounds reasonable for a special edition race car with a documented pedigree... __________________  No more ti. | | | | | 12-09-2011, 05:25 PM | #7 | | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2010 Location: Potomac Falls VA DMV Posts: 1,794 |

I could reasonably see my self buying 3 or 4 super cars with that cash and a nice crib to match my shoes. __________________ | | | | | 12-09-2011, 05:52 PM | #9 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Elizabeth City, NC Posts: 3,877 |
3 or 4 super cars and a house for $500,000? In the US? Wow, let me know where I can find a deal like that.
Assuming a super car is at least $100k that leaves $100k for a house that I'm not sure I'd want to park 4 super cars in front of. __________________ ~Dave~

So a super car or whatever you choose to call a unique car starts at 100K? I think I have the wrong car then, because I thought everyone here had the car of their dreams but I could be wrong again since mine is not worth 100K.
I'll need about 40 or 80 ti's to become super car status.... __________________ | | | | | 12-09-2011, 06:35 PM | #11 | | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 |
Not sure how one defines POS, but that car wouldn't fall into my category of POS  Are classic rare Ferraris that go for millions also POS? __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles

Try ferrari, lambo, high end porsche, or one of the other boutique manufacturers. Even a corvette Z06 or a nissan gtr will give you super car performance for under 100k. The ti is a cool, fun car but I don't think anyone here thinks that it is a super car, lol. __________________ ~Dave~

I understand the value this car may have as a marketable historic item. I also understand that you are allowed to dislike it as well as not even care. My opinion stands that I value things differently and also take this as just an opinion that is just that. __________________ | | | | | 12-09-2011, 07:13 PM | #14 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Elizabeth City, NC Posts: 3,877 |
Why make a negative thread intended to annoy people then? If you didn't want other peoples opinions you shouldn't have started the thread. __________________ ~Dave~

I agree with everything...
All cars are POS
It's worth it to someone, however I don't really care because I'd never spend that kind of money on a car.
It's like a purebred dog...Pricey, useless, and break easily.. __________________ No more ti. | | | | | |
