How would you like to work at a place where everyday when you go to work, and go into your office, outside is a beautiful 2005 Aston Martin DB9 Volante, or bloody beauty called the Lamborghini Countach? Would it hurt to see that beauty gone one day, but the next, another love is in its place?

Well, that dream is true. And this place is the place to see the most beautiful cars of the world. And buy them. These are the guys who come to work everyday, and see a nice XJ220 sitting outside their office.

Automotive Heaven

And the best thing about this heaven...you can resurrect your dream. :)

Maybe in a nice, rich city. But Texas dealers have nothing like those. Heck, FT. Lauderdale Motors doesn't even have that many cars.
 
reminds me of a bike trip trough the city in summer...there is one street with almost nothing but used car dealers on both sides of the street for miles and in between them is one in a tiny building that does not stand out at all with some name that sounds just like all the other polish used car dealers names, but cycling past it i saw from the vorner of my eye something that looked like an mercedes clk-gtr race car, so i turned around and my jaw dropped. behind the window there were standing the clk-gtr, ferrari F-50, ferrari 550 Maranello, porsche 959, mercedes slr mclaren and the new phantom stood in the back yard. too sad i don't work there. ;)
 
Yes, that`s my thought too 👍 .... bumping into GT-Rs, NSXs, FCs, FDs and so on at every corner or mountain pass :lol: makes me want to own a car there and spend my holidays at Mt. Horuna (or something like that)

I didn't think you could use these cars on american roads? - i know that bill Gates and one of the other microsoft directors/major shareholders bought a couple of 959's each, but they've always been in storage because they can't use them on the road.
 
That list was cars at that German dealership.

And 959s are legal in America under the "Rare and Unique Sportscars" law, granted they need modification for EPA and such.

Doh!


...why does a german car dealer selling mostly european cars call themselves 'Manhatten Motors'?!?
 
...

Manhatten Motors is a dealership in New York City. The dealership in that link is a different dealership in Germany.

True. But isn't there the possiblity of lowering the 959's value through modifications?

I mean, 10 years from now, someone might want to own the car with everything it had in it from the factory.
