No issues. Just saying that a car that was $110-120K or so when new, and that has no doubt been well-maintained, and that has relatively low miles, can be had for $40K or so, at the most. To me, that is a relative song.

And they are beasts. Zero-60 mph in 4.1 seconds, with a top speed of 186 mph (with the electronic limiter removed)!

Where do you want to take it? Take your porsche, Mercedes, BMW, Ferrari on the road and it throws a belt in Clovis NM. or Cheyenne Wyoming. You are toast...
Buy a Corvette or CTS V.
If just tooling around in the city buy a 5-6 yr old Aston Martin convertible. Be different. Where I live Mercedes, Porsches and BMW's (And especially Land Rovers) are common as Camry's.

For a mere $100,000 more you can buy a clean Ferrari Lusso 12 cylinder. Automatic with paddle shifts and 680 HP. The ultimate GT machine.

Where? The used Lusso's I've seen start around $220,000 and go up.

Saw and drove in one in Redwood City, California a couple of weeks ago... 2 years old, 19,000 miles perfect condition with custom grey metallic paint. $160K and that was a FAST car.

I wonder how an MB E63 wagon holds up 2016
