Gordan Murray T.50

[davidI]

Shit. I read the post as Grayson Murray and wondered what that asshole had done now.

This is much better.

Cars aren't that exciting for me any more, as I've mentioned a number of times. For me, the list is just getting short. Too much weight and tech and general nonsense. Too much focus on speed over experience. Too many gimmicks (offroad Lambos?).

Nothing makes me feel like a little kid any more. Just a bunch of cynical youtube influencer BS with their Mclarens and whatever.

But Gordon Murray made a car that makes me feel like a kid again.
@SSO ... you gonna get one?

This thing is without question my #1 dream car. thesmokingtire did a great podcast with GM, with a decent amount focused on this car (they also talked about the F1, the SLR, and some other stuff), but it's simply unreal. The podcast is definitely worth the listen.

Is it simple unobtanium?

Cars that can’t be bought are uninteresting to me

It depends on why they are unobtanium. If it's because of douchebag Ferrari/Porsche dweebs, then sure. But this gets a pass.

I inquired about a T33 Spyder and will buy it given the chance. I’ll also probably put 10km on it each year.

Doesn’t look promising but we’ll see what happens.

Are they limited in terms of production?

[BavarianBeast]

Only 100, and I’m quite literally a nobody so fat chance for me I think.

I recon they’ll be worth $6,000,000+ come 2030.

Sadly that boat sailed back in 2020 and I has left sitting on the dock. Right decision at the time but regret it now.

Thanks my dude. I guess I’m somebody enough to get an application for an order. See how that pans out.

This will either be the best decision of my life financially or one of the worst haha

There is no way the price in the secondary market drops below MSRP on this car.

[BavarianBeast]

Those are my thoughts too, though it’s a bit hard to fathom.

$800k Canadian for deposit. $3,189,000 total.. I’m in the boat that it’ll be a $5m+ car in short time and only go up from there.

It’s just a big gamble at that price tag. But I’ve speculated on car values for the last 20 years only to watch the cars I dreamed of appreciate insanely. So probably worth taking a shot given the chance

You seem to be right more than wrong.

Somehow I was offered an allocation. Having a hard time putting my money where my mouth is now. Extra $560k in gst/lt makes it a very hard pill to swallow.

Go fund me?

[bjstare]

That tax is nuts.

But you should definitely buy that car.
