What is the fate of the last car? Is it going to auction, or going to just some lucky guy who had one on order?

It's probably going to an "insider".

Yep, I know. That d is no joke. Winning in the nfl sans a real qb is impressive.

We don't agree on much @Illegal_Demon but I'm with ya on the moonroof. I've already seen someone say they ordered CF wheels with a moonroof asking "how rare is it?" I think that might be the same as people who ordered Sublime with red interior hoping to be rare. You guys know I don't consider cars collector items so maybe I just don't get it.

I saw more than one person on the other forum post about how they're afraid to put any miles on their 170 in fear it wouldn't be worth as much. I replied that's like not having relations with your smoking hot wife to save her for the next guy.

You drag raced yours. I drag raced mine. We're not exactly the collector type.

The CF wheels are 20 K in Canada if I remember correctly
Add 20 percent luxury tax 24K ( FJT )
Then add 13 percent more sales tax
27K for 4 wheels
I m stupid but not that stupid

I have never considered a sun roof for a hot rod
Don t like T bars either

I could do a convertible hot rod if I wore sunscreen on my melon

I've had friends with CF wheels on other cars and they were a huge PITA. Everyone immediately removed them and got aluminum wheels. Can't find anyone to mount/balance them either. I guess if you're gonna put the car in a museum maybe but they're not light enough if racing was the goal.

Go Man Go had a sunroof and I always wished it didn't. I never used it and my helmet bumped the roof at the track.

I had one in my Daytona and rarely used it. When you are short like me and the seat is so far up you don't even see it:LOL:

If I had the funds, I would have gotten the sunroof and the carbon wheels, because I like checking all the boxes. I’m not buying cars for the next guy and I’m not spending $200k on an 8.9sec race car. Rather spend $200k on a 9.3sec street car built for me. And I use my sunroof 8 months out of the year.

We keep our shades open from about October until around May. Hardly ever open the glass.

But we don't own a Demon.

I use mine in the truck, but also agree that in a car that you're racing is silly
