I'd rather drop the half mil on southwest airline stocks when they hit $12/share and then sell it after they announce their yearly earnings and the stock doubles. Then buy the S7. It would be like getting it for free Too bad i'm only going to be able to afford like 80 shares

Isn't that loosely based on the C5 or is it the Mosler? Otherwise, I'd rather spend my 500K on the Saleen than the Enzo if I have it.

There's a dark blue twin turbo S7 that parks at my local home depot all the time. Make's you think twice sometimes. Will a 2X4 fit in the rear engine compartment?
