My uncle paid about $90k for his Mercedes but he should have bought this instead.

Sweet car. :)

mmm....Z8, didn't they saw one in half in "The World Is Not Enough"? :( I'm sure it was a mock up, but still...:(

Z8 Alpina has (had) a starting MSRP of around $137,000

Three people in my city have them ... one of them lives just around the corner and down the block

One is black, other is silver, other is red

Z8 is just a modernized version of the 507

Can't compare them, they were designed for two different generations of automobiles

Why can't I? I also think the 250 GTO was prettier than the Enzo, and the 300SL Gullwing was nicer than the SLR!

They quit making it because nobody was buying it. Nobody was buying it because it was overpriced and not "special" enough for what they were asking.

Gallardo's rule, BTW. All Lamborghini's do.
