Some people paid a lot; many were only paying 10-20 over MSRP in general. 10k + miles start dropping into the 140's to low 150's depending on color rarity. Cars for 120-130 are generally salvage titles. I know of one 30k+ miles that sold for 190...

I drove a few of them in the past... they are as "easy to drive as a Focus" in the sense that the clutch effort is not difficult, and the steering is bordering on telepathic (unlike the foci). Both belonged to FoMoCo.

Stock, the only thing that will beat it stock for stock are the CGT, and Enzo from that time frame. A pully/ tune / exhaust (PTE) mod will run you $3000 or so; and will bring power from 530ish - 610 or even as much as 640 RWHP I've seen. with 640, you'll be capable of pulling the mid 190's in the standing 1 mile.... and 135-138 in the 1/4; with a few owners capable of high 10's with their extreme talent and "soft" launches.

10g's, and you'd be looking at a whipple SC replacement, and over 700 RWHP with ease. ... up the ante to 20-30g for a TT setup and conservatively run 850 RWHP; while sacrificing low end torque. The rush from 3500-6500 is a hell of an adrenalin rush, and the noise is intoxicating as well.

whatever car you look at, have the GT Guys preform a PPI. If they say it's good, its worth getting even sight unseen.

Shelbyelite.com and BJmotors are regular carriers of high quality FGT's.

I'd shy away from salvage title cars. You'll have a hard time reselling when you are done with it; otherwise, the car will hold it's value; or increase. There are increasing numbers of people with multi- FGT's in their garages; on top of the dwindling numbers of non salvage/ totalled cars out there.

It's not impossible to find a car that already has PTE/ whipple etc. ... such modifications don't detract from the value of the car.

The GT Forum also has every bit of information on any and every nuance that the GT has happened since her inception.

I cannot make people do things. Motivation comes from the intrinsic forces.

Can't be Craigs List, as I haven't ever used it...good guess.

What is CL?

not that it's easy... but maybe the gallery is 300 pixels wide for unregistered, and hi-res for registered?

He drives the Gallardo a lot. The Enzo is more for special occasions. The Aston is still regularly driven... given the number of options he has.

For cars that are really great drivers, he sometimes finds himself driving for no reason whatsoever for long periods of time.

He's the quintessential car guy.

Glad you enjoyed yourself Andrew

I'd be concerned about the 1/2 shafts, and syncro's. Diablo's go through clutches rather quickly regardless.

I'd give Jason Heffner a call, and just talk about his options, and opinions; regardless of if you would do business with him or not. Nobody knows more about making a boosted Lambo work like he does. He'd also know what might need/ not need reinforcing when so much more power is made.

Very nice andrew
