NZ's Most Expensive Car?

I Think So.
I'll have a brand new Cessna 406 instead thanks
Wow!

Definately hard work not killing yourself trying to drive that beast!

Rather have an Audi R8 for $280,000

Isn't there an Enzo in the country? I saw it at continental cars in Newmarket, Auckland a few years back- then it was on display at Big Boys Toys and did a lap at the Pukekohe V8's that same year.

But does it cost $3.8million?

Also yesterday I saw a 1970 Mercedes Limo once owned by Hugh Heffner.
Pretty cool.

sheesh - you could have almost 10 of these Jags for the same price.

The guy that owns briscos stores owns a place over in auckland "mission bay "also owns a good collection of mercs, he's from brunei or something ,,i think that one is his or he owned it once ,
very wealthy man ,yes we have 1 enzo here , but because of the history of the mc laren here in nz this is more of a collector item here to the enzo , thus the price tag

Why would you want ten of those when you can pick up a GT40 replica with your choice of engine or a D-Type Jag replica for 100k to 120k. That would be much more fun.

With that amount of money instead of buying a car that I couldn't even hit the limiter in on our roads here I would be able to buy.

3 - R44's
1 - R22
1 - H269

And still have $2.6million left over to buy what ever I feel like.

Yeh sure you can buy that stuff but then you have to run them, maintain them and insure them. Owning choppers is expensive. If I was going to own an aircraft, it would be a Cessna 185, Auster AOP9 or a PA18 with a 150hp!
