And there's a reason you drive a bullitt witha F1a.........
Lol. No comment.So 1 million gets you a 10.58
I would think for a million dollars it could get into the 9's at least. I know its not a drag car but neither is 765 but that will go deep in the 9's if the 720 already has.
Some of the comments on here are retarded at best lately. A simple google search shows Motor Trend running [email protected]. It makes over 1700lbs of total downforce at 155mph.
I don't know maybe it's me being a simple peasant but I can think of way better cars to purchase with that amount.
Cause you're thinking of buying one car maybe two. Its for Treynor, so you can take your 2M+ track toy to cars and coffee while your real track cars you cant take stay home. Not for our kind.
It's another level, don't over think it.
I want to see who gets a Valkerie, AMG 1, etc.
As Treynor mentioned lack factory support for things like Paganini and Konegzzzgsb.
Who buys a Murray T.50?!

I think the Valkyrie or however it’s spelled may be dead. Sad.
Can’t wait for some real world T.50 reviews.
Even if you had the coin i've always had trouble understanding cars over 250k. If you can afford a 720 you'll get 99.9 percent of that car at 25 percent of the price. I have several friends with million dollar cars and they are always afraid to drive them...might get scratched, might chip the windshield, might get a door ding...etc etc etc. And I totally understand that but it can ruin the experience too. I also like the fact that you can buy several american cars with incredible performance and have no trouble getting parts. Try doing that on a Mac. Thank God people in the aftermarket have figured there computer systems out etc, otherwise getting there cars worked on is nearly impossible. That being said I really love that car. haha
I'd have serious concerns about driving a car that cost as much as my current home, hell even a $100K car would have me cringing anytime I was behind a dump truck or in a parking lot, etc.
That said it all seems to be relative. I doubt Treynor puts more worry into scratching his LaF on a sunday drive than I do worrying about scratching my Stang on the way to work.
Kinda what I was getting at. I believe in taking care of things don't get me wrong. If you have to worry to the point of not enjoying it, can you really afford it? Only an opinion since compared to this level I'm broke, couldn't tell you from experience lol
The responses in here are priceless
It's hard to argue the value of the true hyper cars though.
Buy a LAF for a cool $1.4m, drive it for a few years, unload it for 3x-4x what you paid.
Pretty sure the Aperta was worth over $7m at some point, not sure if values are still there but that's a nice return on something you could enjoy for a thousand miles.
The $250k cars might be some of the more expensive cars you can buy.
I don't know if it's the colour, but the Senna looks a lot better than I remember. I think it's ****ing sick, and don't care how much it costs.
Because it basically bolts directly to the chassis and not the body.
Seriously. People are unimpressed that a car that was built for a racing around corners doesn't perform well at a drag strip...
This is SVTP though...so....that is expected lol.
The 720S is nowhere near a Senna when a Senna is in it's natural habitat.
People who buy the Senna usually have a 720S as well for GT car reasons. The comparison is just not there.
720s will go 9s all day and is a bargain vs. subject car IMO.
But hey.. im just a dumb, illiterate 1/4-type of a guy. I admittedly dont know shit about the turns.

It's not really a bargain compared to it because any car thats built to go fast around corners properly costs an absolute fortune when you are nearing the capabilities of a Senna. Again, there just is no comparison, proper example of Apples/oranges.
You can take a fox body and build it into a car that'll beat a 720S on the drag strip for cheap
You can not take a fox body and build it to beat a Senna on a road course, period. *disclaimer- with proper drivers at the real limits. Anything can happen with Joe blows behind the wheel
Im sure youre correct, but the amount of people that care about how impressive the Senna is around turns is a number so small that even I can count it. Haha
