That Texas 6.25% is a killer, allright. The 2 grand on top of the $32K for my 330 was painful, what to speak of paying the % on $400K.

Texas has it easy. 8.9% in Washington. Jon Shirley's assistant tells of going over to the local licensing bureau with a cashier's check for several hundred thousand dollars when Jon's GTO was registered. The staff had never handled a several million dollar car before.

Holy schit. I guess they're super-high in CA and NY as well

As Lusso's have broken through $500,000 and a few are fetching $600,000 they are officially long out of reach for me. So I bought what I call a "baby 250GT SWB" -- an OSCA 1600 GT Zagato. At 1700 pounds (thanks to the Zagato aluminum "double bubble" coachwork) and the 145hp engine -- compliments of the Maserati brothers, it offers a nice tidy package with FIA papers.

Oh well, the Lusso will have to remain a screen saver :)
