"Best Luxury Sports car ever."
"I've owned mine since new - 2001 silver Z8. It is amazing to drive - fun, responsive, tons of power. I still get people asking me to take photos of it! A bit surprisingly, I have spent almost nothing on repairs. I've just done the routine maintenance and it purrs like a kitter, err, lion. This is by far the best car I have ever owned - and I will be leaving it to someone in my will..... i will never part with it. Great car!!!"
