I'll tell you what. If F1nut posts up some pictures of his awesome home audio system, that up to this point he has been reluctant to show us, I will think about posting a picture of my old '67 drag car and on top of that will post-up some pics of my new 1,000+ HP supercharged big block Chevy that I have here sitting on an engine stand in my garage that I plan to drop in my pro street project car.

Well played!
Whip it out F1....then show us your system with the LIGHTS ON!Where’s the KABOOM?!?! There’s supposed to be an Earth shattering KABOOM!!! -
I don't know if F1 has any pics available, but there have been numerous knowledgeable folks who have had the privilege of seeing his setup in person and have commented quite favorably.
I haven't because I happen to think that the $30 admission charge is a little excessive and that's without any guarantee of snack and beverages.
$30 and no Cheese Puffs ? I don't think that's right.
So keep that in mind, John, with your Demon. I think $20 is fair. But I get to lick the Demon's tires, though.

Why does this have anything to do with F1nut?
I asked you a question and I asked to see what you were working with. I'm interested but all you've done so far is come up with reasons to not give any details or post pictures of whatever. I don't understand why I'm being punished because of your feuds here.Expert Moron Extraordinaire

Interesting little write up. I am working my way through the comments now.
I like this one:The Tesla will win in a street race, consistently and with all the charm of a vacuum cleaner. The demon is an air breathing acoustically shrieking fire bellied tire spitting beast. The Tesla is transportation.
Reminds me of the difference between soild state and vacuum tube hifi. The former: "all the charm of a vacuum cleaner". The latter "air breathing acoustically shrieking..."
Just as it should be

On completed Ebay auctions the price is $10,000-$20,000 for buying a right to purchase plus MSRP. A long way from $240,000. What I'm I missing?

Heck... I pick on myself more than anything.

the pervasiveness of true stupidity can be mind-numbing.

I know the dealers are marking them up , but how much ? So, you take someone's spot for 20K and then whatever the dealer will charge ? The dealers can't be charging more than another 25K or maybe they are . Crazy stuff.
-
The reason the 71 Hemi Cuda convertible is so pricey , is the fact they made only eleven total. I read where in the first year, they are going to build 3000 Demons and maybe more the next year. Not that exclusive but like I said before , maybe just about as far as the horsepower will go, so that might be worth a lot in the future.
-
How much do you anticipate having to pay in personal property tax on this car yearly? What about insurance? Or if you only drive it on a track can you opt to not have it licensed?

Because of what the car is intended to be, I would think a sunroof will devalue the car compared to one without in the future.
Then again, it's a crap shoot either way. So who knows. If we're all still around when you go to sell I guess we'll see

If you're looking for rarity, a sunroof is a good choice. I bet less than 100 will have one.

I finally got a ride in my friends new Hellcat last night. All I can say is, Holy Crap! He was driving from a 40mph float and nailed it, and then tires broke loose. I'm not a Mopar guy and never will be but, it sure was a fun ride!

Nah dude, no need to worry about that: he showed it to me already, and it's way too short for that.nooshinjohn wrote: »Found out yesterday my car is likely to be the only one built in my color with the satin black hood and a sunroof. The rarest of the rare usually means valuable later on.

Careful boys, the PC poliice doesn't like this sort of bantering.
How do the Mac police feel about it?

I was curious how you loaded your Demon?
I just got a 2017 Dodge Durango R/T and it's awesome.
I'm also considering a SRT down the road or Hellcat. The Demon is wicked but I thought it was kinda stripped down because it's a race car? Like no rug or passenger seats. You have to pay for them if you want them etc.Dan
