"As prices are holding steady, but not skyrocketing, it is becoming a
buyer's market." suggests duPont REGISTRY(tm) Publisher Tom DuPont,
"This allows the prospective new owner the option to be flexible and
indulge in whatever may be their car of choice. Whether its a
Duesenberg, Ferrari or a Foose 1969 Camaro, all are currently offering
excellent investment opportunities due to diversified tastes."
Cover Car - Ferrari FXX (page 5)
This rare Enzo-based Ferrari road racer was built for the track in a
limited edition of just 29 vehicles. Sold in an untraditional way, each
FXX 780-hp racer was offered to long-standing Ferrari collectors who
could purchase it for $2 million. For that price, buyers received 14
on-track "development" sessions and a car that will turn 0-60 times in a
neck-snapping 2.8 seconds. Today, a Florida dealer is offering one for
sale for $4 million. Not a bad return on investment.
2006 215-hp Sea-Doo GTX Limited Edition (page 6) - It carried adventurer
Tim McKercher across the frigid 134-mile Bering Strait, through 5-foot
whitecaps. Just imagine what it will do on a freshwater lake! With an
intercooled, supercharged engine, a sleek, digital information center,
portable GPS and plenty of storage, it's designed for the freedom lover
in everyone. (Contact a Sea-Doo dealer or visit www.sea-doo.com
