View Full Version : Is a Mercedes SLR Mclaren a good collectors car to buy? JPS0909 10-24-2007, 01:22 PM How long will it take to appreciated in value significantly above original purchase price? Which year and color is most desirable? John Paul 10-24-2007, 01:24 PM First off all automobiles are financial disasters.To much money down no return for years. Only a select few reach Iconic status. And that car will be a good collector. Stock market has better return good stock picks and the price of that car can me multiplied. Can you resist driving a V-10 with over 600 horses? to only 800 miles a year? do you have lots of other Posches BMW's and Daily driving Nissans around? Silver Arrow is the only real color Red Sawx 10-24-2007, 01:26 PM yeah but I think its like half a million dollars to buy poor investment some random person 10-24-2007, 01:27 PM a yellow amg mercedes mclaren is one of the top collecter cars that i know of otherwise get a silver one onehanginglo 10-24-2007, 01:29 PM any thing in that model is good for a long term investment.But can you afford not to have a steady income coming for 25-35 years.In essence,m your money is invested and you will not get a profit UNTIL you sell. I prefer the mid 60's sl class. Ali J 10-24-2007, 01:30 PM A good collectors car to buy?man if u got the money go get it without askin anyone.am not exaggerating or anything,i remember once i was just cruising and a guy with a ferrari was infront of me,no joke man the guy in the ferrari was gazing at the SLR parked on the side like he's never seen a car b4..yeah that's a guy with a ferrari!!!

And property - real estate to you - beats cars as an investment every time. You have the rental income, the appreciation of an ever-rising demand, and a very easy re-sale. You don't rent a supercar out, do you? And they can take an age to find the right buyer to sell to.
