Nope - asked to define in one word.. overpriced.

Much like the Macca F1 and Veyron - overpriced.

The sum of the parts does not justify the price - as seen by the true nature of prices once the novelty of the "newness" has worn off. :)

At $140K a GT is appropriately priced - at $140K an optioned 911TT is appropriately priced - at $140K an F360 is appropriately priced - at $140K an F430 would be appropriately priced - but the F360 and F430 at $200K+ is over priced ;) (Enzo - overpriced)

Historic F-cars have a definite heritage, nostalgia and mystique (not counting outrageous speculation prices of the 80's) that is appropriatly valued - modern boutique F-cars are overpriced.

Hey - he asked for one word definitions but did not quantify time frame. :)

Modern/contemporary = overpriced
Mid-80's to mid '90s = pinnacle
mid-70's = forgettable
pre-70's = nostalgia

Except for the 4 seater, auto-shift cruisers they have built over the last 30 + years... ;)
