Default Supercar Club - anyone a member?

http://www.carcentral.com.au/2008062...ownership.html

http://www.supercarclub.com.au/

Basically for about $30K + 7K joining fee you get 10,000 points or 10,000km to drive pretty much every performance car out there. Cars are grouped into five tiers with Ferraris and Lambos in the top. With a max of 10,000 points you could use the top cars for around 60 days a year... remember a lot of u guys only drive your cars on weekends. Thats a different supercar every week. Go down to the lesser catregories and you get even more days.

New GTR will be in, Lotuses, Murcielago roadster, Audi R8.. Bentleys, AMGs.. U name it they got it.

Now factor this. Say you buy an HSV for 70K.. that will depreciate at least $20K in the first year. Buy one of these luxury cars and you looking at more. If you have the money and you dont drive everyday.. this could actually be a worthwhile deal.

Thoughts?
