Most expensive car with crank windows

Whats the most expensive car you have come across that has crank windows. Here is a pristine showroom new 93 Mustang Cobra R BIN price is $75k on ebay. I had a red 93 Cobra, not the rare R model which only 107 were made, hence the hefty price. Crank windows, no radio, no rear seat. I bought mine in 99 with only 3k miles, thats right 3,000 miles, and sold it in 03 with 9k miles for $18k Too many toys, and no time to play Seriously, I wish I had kept it. But Im not looking back, Im an SVX addict now. One other car that I sold, that wish I still had was my 89 Acura Legend Coupe 5-speed. It only had 50k miles and looked like a new car. Original owners never drove it in winter. Fabulous car, but I had no storage for it. I sold it on ebay to a girl in Texas for $5,300 back in 05. Those cars are impossible to find now in such great condition, everyone I see is beat to a pulp, or someones hooptie

Re: Most expensive car with crank windows

Its funny you mention the 89 Legend, at my old shop in north Tahoe we had one come in for overheating, and the guy just abandoned it, never came back for it or called or anything. We ended up installing a $40 fan switch and sold the car for $2300 after the retitle.... kaching lol. Another woman with a much newer 02 Acura TL came in at 42,000 miles for her FIRST oil change Rich people.......

Re: Most expensive car with crank windows

Over priced and over rated IMO. Though if you want it bad enough, you're willing to pay just about anything for it. How do you rack up 500 miles without taking the plastic off?

I assumed he meant commercially available . . . or whatever other conditions make me right.

Cool Re: Most expensive car with crank windows

Besides the fact that an Enzo is not a production car at 400 total production, and was never commerically available to the general public from the factory (they choose you, not you them) its also not the most expensive. The Maserati MC12 actually cost more. It's also faster around a track, despite the straight up "afrontary" over its sister, the Enzo.
