Yahoo/Forbes:

The Hardest Cars To Get

Feel like driving Audi's posh new crossover, the $38,000 Q5? The signature Audi LED taillights and leather-cloaked interior, paired with a fast engine and car-like handling, do much to separate it from the pack of premium small SUVs.

But you'll have to be quick to get one. They've been selling just four days after they hit dealer lots, says Audi spokesman Christian Bokich--and that's not likely to change anytime soon.

Audi is starting to make ridiculously good looking cars. A5 has always been a killer, and the new A4 look is stunning. I love both of their Jeeps, Q7 and Q5. The S and RS series are in a league of their own. Dont even have words for the TTs.

You just know the A3 is about to make a new appearance soon.

a quality car is always in demand. And when cars are made in limited numbers adds to their demand then they are hard to get.

It may be the signs of the times as manufacturers trim product lines and production numbers.

Take a look at who's buying them, it's sure not Joe the plumber.

So the Audi A1 will be a night out at the local steakhouse?

Yesterday evening I drove past an absolutely stunning car: a red Ferrari Enzo, possibly the only one with Dutch license plates and very very hard to get.

The local Chevy dealer down the road is having no difficulty moving the new Camaroes. Two cars that I saw in the show room were in the $40's (one was over $47K). Both sold.

In some places like Dubai you can see them packed next to each-other. Like at Dubai Marine or the Mall of the Emirates. Although those are the people who could afford $10m cars as well. No wonder they bought Veyrons as candies too.

I'm sure 397 of them can be found in Dubai. ;)
No doubt. Although I have a co-worker who's son was in Los Angeles for the summer (boarding and other videos- something called free running???) and he sent pics of ferrari, maserati, Lambo's, and other exotics.

I drove the down the road the other day and noticed that a custom car dealer who's been there for almost 10 years is no longer in business...

And that dealer we bought our Chevy from last year, he's gone too.

Never mind. This just did it for me.

I love Audi styling, had a VW TDI supercharged diesel, and now the two are combined. This should be illegal to even entice me.

If only it were possible to make sweet, sweet love to inanimate objects....

OMG! You would need to own the dealership just to have that thing serviced!

(I'm actually bookmarking that porche thread. A good friend has an earlier model porsche that is mid engine. Now I see what he was talking about having to drop the tranny and engine to service it.)
