This topic is quite popular on another forum I regularly contribute to, so let's see member's cars!
 
My SMG 2, selling in order to acquire a new land rover defender:

The OP seemed to be motivated by a desire to sell both vehicles to fund the purchase of a Land Rover instead of telling us about the cars or experiences.

ohh i see
well i can't sell it on here anyway because I have a traded them and the dealership is solely responsible for their sale now.
The smg 2 - perhaps the best car i've owned. In it's original form it came to me from Germany with a standard SMG gearbox, which I subsequently upgraded (electronics and carbon shifters,) it now shifts in a blistering time, not to mention it's fantastically fun to drive - in 'sports mode' which was developed for track use, disengages traction system and adjusts gear shift ratios and shift/valve timing. 
In terms of track usage i've only driven it in a proper race situation twice. Once in Taupo and once in Pukekohe. Both times it was simply amazing. The M3 is perhaps the best driveable track car in production, and the new e92 is no exception. The wheels I bought on ebay for a very good sum. They are carbon and steel, made in Italy. The Carbon hood and trunk were also aftermarket and I purchased those from an online BMW parts specialist
 
The maserati is a difference vehicle entirely. This car has the same engine configuration as the Enzo, minus 4 cylinders. It's quite simply a rocket. the technology used in the car is second-to-none and it uses a F1 derived gearbox and is subsequently a very quick shifter. I got a lot of enjoyment out of both cars, and I owned the Maser from new. My only digg with both cars is the practicality factor. I am getting into hunting a lot more, and subsequently need something that is built for the rigors of off-roading, rather than highway cruising or track racing.
 
Let's hear your stories and experiences guys!

Things are not always as they are perceived to be. My bad.

BTW: The link for the SMG 2 picture was lost in the OP.
