The mood i am in when thinking about ue letting the supermaxx line die is kind of "double sided" (don´t know if one can say that in english... :-)) - on the one side i am angry that robin will let the SM thing die on the other side i am kind of angry because the SM cars i have cannot longer be used the way they were made for.

But as it was sad in this thread... it´s the way things go, like in real world: the old real-world cars i favour will no longer be made and the spare parts for the cars go through the roof in terms of price.

One example for German Engineering:

Porsche 993 turbo replacement engine, factory version, pricing 2006: Euro 59.000 whitout chargers.

The (whole) car was sold for about 100.000 Euro in 98 ( yes, complete, with engine, not just the chassis).

Porsche 996 replacement engine, still in production: about 9000 Euro.



So in a few years you will pay 500 Dollars for an ue center bone or suspension part.

Just kidding

Marc.
