BIG TICKET ITEMS THE NEWEST LABEL ON GOODCARBADCAR.NET

Encompassing posts on GoodCarBadCar.net all the way back to July 11th of 2007 when ultra-luxury websites were reviewed, the new Big Ticket Items section of GCBC groups together the articles directly related to super-expensive cars. Subjects typically include Ferrari, Bentley, Bugatti and their ilk. In this zone, vehicular subjects are very expensive and exclusive; the kinds of cars that form dreams.

Inspiration for this new section comes from the high number of Big Ticket Items being introduced in recent weeks. McLaren’s MP4-12C and the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG are two. Ferrari introduced the 458 Italia in late July and Rolls-Royce debuted their “cheaper” Ghost eight days ago. These cars, most especially, contributed to the need for a restricted area of GoodCarBadCar.net. As of today, 120 articles can be found therein.
