    Sell the Senna. Build Bentley, Build the Murci, fix the SVJ and finish the F12. Easy. Senna is such a massive waste of money.

      I think they will sell the Senna, Damon is probably just waiting for the 720 to be fixed so they can make a few content of the two cars together.

    • @hazyblue69

I know everyone loves the other cars but there’s just something about the cross between Ferrari and Mikes love for motorsport that really comes through.

    From the real DDE fam and fans, thanks for taking the time to update everyone on the status of the builds. Any real car person knows things happen and they never get built by the deadline. It's a slow process if you want it built right the first time. To all the Senna haters it's an investment just like the CGT. The 720GTR is sick AF but it will never be a Senna and will never come close to the potential return on their investment.

Look at the SVJ they just dropped 60k on a new trans. They typically always make money on every vehicle they sell they talked about it in the past ppl will pay for DDE vehicles.
