I'm Going To Take A Serious Look Into This
The Rally Rd App Lets You Invest In Collector Cars As Stocks, An Asset That Outperforms Gold
Rally Rd is an app that lets you get in on this type of investing without having to purchase an entire collector’s car. Each car within the Rally Rd portfolio is divided up into 2,000 shares and investors can purchase shares in every car.
The goal behind Rally Rd is to help investors diversify their portfolios and in this goal, I think they’re certainly achieving. I can’t imagine that there are too many young investors like myself out there who are considering investing heavily in collector’s cars. It’s just not an asset that is on many millennial’s radars. But I certainly dig the idea of being able to buy shares in these cars instead of having to purchase the entire vehicle and be tasked with having to take care of the car myself.

You Gotta Have A Reliable Heart
Glickenhaus SCG004S will have a Nissan GT-R engine
The Nissan engine was chosen for its reliability
In late November, we wrote about the introduction of Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus's new entry-level SCG 004S supercar. It takes a few notes from the McLaren F1 playbook, as the driver seat is central and a passenger seat is placed on both sides.
SCG will instead equip the 004S with a tuned Nissan GT-R VR38DETT V6. This means a bump in power, from the 650-horsepower estimate for the V8 up to 690 hp from the Nissan V6. And that's just for the cheapest version; pay more, and more power will be given. The standard gearbox will be a six-speed manual, with a paddle-shift 'box available. From 2020 on, the plan is to make 250 examples of the 004S per year.
Speaking with Autocar, Jim Glickenhaus said the choice had been made in favor of the Nissan unit as it's deemed "practically bulletproof" as well as being lighter. This will result in the 004S weighing just under 2,600 pounds. A drivable prototype should be ready in summer 2018, and a year later a racing version is to take part in the 2019 Nürburgring 24 Hours endurance race. Glickenhaus also says a road-legal but race-ready car will also compete at the Green Hell, saying, "I will drive the car to the track and we will stick a race engine in it."
