The more limited the edition is, the harder it is to get an allocation. For the F12 TdF, the unspoken rule was to own a V12 models (owning all of them is a plus). For the LaFerrari, it is even more restricted. They know it makes absolute financial sense as demand far outweight supply so they only reward their biggest clients. BTW the rule for the pista was leaked some time ago. Owning a 488 is not enough. https://drivetribe.com/p/ferrari-488...TtiVJXObpx-k4Q |

Around that same time, when I first heard the news of the Porsche GT3RS 4.0L, I had enough of Porsche "connection" having bought at least 6 cars from the dealer that I was able to line up not one but two 4.0L which are now worth way north of $500k. Since my garage was full of toys as it was, I decided not to actually purchase the 4.0L GT3RS since I had no room to store them. That was the biggest mistake ever. I'm not into cars that much anymore but the craziness is only growing among the car people so I'll watch from the sidelines and hopefully do well with the less active approach of watching the stocks grow (or burst depending on the market conditions). |

And I agree with you, the market has gone mad and it doesn't make much sense. We're never too far away from a correction that would make the price come back to earth. I always wondered why Ferrari doesn't sell them via some auction mechanism (especially for the LaFerrari or F12tdf equivalents) and capture some of that premium for their shareholders. |

Of course both Ferrari and Porsche get their panties in a bunch when some of these clients flip them for a profit. The ink had not even dried on the checks yet and I already saw a LaFerrari in person in Naples FL for $5M asking price.... |

In retrospect, it was the 360 Challenge Stradale that made me realize that cars from Ferrari, Porsche, Lamborghini, McLaren, etc will simply never be this good again. No matter how much horsepower more they give us, they all have lost SOUL.
Out of all the cars that I have owned, the 360 Challenge Stradale will always be the ONE car that stands out the most. It was a car that made my palms sweaty, set my heart racing and put a permanent grin on my face while driving. The intoxicating symphony right behind the driver of the sweetest, naturally aspirated V8 can never be bettered by the modern turbos and electric boost gadgets. That car was the pinnacle of my car ownership. 360 Challenge Stradale Fifth Gear Test. I must have had "petrol" coursing through my veins! https://youtu.be/t2DX3WDrDFk Last edited by PHC1; 03-04-2019 at 02:34 PM. |

Difficult to keep track of the Ferrari 250 GTO market value as they often trade hands in private deals. There was one that recently went for $80 Million.
Watching a $50-80M car hit a wall is painful. Perhaps not so painful to the guy who drives such a car on a track... After all, it is really the chassis with the serial number that matters most and everything else is just a matter of more $$$ to fix. https://youtu.be/p--8DXM123E Last edited by PHC1; 03-04-2019 at 09:57 PM. |
