So, is there a market for quality "high" mileage Ferrari's on which you can save lots of money buying?

Or do maintenance issues mount exponentially as miles increase?

If I own a car for entertainment purposes, it better entertain me, and it won't do that sitting in a garage.

I think that the deprectiation on the mileage would be of equal (or greater)concern 5K to 6K per year, ouch. Avearage per year is more around the 2K per annum. level.

Just curious:

For a 355 in good condition that was driven, lets say, around 5000 to 6000 miles a year, taken to the track for...oh...3 weekends a year, what could you expect in terms of running costs? Assuming that you drive the car hard at events, but not abusively.

Please include all pads, rotors, fluids, services, etc that would be required to keep the car in "good running order".

TIA
