    Would you consider buying another F-car if you were ready to purchase another exotic/ collector/ unique car? I thought about this interesting question today.

    Well, of course not ... but thinking that many F-car owners are also Lambo fans, some have 911's ... I was wondering how many are Ferrari only guys and gals ... but, I guess the question was pointless .... there are some "F-cars only in my garage" fans and some not. Just thinking out loud w. the post.

    I love the look of some Lambo's and perhaps one or two Porsche's, but I doubt I would ever buy one. :):)

    Love the Ferraris A LOT more! :D:D

    Will get another one.....one day. ;);)

    Right now a Mosler MT900 is at the top of my buy list

    Maybe if BBLMs are way down in 2010 I could see buying one

    Of course, this is the the time to add to the stable.

    Lambo's are very much on sale, I find them appealing, would not mind a LP560. cool car.

    I would probably try out a Gallardo, then sell it and ultimately come back to Ferrari.

    Probably not.

    My next "fun" car would probably be a hot-rodded '56 Chevy or a '32 Ford street rod.

    Ferrari doesn't get back on the list until a few cars down the line.

    All the games part is a bit of a turn off. I'd have to see when the time comes.

    Me too. I have owned one Ferrari at a time in the past but now just bought a 1998 550 as a second Ferrari in the garage.
    I currently own a black/tan 2006 F430 F1 and couldn't resist buying my first 12-cylinder one.

    In years past, I owned a red/tan 1988 328 GTS and titanium/black 2001 360 Modena stick-shift coupe.

    The 550 is tdf blue/tan in color and has 17,200 miles on it.
    I bought it on Jan 2nd and plan to pick it up this Saturday.

    I'm thinking 2009 is going to be a great year to buy one, if your finances allow it.
    The prices have come down quite a bit and will probably continue to get even lower this year.

    Here are a couple of pics of the blue 550.

    Yes. Currently no Ferraris in the garage, but I am looking. However, other cars (Viper ACR, Porsche Turbo) are also on the possible list.

    Your question may be how are people on this site thinking about spending their exotic car dollars. I would say that I will purchase something by this summer--50/50 chance that it is a Ferrari.

    Cool. I just wondered if people would like to add another F-car to the one they already might have in the garage or experiment with somethinng different, that's all.
