    Considering Lambo sold 1000 Aventadors already in a year, people with money are not hurting as much as one could think. I know it's 30% of the price of the Enzo but it's also a depreciating asset whereas an Enzo isnt.

    At 1.7 USD you in? You qualify.

    They won't sell me one no way, no how so I won't be.

    I also have enough cars for the time I can alot to them so that's a part of it.

    IMHO unless the price is a bit less they won't be hotcakes but we shall see.

    If we get one, yes we are.

    I had heard 1.3m Euros with French Taxes (19.6%), so that would put the price before taxes at around 1.2M USD.

    But i still have no idea what the car looks like (eventhough my friend described it too me...) and how many will be built..
    I guess the car will have to be as mindblowing as the Enzo was when it came out.

    Ferrari wont sell you one at all? It's not cool at all IMO. Even if you did it your way, you still bring a lot of positive exposure to Ferrari.

    Forget the F70 Jim, the Pagani Huayra is where it's at! I think Pagani has gained the passion that Ferrari has lost. Zonda R maybe? No doubt he'll make whatever you want.

    I still think you would be happy with a 250 LM!

    Well lets see how it looks like first, i am really looking forward to see something mind blowing, which i haven't seen from Ferrari since the Enzo. The qualifications are a bit absurd, and at the end of the day if i had a million to spend it would go to a Zonda or Huayra, those are truly million dollar cars

    That's been Ferrari's idea all along since Luca took over. You aren't going to see wild over the stop mind blowing styling from Ferrari but once every 8-10 years.

    If the Enzo is now selling for 1.4 million what makes any of you doubt this car with the latest tech, 920 HP 225 plus MPH won't sell for the equal amount?

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder (personally I find the Huayra comically ugly) but the 458 and the 599 GTO are mind blowing in their own right. The F12 seems to have Huyara performance and the new Enzo follows.

    Sounds logical, but the used Ferrari Supercar market is quite different from the new car market and is understandably much more fluid. The Enzo is considered a classic already and classic car demand-and-supply rules apply.

    My dealer hasn't called me in 18 months. I'm sure I won't be getting one. It's a little game they play. I bought a building where an amazing (and independent) Ferrari mechanic does Major Services and the Dealer had a panic attack. No More Cars For Me.

    Heard the same thing as well. That was the whole exercise of the XX, for the clients to give input to the development of the next generation super car.

    Why they would not sell you one is pathetic on their part, as I said to Chad, Ferrari's loss.

    It's not Ferrari S.p.A. - it's FNA, who relies on dealer smoke and mirrors for allocations. I'm totally over it, even though I am more of an ambassador of the Ferrari brand than my "dealer." In fact, I have had to tell my dealer (Midwestern Auto Group) about options available on new Ferraris when ordering them because their sales reps were not aware nor familiar with how to order the options I wanted. I didn't mind because it was my car, my order and my allocation. Ferrari is an "icing on the cake" line item on the balance sheet for some dealers. I get it.

    The FXX project worked well. Not only was it a huge cash cow for Ferrari, Ferrari took technology (the engine amongst other things) and the lessons learned and put them directly into the road cars. Now there are special features that are going into the new car directly from the 599xx.
