    Yes, but that is just one of the criteria.

    Concurrent ownership of 5 F's alone doesn't qualify the owner yet though. If the 5 comprised of a high mileage 308, 328, 348, 355, and 360 all bought used, it wouldn't even put the owner on the radar of the authorized dealer.

    You mean these cars being driven in China, or the guy passing on his sure win allocation? Or both?

    Hmm I think this is a standard Aventador. But not sure why there's a '50' badge in the interior.

    The 50th Anniversary model has a different front bumper and almost fully redesigned rear end.

    Not necessarily only flagship models (meaning V12's), but rather current models bought new or used from the authorised dealer. Nearly there, but still not qualified.

    Haha that should be our friend here. No big deal, it's just another limited edition Ferrari & there's plenty in their history to choose from which I've egged him to start collecting now.

    The entry for invitation used to be an owner of past supercars but since Ital is a relatively new dealer, they'll have to choose from their favourite clients probably to be approved by factory & those Italians have a strange mind.

    Once registered, the car can be driven anywhere in the world the owner chooses except Singapore unless he employs a foreign driver to chauffeur him imported under a Carnet. That's the passport for travelling.

    For the kick of it, owners can also send it to all the F1 racetracks for shakedown sessions :D

    Oh yes, that badge fooled me. Here's the real 50th anniversary model & guess none will make it here, who would've want to pay half a million more on taxes now?

    Sorry, stupid question that I have here, but what's the diff at the front bumper?!?! I opened the ad that was posted and compared it with the pic that Jon posted, couldn't see any difference. Not satisfied, I googled up both the normal ride and the 50th anniversary version, and still no difference. o_O

    Maybe I would be able to tell the diff if I see both the cars on a daily basis....how I wish..... :)

    Lots of diff on the black front & rear bumpers. The front is supposed to be inspired by the Jota Barchetta.

    To be honest, it's just another styling job with a bit of massage on ECU that's all. More to come for sure.

    For the right amount of $$$$$ or €€€€€, Ferrari will do just about anything you want. Except paint your car pink.

    I am wondering why you said, that someone that owns a 10 year old or Coe paid exotic is labelled a loser ? Care to elaborate !
    It's from your post where you bought your new F12.

    "When cars reach 10 years of age, the owner has the option of buying another 5 or 10 year COE (which is merely the right to use a car for that period) at the then prevailing price to keep it on the road. Very few bother, as cars here are quite an important status symbol. Having new wheels is quite important for the image. Nothing says loser louder than a 10 year old car."

    Yes, you have money and a nice car,but please keep your comments to yourself.

    Thanks

    What i find is, its very easy to walk into a dealer and buy the latest and greatest ... its common for "new money" to buy like this ( nothing wrong with new money as fantastic to work hard and make the honest money )
    I have new cars i have old cars ... i buy what i like and whats automotive genius, not the brand new car on the showroom just because it is new. Rather ignorant view if i am honest.

    Reminds me of the absolute best line in Gone in 60 seconds!!!

    I think was posted a few months back, but ill do it again as it runs this topic very well...
