I believe like the Ferraris they are just over priced from the start and the prices will adjust accordingly. Mine is supposed to arrive in April/May but I am not so excited to be honest. Perhaps that will change.
That’s my feeling. They’re just way too expensive new. Same with my 296. I love this thing but $500k? Cmon now.
I have heard prices are bottoming out around $450,000 from some reputable general managers, but I take that with some salt.
That sounds right, but the majority of the XX’s have yet to arrive correct? Plus, the replacement SF90 is around the corner too.
It is a strange position to be in. I am looking to purchase a second-hand car, and I know there will never be a "perfect" time to jump in.
The perfect time is almost always now. I always advise, if you can, you should. The experience is worth more than the money, and you can always make more money, but you can never make more time.
Balloon white with complete interior and exterior matte carbon and bronze wheels. It is a nice spec but I am not sure that I will use it much at all. I dont even drive the cars I currently own. I drive my 392 more than anything.
Never ever giggled and smiled so much in any car before. And certainly not for less than $100,000. Everybody should have one.
That's been true since the first Ferrari, then maintenance then mileage etc. 296 above 500k is insane - Roma above 400 also insane and SF90 700k insane and on and on. If we were sane / normal we wouldn't own these cars - we all can agree we are insane. No one feels bad for a guy driving Ferrari's losing money - imagine a guy coming up to us and says "beautiful car" - we respond - l lost 200k in two years - and the guys thinks ... I didn't make 200k in 4 years. Reality - we have nothing to complain about and these threads prove it. 296 - if someone asked me to trade for Pista or any car at the same price - no way.. These hybrids - truly thought would never own - are race cars on the street.
This is why the cars are so expensive because people will just pay whatever. At some point its just price gouging. Or instead of paying $500k for a 296 you start looking at what you can get from other brands...
Right. So the market is not in love with the sf90 (anymore). How many sf90? 3000? And 3x as many for sale. Next year we will see new sf90, so it will be even more brutal if they keep the v8 hybrid.. It's fascinating to watch as someone without a $ stake.
Especially being a V12 N/A compared to a V8 Turbohybrid. The market has never really been great for the SF90. By mid-2022, there were already cars gathering dust in showrooms, depending on the market. AFAIK, they won't be able to change the strategy for the "Modificata", as it is a ready project, just recycling what already exists in the SF90. I think it will be more of the same, perhaps with a more interesting design. Ferrari only has a chance to change things with the replacement for this "M", if it develops something interesting all-new quickly. I'm not saying they will do this, but I see it as the only way out of this saturation of turbohybrids in the market, with prices falling, with no second/third-hand buyers. IMO, Ferrari should develop an N/A to use in hybrids. Turbohybrids, besides being complex, are neither exciting nor interesting for a large part of the public, and are not doing well in the market (the real market, not sales to gain score). Good acceptance in the secondary market is vital for the success of a model in the medium to long term.
