I think this definitely could happen, if the SF90 replacement comes out with a V6, would prop up previous V8 models. Think what the 296 did/does for the F8. Edit: don't think it goes up "massively," but there will be stronger demand for SF90 once the replacement is announced. I guess time will tell, until then enjoy these cars and don't stress too much over $50-100k, if you do, probably not the appropriate car to buy.
Again from someone with no skin in the game, my advise would be to seat and wait until replacement is introduced. Market will move then and that less 1y away. Unless you don't care about a 2/300k haircut or time is running out fast for you, waiting one year and maybe picking a stable toy to scratch the itch until then as Mark advised would be the prudent way to go.
Those speculating that the floor on asking price for coupe models at Ferrari dealers have a corporate initiative to maintain a certain sales target, two separate dealers confirmed that for me during my shopping if that is of any help. One 2022 model I was looking at with CPO basically was better for the dealer to keep in inventory with whatever subsidies Ferrari seems to be offering rather than sell it to me at what the market price seemed to be demanding outside of the Ferrari dealer network. I wound up with a 2023 year with a significantly higher MSRP because of that, so I don't really want to complain. I feel blessed to have been pushed that direction because I love the car. I also can't stress enough how amazing these cars truly are for the price. The SF90 used market is in line with the new Hybrid Lambo entry level model once you start to properly spec that car but the SF90 is light years better in every performance metric. I am intimate with both brands and have had many of each. The business model both have taken doesn't excite me, but the Ferrari experience makes my money feel better spent. I am not a car flipper or anything like that but I am someone who trades often. I don't care to spec the perfect car and do the whole wait forever thing. I will gladly continue to buy gently used exotics with CPO warranty from both brands. The current market is setup for my place in life right now. A gently used SF90, 296 or even Roma is the bargain of the century from my vantage point. I now can afford the cars of my dreams and still have some pennies for other investments. I can have the cars immediately if I can find the spec I want and someone took almost all the initial deprecation for me. What's not to love?
Thank you, that helps understand some of the dealers motivation. If the car is on consignment, do you think dealers still get these incentives? I spoke to one dealer about a car they noted was on consignment and was surprised how they didn't take me seriously at all, it very much seemed like they were in no hurry to move the car that's been sitting there since October. Huge disservice to the actual seller.
Consigned cars seem to be the loophole. That's how I wound up with my 2023 car. The dude needed the cash and the car gone. I got a DEAL.
Most cars at F dealerships are on consignment, they make cars in on trade here and there but they dont buy used cars. They know it's a falling knife. Sellers are holding on hoping to get something closer to their asking price but it doesn't seem to be happening other than one here and there.
I see Ferrari dealers who never advertised lower prices in the past slashing SF90 asking prices by 50k to 100k. These are typically color cars that don't fall in the 'safe' category like red or black. Anything else just sits for months unsold. The black roof seems to be another detail that hurts resale if it wasn't chosen. Some cars have been sitting there over a year now! Independent dealers also have cars with delivery miles sitting unsold month after month to.
I’ve been taking notice from the start poorly spec cars not going to do well at all ! Good spec cars will continue to find ground
Ferrari Beverly Hills has what seems to be about a $900k MSRP spider both AF and TM with 65 miles for $658k. The Giallo Montecarlo exterior is what's probably not helping.
One thing Giallo Montecarlo does very well is show off the design details. However just like that Verde Kers there is no middle ground; buyers are either strongly for or against that color choice!

Speed is one factor and to a certain extent is irrelevant in the big scheme of things having said that it is 900HP + so it will not be a slouch, I have first hand knowledge on the crazy motor in the Temerario and it will be an exciting thing to experience, I am really looking forward to the car.
I have spent a bit of time with the engineering team who designed and built the motor, I couldn't care any less about sound, I was driving the Revuelto yesterday and at some point I wanted to turn the engine sound off LOL
I haven't driven it yet and I will reserve that comment until I do so but it is a very special motor with lots of potential, I can't wait to test it.
Not a spec I am looking for, but this pricing doesn't seem bad. Is there a bigger risk by not buying from a Ferrari dealer? Is that what pricing is trying to reflect? https://www.dupontregistry.com/autos/listing/2022/ferrari/sf90--spider/288156
Would it be delusional to try wait to get an SF90 coupe for around $400k? I'm ready to pull the trigger and trade in my huracan but, it seems like Ferrari dealers would rather hold onto the cars for months.
