    I realize how personal a choice this is, but I am trading in my Pozzi for either TDF or Adu Dhabi. Have seen lots of great pictures in TDF (and always willing to look at more), but does anyone have pictures of a car in Abu Dhabi or have first hand experience?

    Is your question directed to the value of the color for resale, or just the colors themselves? I have been told that certain colors hold higher resale value than others.

    Actually, I am interested in answers to both questions. Having said that, can anyone financially rationalize the purchase of a Ferrari?

    No but if you do get a Ferrari and do care about resale get either red or black. I had TDF and it gave the wholesale broker jerks an excuse to low ball me.

    Absolutely! Having a Ferrari will likely lead to more sex. It will make you feel more virile and women will be more entranced by you. More sex means you will be more happy in general. When you're happy, you'll be more productive and healthy. In addition, you will be perceived as "successful," which will garner you more business as being perceived as more successful, you will be perceived as more competent.

    No question about it. It makes absolute financial sense to have a Ferrari!

    ROFL!

    OP, if you care about resale or trade-in value go Rossa or Nero Daytona. White seems very popular for 458 but I don't know if that translates over to California.

    That being said, if you are going to spend over $200K for a ride, get the color that stirs your soul and let the others be damned.

    I'm guessing you might be a trial lawyer :)

    You made the purchase almost logical and rational to the OP's accountant

    And I thought I bought my car because it had a great interior and fantastic ride/handling :)
