My guess is he is someone nearing the end of his education with decent income opportunity on the near horizon... Not a troll, but a someone who has dreamed of Ferrari's most of their life. An enthusiast. I spent more time than I should have drooling over copies of Dupont Registry when I was a student... Lots of opinions on down payment. Some will say 100% is the only way to go. Others will say borrowing money is cheap so why use my own??
Borrow as much as you like, but be sure you have the means to pay off the whole damn thing with a stroke of the pen if you need to. And if you can't write a $10k check out of the blue for a potential repair, I would not buy it.
I just want something positive to come to my life from these blogs for once. I go to a top 4% college and will graduate at the end of this year. The jobs in my market are paying upwards of 100k dollars. I want to get a house or a mortgage first for a place that’s around 600k by taking advantage of all these first time home buyer programs. Then I’ll look for a loan for like a 812 super fast because what bank will want to turn down someone with 10? 20? Percent down and good enough credit to get a house. (No credit wise cracks.) and a house they can put against their car? Am I going in the right direction? I just want something positive to come to my life from these blogs for once.

People are just trying to help, don' take it negatively. You haven't given much insight into your situation other than you plan on going $1 million into debt right out of school making $100k/year pre-tax. I'm no financial expert, but that doesn't sound like a solid plan. Do you have student loans? Other debt? Do you really need a $600k house and a $200k+ car? Probably not. Don' **** up your entire life to drive a cool car.
If you own one then why can’t I. I got a lot of scholarships and went to community college so I don’t owe as much as most. And I’ve already started paying it back.
100k after fed taxes and state is what? 60-70k after tax income? 5-6k per month? Not on a $250k new car You can’t do it and eat. Not unless you have a serious down payment on both house and car...
I’d be making the average so prob around 175k and I’ll just save up 30k for a down payment with all the first time home buyer programs. Then the day after I move in, get the auto loan going. From what I’m guessing is they’ll be fighting over each other if I can put a 600k house against a 812 Superfast. How much down payment we looking at? 10? 20? Percent.
No, from a fiscal responsibility standpoint you are making a slew of mistakes. You need a cheap apartment and a Honda Civic. When you can put 30-50% down on the house, buy one. When you can afford a Ferrari cash, but have learned how to make your money do more for you than prime plus 1-2%, than finance one with 10-20% down. Until then, ramen noodles...Honda civic...and zero debt. Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat.com mobile app
I wanted to reach all the owners since they probably have the most real life experience that can help me. Do you?
I currently own 2 Ferrari's, 1 Maserati and I have a business in the industry. Lots of guys here can and will help you but not sure what help you are really looking for.
Advice as to weather I have a chance of getting a 300k Ferrari if I make 175k a year by getting a 600k mortgage before the auto loan. Simple as that. What are my chances? What do you think I need down payment wise? Advice on how to move forward?
Not too sure where u live and assuming that u mean what u are saying; u are going to live on rice and potatoes... Let’s assume u make. 100k no debts. Thats like what. 5500 a months? Then a mortgage for 600k is like 3000. U will have to pay pmi on ur loan etc. That leaves u 2500 to live. Ok not bad. But ur car payment on say a finance or lease of. 150k car will be like 1500-2000 With anywhere between 500-1000 left on 100k a year it’s going to be impossible. If you are indeed for real and not a troll; wait a few nore years for ur salary to be up OR consider something much cheaper like a 348-355 car. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
With those figures yeah u can . 175k is like what 10k net? Mortgage for 600k will be seen as a positive, specially after u paid a year or 2. So that’s probably like 3k for it and leaves u budget for ur car. There are several school of thoughts: some will tell u save , pay ur ferrari cash; some will spend and get loans earlier on in life. No right or wrong; just personal choices. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Down payment thread merged back into this financing thread. Really the same question - how much income and down payment does it take to buy a Ferrari right out of school. All 12 posts merged into one, so it's a little bit more obvious how annoyingly redundant the idea to quote each of 12 users with exactly the same reply is to other readers. And what have you done for these strangers on this chat board (not blog) that you feel entitled to help? It's one thing to come on a board and ask for some help. It's another to expect it as a right. Cool it and sift through the responses for those that meet your needs and be more tolerant of those that don't.
I may at times sound like I am trying to talk someone out of buying a Ferrari (someone mentioned earlier about keeping the club small or something), but I get at least 3 people contacting me every month about buying a car. Most of the time the car they want is not really the car they need. I have seen many people buy bargain basement cars because no matter what advise I gave them, they chose to not listen. None of those times did it end well, and some had terrible experiences that they swore they would never buy that brand again. Owning as many cars as I have a somewhat different perspective, you can get some information from reviews and videos but there is a huge difference between a C7 and an Evora 400, on paper they may be close, but in reality they are not. Owning a car, and living with a car are two different things in my book, as some owners put only a few hundred miles a year on their cars, but they are still owners. Each of the cars I own now has a purpose, some like my Mini Cooper S just gets used for runs to the mall. There are things about the Lotus that are better than the 430, things about the 430 that are better than the 4C, I could go on, but I am far from normal in many ways and 466 cars (and only slowing down a little) is not something I'd advise anyone to do. I am one of those FOD (friend of dealer) types, though I am incapable of kissing anyone's butt, and if I wanted a 488 (which I do) a build slot would open up. I did not win the lottery (but I got lucky in other ways) but looses on cars mean nothing to me. When I told Kenneth to go drive a 4C, that was good advise, they are amazing cars to drive and I intend to keep mine till I am too damn old to get out of it without help. If you are a smart young guy you would say hey that old dude with all those cars it telling me to go drive a Alfa 4C, hmmm maybe I should listen. Truth is Kenneth no modern Ferrari will give the pure driving experience of a 4C, and you can still buy a new one. If attention matters to you, you will be as much or more in the Alfa. I always ask this question, why do you want to buy.......? I rarely get an answer that makes sense!
OP, you need to be the one giving out advice. $175k first year out of community college? That's like 3 times higher than the average income in the country. Many many many college graduates would LOVE to know how you plan on making that much money.. you know what they say. When it sounds to good to be true...
