488 Pista - qualifying demands

Agree.
Furthermore, I credit LDM with "turning around" Ferrari and making I the powerhouse it is today....not Enzo.

 

Pista allocations for early 2020 are already being made so even though this is not a limited edition, I think it unlikely that everyone who wants one will get one.

in the US the second year 2020 allocations are gone...so its done, 2 years for the coupe and spider. Will be interesting to see what they are announcing in Dec.

 

I just think that with the "special" / "track" versions of the stock V8 mid engine cars it will be business as normal ...... they will follow the path of the CS, Scud & Speciale to be desired and valued by many for years to come.

 

I agree with all of your 2 cents, except the frigging ADM for the RS.. I am just SO TIRED for Porsche dealers charging ADM, and then they justify it by calling it supply and demand regardless of loyalty of the long time customer... Oh well, I thought grass is greener here in Ferrari, but the F dealer game of buying this and that for 812 and pista is no better. Anyway, I just replied screw you to the porsche GM who just emailed me about trading in my previous GT cars and I told him I only drive Ferrari now and I sold all the GT cars because I was pissed.

 

Tho most Pistas are in the mid to upper $400s that is because they went to town with the options.

 

Plus 1

 

Not sure what Pista will do to Speciale, but if you don’t mind miles there are definitely a couple Speciales with 10k miles that could be had for under $325k. These cars are meant to be driven!

This is a good point. Toyota also makes a metallic silver that in person is every bit as good as any silver Ferrari paint. An experienced paint shop familiar with both can be a good detail source but its still a matter of opinion. Its the body Ferrari puts the paint on that is so gorgeous and non-pedestrian.

 

This is like saying Coach makes a handbag every bit as good as Hermes. Doesn't matter, woman want the Hermes

 

Omg! You tell my wife that!!

You put that stupid hermes bag in walmart, and you ask random people to guess the price. I guarantee without having dinner the experiment, most would not have guessed near 1/100 of the real price.

With Ferrari, even if I debadged everything, people would still guess it's an expensive car.

 

Anyone interested in buying a 2016 Porsche GT3/RS, many in Canada available for $165US - $170US with 5K miles on them.

 

You understand that everyone just chuckled a bit by you saying that you left Porsche to go to Ferrari because of dealer games right? -.

 

thought you guys would get a kick out of this...image Julie took. She titled this picture 'the moment Tim learned what the Pista cost'

Well said

 

Right? Tell me about it!!! But hey at least I got 7 year free maintenance program! That's what I told myself when I was sulking...

 

This picture is perfect for meme caption competition.

 

If stock price is an indicator of the financial health of a company, then Ferrari needs a massive dose of antibiotics. Share price has plummeted from a high 6 months ago of almost $150 to todays price of just over $104. Perhaps it is time to change company marketing and selling strategy.

 

150 wasn't warranted though, the metric was rediculous for the EBITDA .

 

That will motivate them to make more special editions and jump to 10k total volume in a short span of time

 

I have come to the conclusion that I really don’t care anymore if I get the Pista.
If it comes find, if not I will still be happy with my cars I already have.
