The five-year lifecycle of the 488 could soon become the norm in growing supercar arms race Snippet from Motoring.com
Quite likely. But it is also possible for some models to be more loved than others, and now those models *might* have a more limited supply. I wouldn't mind if there were only 7,000 458's around instead of 15,000.
Shorter production cycles doesn’t necessarily mean fewer units produced, either overall or of one given model. I guess that’s the case here with the “new” Ferrari (company): less time making them, but making more of each one of them. Kind regards, Nuno.
I swear, and I mean SWEAR, that the Pista will be the last new Ferrari I ever buy...I can stop whenever I want. I don't need help. This time I'm serious...I can stop whenever I want...must...be...strong. Oh, and THIS TIME, I'm really going to put miles on it. Yea, that's right, miles. I mean, yea, like 1000 miles.
I’m targeting 360 CS next, but first need to get the garage (aka house I guess) as I won’t sell my 488 or 911. Happy I had the opportunity to experience and buy my first Fcar to my spec but won’t need to do it twice. Not especially with Ferrari shortening model life cycles *and* more regs trying to neuter/kill the internal combustion engine Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Not sure on pricing but make sure you get roof checked out if purchasing. https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/575-superamerica-bad-roof.354828/ I always thought they were cool cars. An old school Ferrari front engined v12 convertible. Whats not to like?
What ever floats your boat. I think it has the single most hideously looking roof mechanism ever fitted to a car. They did the beautiful 550 Barchetta, and then they did a 180 with the 575 Super America. Is it a good investment? No idea. Is it fun to drive? No idea. I just really don like the look.
If you're ready for a $60K-$80K roof replacement when it stops working and delaminates, you're good. Image Unavailable, Please Login The last V8 I would buy is the 458, and the last V12 I'd buy is the F12, but I'm old and set in my ways. And really, I'll never sell my 360 manual, and would not mind a 612 manual conversion. Ferrari is obviously going after the new money now, and that makes objective sense for a publicly traded company. Got to keep the shareholders happy.
