    FWIW I've found it more often than not I get more accurate info on Ferrari from reading Fchat than asking my dealer questions....

    Maybe, or maybe it will be like CS/Scud? Very hard to tell what the future may hold. I don't have a horse in that race but I'd rather geek out on the specs/looks than values if or when the time comes

    At this rate I wouldn't be too surprised if it was announced early next year while some people haven't gotten their Pista yet lol, been a pretty frenetic pace

    It’s always been that way the forums know way more than the average car salesman.

    In my case that's just not true. I am very happy for the Pista owners. I dare say im pissed at Ferrari for the F8 . Should have been a F8 VS with limited number after the PISTA.
    I new from day one whether I could get a Pista or not i just didn't want it. That's my case : No carbon , and this car with no carbon is stupid.
    And I will have the same reaction if there is a F8 VS either with carbon or livery , its a NO

    Is it possible to order a F8 with a Tubi exhaust from the factory ?

    Heh, oh you will get the carbon and pay for it. It will just be hidden beneath the leather, which you will also pay for lol..

    Yep. The few guys I have spoken to, who are still saying that there will be an F8 VS, were all previously upset about either being not offered a Pista or not having the funds at the time.

    No one…I mean no one, could have predicted this run up. Had we predicted it, we’d be sitting on 50 of these cars right now. I did make two decent purchases in spring 2020. I grabbed a 05 Ford GT for $265 and a 17 Dodge Viper for $165. I figured both of those would never go lower, but I figured all the late model stuff would follow normal patterns. I was way wrong.

    Don’t count on it. It may be lower price but people with money will still spend it. The F8 is an instant classic. If the 296 ends up having a bunch of problems the F8 will become more valuable. Book it!

    I doubt the market will hold at current price levels especially with where the economy is heading. I hope I'm wrong cause I have cars and more coming.
