    In Feb. I think Las Vegas was flying high, all the casinos and hotels were full, But now I heard it's a ghost town, I wonder if owners of exotics who make their income off tourists will have to dump the toys? I guess Craigslist.com will have the answer. Maybe dealers can lower car payments and stretch out payments (will Bernie, an avowed Socialist, if he becomes President, want to help Ferrari owners?)

    No, Bernie will only be interested in helping Audi R8 owners.

    The other question: would you want to own a rental exotic?

    Remind me again why Ferrari owners are a special category that need financial assistance?

    Well I've resigned myself that I'm going to have my 355 for a while longer, unless I want to bail by trading to a dealer. It annoys my wife to have two but thankfully we are not financially precarious.

    But I think deals for cars will hit in 2-3 months and roll for a year or more. I can't imagine how cheap certain cars like McLarens will get... If their dealers stay open, that could be tempting later.

    is a $50k 12C appealing? I'm not so sure.

    Ryan. I am on the McLaren "wait list". I think another 25% down or more from today is easily possible in the next 6-12 months. .

    Of course it is, you just saved the other $50,000 for repairs.

    Keith: a 675LT, 600LT or 720S would be the ones to get.

    600LT spyder under $200k with some factory warranty left is a compelling opportunity

    Thank you Ryan and thank you for the book plug BOKE. We almost pulled the trigger on a dark blue 650s a few years ago (I forget the McClaren name Arctic blue maybe?...it's the TdF blue and they also have the exact "cuio" (spelled that right?") interior colour as Ferrari. I think 720s is the way to go. Gotta have that dark blue. We have an ML 350 in that colour and really like it

    From the shields in the garages, I can assume it is a home of someone we know?

    I’d sell my home, take the equity, pay off the CS, and live in a one bedroom apartment that has a garage before I sell the CS.
