I have about $200k for a Ferrari, what model would you get?

Looks great...priced to sell!

 

I think you are looking in the right place, F430 or maybe Challenge Stradale. You will be able to get a great car well under your budget.

 

How about a 430 Scuderia? (Says the Scuderia owner)

 

What model do you want???

If you don't know what kind of car you want, how do you know you want a Ferrari?

 

That's a reasonable thought.

All the best,
Andrew.

 

No, to "get the ball rolling" what you need to do is spend many hours in this forum reading through all the threads for modern F cars in the models section. Also read many of the general discussion threads. You need to look for F car events and cars and coffee events in your area. Attend them and talk with current owners. Go prepared with intelligent questions ( not how much did you pay, what do you do).

After that you can come back here and be able to ask questions that members here can answer.

 

I faced the same decision. Couldn't pick which model I wanted.

Go to any local dealer who has one of every model you could be interested in. In my scenario that was an F430, 458 and 599. Then and there I decided the 599 was for me.

Spent the next couple weeks reading here until I was comfortable enough knowing as much as I wanted to know about them.

Don't ask for opinions until you at least have an idea what you want.

 

Bull****. He can come here and ask any question he wants, just like everyone else. There are no prerequisites for when someone can come on here and inquire about cars.

Of course he can, but I'm offering him constructive advice.

Fine, so what's your answer to his question? What do you think of that 2007 Ferrari 430? Help the guy out.

 

Not my style, way to feminine with the soft top and paddles.


Mark

 

All right, now that's helping the guy. He knows now not to bother with that kind of car.

Unless of course he plays for the other team. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

+1

 

With 200k you are close to early 458 coupes, and then there is the "feminine" California to stay with the theme of other posts

 

To piggy back on this, which Ferrari in this price range will make the best investment as far as resale? Thanks

 

599 stick.

 

I always have to wonder if these questions are for real???
Just can't figure why anyone who is looking for an F-car would have to ask everyone else what to buy and then possibly not know what models are within their budget.

I just don't get it.
These threads are futile. (IMO of course)

 

+1 or a 599 either is pretty good to take care of the 200 with some change..
not really crazy about the subject 430 shown .. everyone knows the first Fcar has to be red.....

 

I couldn't agree more. I assume the OP is legit, but if so he doesn't even know what he doesn't know. That's why I suggested he do his homework first.

 

Big money is moving into cars, amongst other tangibles, in a big way. Could be part of a cycle or something a little more......
