Those are countries with wealthy governments, that doesn't necessarily mean the people are. Country comparisons are illogical regardless. The US is supposedly a country and it has 310mil+ people, so is it fair to compare to let's say Switzerland with 7 million? A better comparison is specific regions of the world.
Considering all of the Ferraris sold in the Land of the Free, what US-based auto shows does Ferrari S.p.A. typically exhibit in? I believe they were in Miami last year, but can't recall them anywhere else.
But incorrect data, since some country's "benefit" from the registrations from high taxed neigbouring country's. It would've been more interesting to see sales per dealership and/or per country than registrations.

I was interested particularly in the UK. I would not imagine that applies here. That said Luxembourg was a surprise and it may well apply there.
Ireland's SIMI.IE site publishes no monthly Ferrari registrations, so not sure if any Irish Ferrari's are registered in the UK, or they use tax havens such as Guernsey / Jersey. Place - MFN Duty Rate - Sales Tax Guernsey - 10% - 0% Jersey - 10% - 5%
Not something I have heard about. Could not say one way or the other though. I'm not there is a Ferrari dealer in either Guernsey or Jersey.

Figures need to be population and region adjusted, it absolutely dumb for example to compare USA to a country with a few million people. Direct comparisons between artificial entities like USA vs EU etc would be more accurate or very specific regions like Los Angeles vs London etc. I mean Hong Kong is a city state not a country.
