Ferrari Mailing List: Re: "A Rough Ride in Collectible Cars"

[rolindsay (rolindsay]

When I read this subject line I was reminded of the comments of a friend's 
wife. Scott had just decided to buy a 328GTS, after driving my GTB. On the way 
back to his house I gave his wife a ride. Upon arrival, an excited Scott asked 
Carol how she liked it. She said she didn't like it  because "...expensive cars 
are supposed to be smooth and comfortable."  Scott and I both realized that the 
whole Ferrari experience had escaped her. 

Best,

Rick
PS: Scott bought the 328 anyway. :-)

Subject: [Ferrari] "A Rough Ride in Collectible Cars"


In case anyone would like to read the article, which begins:
 
"For some, the first sign of trouble was a Daytona Spyder.
 
"When one of these rare early-1970s Ferrari sports cars turns up at an auction, 
high-end collectors typically bid aggressively, even fiercely, to acquire it. 
But at a recent sale in California, one Spyder failed to fetch the minimum bid.
In recent years, the vintage car market has soared, led by the priciest 
European models. But now, as the economy worsens to the point where even the 
wealthiest collectors feel pinched, demand for million-dollar sports cars is 
starting to skid."
