I'm with you Matt - I've bought a lot of tires there and always had great service from them.

I've never understood the appeal of the SuperAmerica. 

I think of it as the "Only in America."

The thing with 575's now is, just try to find a really great one.

I was on the fence about color (wanted black cabin over red body) and found a perfect black over black at the local dealer at a "this is not worthy of our illustrious showroom" price for it to be dispensed to the great unwashed.  It was missing a few "very nice to have's" like some documentation and details, it wasn't ready to be driven, it was looking a little scruffy underneath and the engine bay had already been "detailed" (spit) so there no way to eyeball its mechanical condition.  Plus, I'm not someone to just say "Oh, $100K, I'll just pay the money and take my chances."

I took maybe 10 hours overnight to come back and see it again (you know how your eyes "see" a car in more detail the second or third time.)  Sure enough, not just sold, it was sold and being picked up that morning.  Someone smarter than me knew what they were looking at.  Grumble, grumble.  Another "one that got away" story in a very thick book of memoirs ...

But seriously, $60K for a 575?  I mean a decent one, not auction block fodder with  CostCo tires, Jiffy Lube receipts, 10 owners and 70 entries in the carfax.

The 550/575 are already there 

Pay no more than $60 k 

That's the wholesale on the car

You can even see the ruling class on the superamerica getting religion 

There are 9 of then for sale now in the US 

Can you imagine having paid $500k for a car and cannot get even a paltry $200 K for it now

Talk about Ferrari hype
