most if not all of the new Ferrari buyers are Posers
they have a coffee and cars thing here in ATL on the first sunday of the month 
and you should see the wash and wax crowd !!!
my god it's shameful but you know what its their money !
even Justin Beaver has one (458)
the dealers do what ever dealer does 
perpetuate the HYPE across the board
just look at the NISSAN GTR what a anchor chain that is! 
Ferrari would see what Porches sells but people think that Ferraris break down so the sales never reach the big numbers
if they only knew!
and you know what I don't tell them either!
Car and driver did a large issue on the highly regarded P car and they have some serious issues as well
MY GOD my child isn't perfect!
Love it
gotta go guys

buy the car because you want the car 
drive the paint off of it
those idiots who pay millions for older models will end up like the housing market we all just went thru
because the younger crowd ( yes Olivia there is a younger crowd out there with deep pocket, Bill Gates etc) doesn't give a damn about a GTO Ferrari or a RR that had some Kings ass in it.

Love ya 
Mean IT !!!

What is more interesting to me is the validity of the opinions of the critics on any Ferrari, most can't even afford a belt change, let alone the total cost of ownership.  Dealers will tell you anything to move inventory or get you to order something that helps their allocation.  

Just remember, the F50 was this guy's vision on what a Ferrari should be.

Heh heh â as far as the child safety seats go â Iâm with ya.  BUT that said, the ownerâs manual does devote two pages to âchild safety restraints.â  It includes how to set it up and why there is a manual belt on the passenger side.  Covers size, weight, height â commands reader to read the seats manual etc.  alas.

 

Could a kid tolerate the noise?  Again â Iâm with ya.  But one thing for sure â in a long trip an adult passenger is bound to lose a filling or two due to terminal vibration.  My guess is that a person riding a â47 spring Harley can ride further per day than a passenger in an F50.  Just my take.  As a driver?  Iâll take it from Los Angeles to New York.  Yeeee hah

It's funny how the 'critics' all panned the F-50, but one just set a record-price at auction for $1.5MIL a few months back.  Let's see - stick-shift, check.  Mid-engine Formula 1 V-12, check.  Removable roof, check.  Two seats and nuthin' else - check.  REAL Pininfarina styling - check.  Bad-azz noise in the back, check.  RARE - check.....hangs with the F-40 on the track - check.  Of course the critics panned it - it wasn't a BMW 3 series.

 

Child safety seat?  Uh - HELL no.  I doubt little kids would tolerate the noise, the heavy acceleration, the hard braking, rough ride, etc.  Might as well put a child safety seat in a Lotus 7.  Yea, that will work-out well....

The Ferrari F50 devotes several pages to how to correctly fasten a child seat to the passenger seat.

 

Never can tell when mama may want to use the car to get a quart of milk.

But you don't understand......there are buyers (whom Ferrari is courting) who WANT these 4-seat, all-wheel-drive, Italian-Mercedes hatchbacks.  People WANT to haul their children, the dog, skiis, beach chairs, coolers, etc. in their $300K+ Ferrari during a Nor'Easter snowstorm in the Poconos.....because they want to.  So, naturally, Ferrari had to build "them" a car.....and here we are.

That is a shocking photo.  It must have been a heart attack for the "professional" (where&apos;s reverse on this thing?) driver.

I think everyone has the same reaction though:  lucky break for the owner to have an easy out of the FFugly, just write it off to insurance and you&apos;re free and clear to go get an Aston Rapide or just get a Range Rover if you want four-up motoring in a prestige land yacht weighing a couple of tons.
