Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Dumb money

[Fellippe Galletta (fellippe.galletta]

If you really have unlimited funds, any car at any price makes sense. I truly believe that. Many of these Wall Street guys fit that category. 

For average Joes, yes I agree....if you never had an exotic before....$90k for a GTR for most hardcore enthusiasts is a reach. 

But you have a few real exotics and you're looking for a fast daily driver.....the GTR is legit, and the 360 is not even in the conversation. 

If one had a few modern and vintage exotics and it came down to adding a 360 or a GTR, I'd probably lean away from the Ferrari to have something different. 

You could flip the argument around and say that for the price of a 250 GTO you could buy every Lamborghini model ever built, and probably ever Ferrari from the early '70s onwards. And maybe still have money left over for some late model Maseratis. 

I only get into these debates because most people I know aren't ultra elite wealthy and hence we have to take these cars for what they really are. I see a brand new base 911 carrera as a meh car because it does a lot of things nicely but not one thing great since the 993, IMHO. 

I told CG IV once that they make nice rental cars. :)

2014 Nissan GTR

$89,990

You have to ask yourself if you had that much disposable income to spend on a car 

Would in fact drop that much on a Nissan

You could buy a 360 for that
