Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Doug DeMuro

[Clyde Romero (clyderomerof4]

Sorry didn't read the entire thread but from the jest of it you can see that he bought the car for all the wrong reasons

If you have a girlfriend/wife with an ample bust line  in a halter top and a leather mini skirt and heels people are going too look!

Read Ferrari and you don't have to be a car person for it to draw attention to the car 

That's part of the marketing strategy for Ferrari 

The LOOK

The Japanese have been trying to copy that look for decades, remember the NSX BOMB  

And you know what,  I would guess that 95% of Ferrari owners buy the car for the looks because like Glen Close said in the movie the Devil Wears Prada " image is everything " and for the most part she is correct especially when it comes to men.

On another note should be finishing the car up on this Thursday, coolant top off and purge, adding R-12 to the a/c system etc.

And I haven't done due diligence yet on the engine but I think I have a 512M engine in the car because the alternator and battery terminals were different than the standard 512 engine 

Gotta go fly 

Happy holidays to all  

In victory you deserve Champagne

In defeat you need it!

     

Scars are Tattoos with better stories !

If you follow all the rules

You miss all the fun!

He shoulda bought an F550.

I went back and read the article again and I think he has the following main complaints about Ferraris:

1.  He didn’t like the “attention” that a red Ferrari gets, especially from “non car people”.
2.  He bought the sports car model that Ferrari makes and complains that it isn’t a gran turismo.
3.  He lives in a big city and had to garage it somewhere else.
4.  He realizes that selling a Ferrari is a pain in the ass and everyone is willing to pay a premium for pristine and expects a discount for cars in other conditions.
5.  After just a year of ownership, he recommends a Porsche.

Okay, so let’s tackle this argument and see if we can draw any real conclusions.

1.  He bought a red late model Ferrari, if he didn’t want attention, they do pain them in other colors, wonder if he’s familiar with blue.
2.  He bought the most sporty boy racer model and he expects it to be as useable as a Mondial/California/612/FF?  That’s why Ferrari makes other cars in their model range, but he probably thinks you’d be labelled soft or a pussy if you bought another model, because everyone on the internet is brilliant in understanding the marketing demographics.
3.  I just put this one down into being a poser that bought the wrong car, I don’t believe all of the hype any more but I still added on to the house so that I had ready access to the cars.
4.  Another poser that didn’t understand the difference between retail and wholesale at the high end of the market, maybe everyone has been listening to Clyde in trying to buy very illiquid assets in a tough market.
5.  This I just chalk up to him being an asshole.

End of the day, we get complaints from someone that is likely top 10%, trying to do the top 3% lifestyle on the cheap and realizes that the top 1% don’t care and he didn’t get any “specials” out of the deal.  This isn’t rocket science and it doesn’t even make good copy.  Just another bitter wannabe douchebag trying to make a nickel off of trashing Ferrari.  Ya
