I think i’ll leave this here. I’m off to start a thread about someone else’s car being worth f**k all in 6 months time. ;)
If you keep it as long as the GS it won't matter.... enjoy it ffs!

Just a bit of fun....might as well do a little research and see how far off we are:

3200 RRP £55k - 40% residual £22k (market average £13k)
4200 RRP £57k - 40% residual £23k (market average £15k)
Spyder RRP £62k - 40% residual £25k (market average £18k)
GranSport RRP £66k - 40% residual £27k (market average £27k)
GranSport MCV RRP £70k - 40% residual £28k (market average £50k)
GranSport Spyder RRP £69k - 40% residual £28k (market average £45k)
GranTurismo RRP £82k - 40% residual £33k (market average £25k)
GranTurismo S RRP £90k - 40% residual £36k (market average £35k)
Stradale RRP £115k - 40% residual £46k (market average £60k)

Like anything Italian, if its rare, it outperformes, if its not it underperformes.

Blimey. If I ever had a car I lost 5k on over 4 years I would be delighted. As bob will tell you though. I am lucky to keep them 6 months.
Had dinner the other day with a mate who had just picked up his new 488 - says will keep it forever!

Will believe it when I see it! Average length of Ferrari ownership is 6-9 months the main dealers tell me. I didn’t believe it until I spent 6 in a Cali.. then 5 in a 458. Not a hint of being tempted by a 488 (turbo though)

Magpies. Hence why product life cycles for supercars are getting shorter and shorter.
Bobs right. They see something more shiny / powerful/ newer/perceptually more desirable and move on. I was guilty. I am now thinking about the Cali T. I realised - as I think Phil alluded to on another thread) that you can rarely make the most of the 458 unless you are at silverstone or pulling up outside a casino in Monte Carlo. Unfortunately I don’t spend much time doing either of that- so a run out with my mates or wife and daughter is best serviced in a convertible 4 seater which will ‘only’ manage 3.7 to 60

Why do owners only keep them such a short time?

Not sure ... my friend has had his 2009 gts since new and his 458 Italia.

There used to be a trick where you line up multiple Ferrari purchases with timed delivery and due to the long waiting list etc you could flip the car for the same price after say 9 months just before you take delivery of the next new one and basically keep driving them for free. Not sure if it still works

Thats a good point.Ferrari cotton onto it though - although you can flip them like this, the main dealers say if they find out they won't let you buy another. The more I get to know the dealerships, the more BS this sounds like! They just don't like the idea of buyers getting good VFM. The portofino is being quoted as a 18 month wait from deposits now to most buyers so I am sure that would still work.

Because those with sh1t loads of money get bored quickly.....and because the have a sh1t load of money can change when ever they want. Think there are just too many cars to try before you die and if you have the dosh then why not try them all until you find the right one.

Speaking to Amari now.

It's had £13k spent on it in under a year, new Carbon ceramics,, pads, f1 system.... too cheap and old for them to retail hence priced to sell. Dilemma!!!

Case in point of short ownership, take this Stradale, 5 years old, 8 owners. Clearly owned by people who didn't realise the costs of ownership, couldn't live with it or have a short attention span. Only £49,999

Now that is just stunning....White just suits the two seater so well. Good to see it has the carbon dash bits as well that just lifts the interior that bit more than the dull grey stuff that's standard. Low miles and a bloody good price. Wouldn't think it was a cat recorded car as not seen one at Amari before. Pretty sure they wouldn't sell it if it was but could be wrong.

This is the one that was for sale privately at 54k until about a week ago. Started off at 62k I believe and slowly been coming down over the months. That had new carbon discs etc. If they are selling for 50k the owner must have had his pants pulled down.

Don't get that statement ... too cheap and old to retail........What are they doing with it then as the advert seems to be a retail advert to me.
