Looking to buy a Ferrari. Need advice/opinions

You'd rather buy a Ferrari than live on your own? You're still living with your parents. Buy a cheaper sports car and then put a down payment on a HOUSE.
 
Pretending this is real for a moment, you could possibly pull off a lease. Hate to see what your insurance would look like though.

there are many more posts here stating common sense than there are people thinking he can afford it, so id say it was pretty common...
 
LOLOL, OMFG, 30 year loan for a car. In other news, I hope they put the Enzo or the Enzo FXX in GT5 full version.

One of the better forums out there for anything, and those guys know everything there is to know about Ferraris. If you're respectful and have readable grammar, they'll even treat newbies with common decency.
 
Hmm... We are a tifosi family ... including my wife as a tifosa ... and we make a lot more but we still dont think we can afford one ... i would say join the local FCA first ... as others said check into insurance and tuneups ... take a trip to maranello to get your fix ...

forza ferrari !
 
I would google any of these reputable, licensed Ferrari dealers a call.
They are more in your price range:

Tamiya
Testors
Revell
 
Diddn't Top Gear have a competition where each of them buys a Italian sportscar for <10K pounds? Did Clarkson get a Ferrari? So it's doable, although at the end of the day I think his crankcase exploded on the road.

No dealer offers a damn 30 year loan on a car.

Fail.

That's not what I was told at the dealer. He told me some banks are willing to give exotic loans for super expensive cars. The interest rate is a lot higher and they require big downpays. I'd put 30,000 down and my rate would be somewhere above 10%.

You can't afford it...

Dude just buy a used 345/355 for ~60G. Put 30 down, finance the other 30 with a 60 month loan ~$600/mo

Insurance will be in ~3-4G a year on that.

10/10

Jesus I hate forums that require logins to click any link and/or view images. Pretty much an immediate turn off for me if I have to register to do anything simple - such as even determine if I intend to stay with the site.
