I don't understand how people are willing to pay 40K EUR for a fake Ferrari when you can have a real F430 for 70K EUR or a very nice 308 GTS for 40K (and 355 and 360 between these prices).
Sure, maintenance may be a bit lower but I can't even begin to imagine the "resale value" of a fake one.
Due to the high volume of production of new Ferrari (compared to before), prices are now free-falling and there are models losing 15K EUR per year. So "fetching" a nice one, with low mileage, for a "reasonable price" (say between 60K and 80K) is not as far-fetched as most people think.

You can find Toyota parts any day of the week on just about any street corner, same thing when it comes to a mechanic. Plus Toyotas are built to be daily drivers, not so much Ferraris.
- blhack 13y agoBecause you can't drive a 308. It's 30 years old, and its engine is constantly about to blow up (at least it feels that way) And when it does, your 40k goes \poof\ with it. Source: been around somebody who owned one of these, he was much happier when he sold it and bought a corvette.
