If you're really in the market for a 488GTB, you're crazy. There's a good reason everyones after McLaren's & Lambo's instead nowadays.

They'll be alongside the M3 company car pics.

As some extra news... today I have just landed 2 very large contracts which have a turnover of over £2m this quarter (networking hardware CAPEX) and ongoing support of£23k/month. I have also had some really good trading results

For reals?

488GTB, £50k'ish, heavy on the 'ish.

Pretty sure this is well into Portable Sun / Oracle / DiamondMark territory. Sad really.

The funny thing is he doesn't need to sell his bitcoin, not realising, that you currently can't anyway....

Roll on March when...nothing happens

Definitely a shame, nice little feature.

I'm not saying it's fake by any stretch. It does feel as though OP is not after any real advice, mind you.

I prefer Kingsmill... would the forum accept something that I'd actually... like something from a proper baker?

You mean... McLaren's that have to have engineers out to visit them every 5 minutes?

720S has a lonnnnnng build queue... still going to look at one, but the stories of them is putting me off until the bugs are ironed out... they also depreciate significantly.

Their lack of LSD really puts me off... has always annoyed me in my Porkas so think that's enough to put me off for this purchase.

Only people who can't drive buy Lambos... if you want 4WD, but a Landy

Always wanted a Ferrari since I was a kid... absolutely love the sound of the F12/812 engine... I think it's going to be an F12 as I like FR layout more than MR normally... but I'm going to try both to make up my mind. The 488 is definitely the prettier of the two. But V12...

 

[DAIR]

I'm so confused right now. Where can you bag a Ferrari for 50ish K?

 

[crinkleshoes]

You can't... well, maybe a 360... I upped my budget.

488GTB total cost of ownership will be lower than a Lambo or McLaren because of the slower depreciation.

To be fair to the thread title, it will probably cost him £50K over three years.

From the chat I had, I doubt it will be that expensive... F12 has the possibility to appreciate, but even if it doesn't - shouldn't lose too much.

They come with a comprehensive 4 year warranty from new and that's extendable... 7 year inclusive servicing.

Main costs will be tyres, break pads, insurance & fuel...

488 will lose more of the purchase price, but even looking at 458 prices... I don't think it'll hit that much cost over 3 years.
