  1. My eyes must be broken...I see Apertas asking 800-900k on ebay lololololol I know anyone can ask for whatever they want on a car but that's stupid ridiculous. And whoever believes Ferrari only made 500 is a total moron.
  2. I had a scandal aventador, I hit internet acclaim at one point when I flipped it, literally. Then got another 12 arancio vent shortly after then sold that. Now, I'm just rolling around in a fat wraith, nothing to be boastful about. I come on here once in awhile when I'm bored, been bored a lot lately hehe.
  3. I think it's still considered a "new" car, so for people looking for the new new, it's still one so it's keeping the prices afloat. Reminds me of what's happened with the GT4, but now, used examples are selling for far cheaper...for the longest time people wanted 20-30k over msrp used! Now one can be had, with mods and those sexy 918 buckets for under msrp. As a lambo guy, I prefer the muscular, aggressive looking stuff. The speciale is this weird blend of feminine curves and catfish angles. I always thought the regular 458 was "pretty", but lacked unf. The Speciale got more unf, but it got the uglier face of a catfish...like a Adrianna Lima after a facelift gone wrong. I follow this one ferrari dude on instagram, he posted a pretty hilarious comparison. I think he nailed it lmao complete with barbles and nostril vents!
  4. Ahhh how short our memories are. All the manual cars took a huge dump before clawing back in rage recently. That kinda statement though brotha, would be like saying all the non-Speciale 458s would skyrocket in price...yet all I see is drop, drop, drop. I'm a lambo guy, so that's probably why I never thought the Speciale was easy on the eyes...there's too much funky shit going on in the front, and it just doesn't pull off the stripes like the old CS or Scud imo. I'd take either CS or Scud over a Speciale any day of the week if it just boiled down to looks!
  5. If money is no issue, buy one now. If you have some chinese in your blood, then you will live by the age old adage of "buy low, sell high" and wait for prices to drop. It will drop before it appreciates like every other new car gaining age, it's no ThethetheFerrari or F12TdF.
  6. what a clumsy gearbox...jesus, my neck hurt just from watching the video.
  7. I think the highest asking price I have seen recently is $409k: http://www.ferrarisiliconvalley.com/used/F...39d6b329c0f.htm Last of the Pininfarina purebreds and viewable engine bay drop-top.
  8. No one knows the actual figures. If you hop on FChat, the most "accountable" figure based on the statistic that the US accounts for 31% of total production is 1,800s TOTAL for both 08 and 09. As for price skyrocketing, who knows? But one thing is pretty certain, they won't go any lower than today's prices (barring catastrophic economic crisis) There is also no shred of doubt that more than 499 examples were made of the Scuderia 16M, the only question that remains a mystery is how many more.
  9. And a 430 is no Scuderia. The differences between the two couldn't be more astonishing.
  10. the 488 puts the specialé to shame in both the looks and performance department. now we just need to confirm the sound is as good as chris harris claims it to be because from the vids, it didn't sound too great from the outside.
  11. I know a lot of people who adore dustbusters and donald duck =)
  12. 488 > 458 > Specialé in both looks and straight out peformance. The Specialé is probably one of the ugliest Ferraris to ever roll out of Maranello...they had such a good base to build up on, but somehow the in-house team still managed to find a way to fubar it.
  13. If I bought an ugly ass speciale, I'd be kicking myself in the head right about now...
  14. True, we can simply look at the '12 vs '13 and up aventadors...shifting is so much smoother, ride/dampening is über-compliant etc in the '13s and up. '12s drive like garbage in comparison if i am being brutally honest.
