^Will the person who buys this also need to set aside another $36,800 for maintenance/repairs?

I talked to the owner for like an hour when I sold him some R8 coils. He seems to really take good care of his cars. He showed up in the W12 and he has 3 of them lol.

He claimed he got 20L/100KM which is similar to E92 M3 / C63

While it has 450hp a 0-60 time hovered around the 6 second mark, plenty of modern SUVs are faster than that. Like the X5 m50i is under 4 seconds, even the x5 40i can do it around 5 and you see plenty of those on the road.

No one needs more power, but when you can afford it, you do.

if this thing didnt have any major accidents, then its REALLY GOOD DEAL @ 52,000




With the CF package, customized interior, it was well over 200k back in 2013.
Im very familiar with these cars inside and out so if you need any advice hit me up. Anything past 2012 will already have the ferrari variators issue addressed so that'll save you 10k already on future maintenance

The one time I bought a car from a dealer, was from CarMatch, and I got a lemon

Undisclosed 3" holes in the subframe, one failed brake caliper, brake pads with 10% left, battery would empty out after leaving the radio on for 10 minutes, 4x4 would overheat, plus whatever else was listed on the mechanical inspection by my typical mechanic

Il never trust a word out of a used car salesman ever again

The ironic part, is that they get you to stand beside your car with a smile after your purchase, and they take a pic for their website or Instagram or whatever

I was not smiling 48hrs later

Saw this granturismo a few months ago, the interior in real life is a lot worse than those pictures show

Made an offer on one of their cars about 6 months ago and they said their asking price is only $1k above their cost so there was no way they would sell at my offer. I just checked again and that same car is still listed and asking $10k below their "cost"

white interior is pretty rough to keep in good condition. The GT is also notorious for the interior leather to start delaminating from the lower parts of the dash (underneath the glove box, underneath the door pockets, etc)

the dealership has special "glue" they use to fix it. but its just something to be wary of. also typical ferrari sticky buttons. if you see a super sticky button maserati or ferrari, that means this dude often left it outside and probably wasnt garage kept.

LOL. The SavageGeese review showed some of that when they reviewed an used 458:

Just brutal fit and finish.
