I bid up to $138K, thats a GORGEOUS car, but nontheless over paying on these cars are rough. Patience is the way to go. That one is Trully the hottest of the bunch!

Figure i can get one about the price that im bdding for on the Gallardo, roughly $135K. And it is brand new! I hope you guys can see why these choices are so hard for me to make. I really like them all. Thus the poll and reasoning.

![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: The best exotic to purchase While I myself am really attracted to the Lambos, I have to suggest the Ferrari for the simple reason that as you have noted yourself, despite the age, they hold their value really well. When getting into this price class of cars, I would not want my car to depreciate at all. I am not familiar with the production numbers, but my guess is that the Ferraris would have the lowest number of cars produced. And that's a real good thing. When paying somewhere between 100 and 200K, you dont want the market ever to be saturated with the model you own. And as for the turning heads, if that's what you want: All of these cars will do it just the same, maybe the GT the least.

![]() | Re: The best exotic to purchase I don't see why many people are going for the Ford GT. I personally love it. It's achingly beautiful, incredibly fast and it's an American icon, not to mention it would probably hold it's value better than any of the aforementioned cars. If you look past the badge, it's simply one of the greatest cars of the world. Wonderful. |
