GTS to 599??? Help Me Take Emotion out of it...
#22
Nevertheless, the one shown in link there seems to be completely overpriced - or?
PS: 599..OK...but compared to your GTS it will like a panamera..drive it first. If youre more a sportscar fan, then better get a 458..

Passed on that one. Too many small things that didn't feel comfortable with. Plus BW seems like its back in the business of hitting the lotto with it's trade offers. Even if I wanted that car, they would make it difficult. They offered about $10k less than almost every other trade offer that I've received.
And it's MAROON. Too many Aggie fans around here would think I'm one of them.

No he was making a comparison of a Panamera to a 599, the OP has a 997 GTS and is getting rid of it for a 599, the responder told him the 599 would feel like a Panamera compared to the 997 GTS, this person obviously has no clue of what he is talking about.

Only issues I'm dealing with now are:
* Payments go up to the edge of my comfort zone
* OUT OF WARRANTY - Even though current Ferrari generations are much more 'reliable' and can be driven regularly...it's still out of warranty for a 07/08
* It's a classic Ferrari V12 GT...fits within that legacy of car.
* Did I mention the warranty thing???
* 4 years left of payments in this GTS...would be extending payments a few years with the 599.
* 599s have already taken hard depreciation hits with F12 launched, so I'm not as concerned with losing too much $$$ on a 599.
But I find myself absolutely hooked to getting one....so help me out in removing the emotional items and tell me what you think about this type of move. Or, go ahead and tell me that the emotion (for the Porsche or the Ferrari) is absolutely required here.
I look forward to the wisdom of the group given me some direction.

Yes, why would a ferrari be any different than any other car?

I guess a common misconception is that Ferrari buyers all purchase their cars with cash since they're so rich they can buy a Ferrari. A Lamborghini owner I know is paying off his car, lol.

Not that there aren't responsible people out there who can just pay for it, but I bet most are financed
