I have a pal, that has an 2008 and wants to get rid of, great car, but with the roof being a pain on and off, he barely drives it.. I guess it all depends where you live in the USA. God luck either way

Is this a trick question for this forum?

Isn't two GT's and the Lambo the coorect answer, if you have to acquire the Lambo?

Just kidding, good luck with your quest.

'Get rid of the F-car & get the Murci. 'Simple!

Then, later on down the road if you want to buy a similar F-car BACK - you'll be "buyin' it at a discount"! lol!

The F-car value is tanking, much faster than the GT

When the new 458 comes out the 430 prices will approach $75K, just like the 360 today.

A new Murci is due out in late 2010 as well too....

So from an arbitrage situation....your in a sweet spot....drop the F car now , wait on murci

which F-car do you have? if it is not an Enzo, F40, 599 or a 288 gto then sell it and buy the new 458 that is coming out

Only way I would own a F-car or Lambo other than for resale would be way below what they are currently selling for ( NOT asking prices which are immaterial) because the depreciation & service will eat you alive. If you like burning money and totally HAVE to have one then go for it....just be warned. The Ford GT is a rare Ford. Very inexpensive to service in comparison, the steering column is from a Focus and the door handles are off of the tailgate of an Explorer...get my point. They aren't making more which WILL hold the value up. They are continuing to make Ferraris and Lambos and they will continue to drop.

My solution would be shake the F-car and buy another F GT. :thumbsup

Are the Gallarados service $ pits too?

I read that they are essentially built by Audi in Germany; then assembled in Italy.

The Murci on the other hand rolls on the archaic saint agata assembly line...which explains why its being discontinued.

Bingo. There are THEEEEEE 2 biggest reasons why you'll pbly never see a Lambo or F-car in Pockets' garage ... unless or until my net worth exceeds that of Bill Gates. And even THEN I'd r-e-a-l-l-y hafta think about it!:biggrin

I agree with Randy on that one!
