LOL!!! Has anyone ever seen a Muira? I have a lambo magazine that Bullstuff sent me when I ordered some parts and it had a few in Cali and Italy, but I have never seen one for real.

I think majority of my "dream" cars are very similar. But I could always list some other things I would want to have like an M4 or CTS-V Coupe but id have to have TOO MUCH money to start adding those to my garage. Things I can see myself realistically obtaining are Alfa 4C, Cayman S, Lotus Exige, Jaguar F-Type V6S. I don't plan on ever replacing the FR-S unless things change financially.

idk

I mean, you're totally right that if any of us got handed the keys and assurance that we were getting a free pass to flog it we would but I think even at the end of the day I would hesitate to take ownership and care for it long term always worrying about it and shelling out for expensive consumables.

How does one even sell a used Ferrari? can't imagine the craigslist ad... "lightly used, $200k, no lowballers, cash in hand before test drive!!!"

Edit: Thanks guys, totally forgot about stuff like Dupont, Hagerty, Hemmings, and various forums, no need to bring it up anymore.

oh man that one got me good.

There are things like Dupont Registry where you can look at and buy used Supercars and other high end things.

There's the occasional one in Orange County, CA. I saw one at one of the cars and coffee meets down there, back when those were first starting up.

Here's the concept next to a real one from the 2006 Detroit Auto Show.

Robb Report is another good source. Also the various forums. Ferrarichat, 6speedonline, lambopower, etc...

Yeah they did the gumball rally together, and filmed it. I don't think they released the compiled footage of that yet.

Hemmings Motor News

Or you put it up for auction. And list the auction in Hemmings.
