Comedyspan my hero!
You are the Real MVP man.
so that's all it or is there more?
bet the 675LT will fuck all of those up..lol
Comedyspan you are the best! I dont understand what is so hard for motortrend to comoare lap times...
Ferrari 488 GTB, its my dream car and now.. I got it! Its an amazing car! Had it for almost a year now.
Beautiful cars ,nice track & avery capable driver ,I enjoyed this contest very much thanks motor trend
MT: "Best Driver's Car is about more than just racetrack performance" ... proceeds to spend 80% of the videos on the racetrack with 30sec of road glamour shots
BlackBelt 2025
Do you seriously need a visual presentation on how this works?
Use Trollgun 01 An interactive flowchart with lots of pretty colors would be helpful ;-)
I believe they post a breakdown where they interview the other drivers and critics at MT after they've driven the Best Driver's cars on the road. These are just the hot lap countdowns.
Yeah their 40 minute video last year was more interesting.
Desmond Solomon but they've spoiled the winner which I do not like. I don't want to watch more after I know the winner.
Now, when do the cars under the 100k limit come up? lol
Acc0rd79 like the 718 cayman? It's literally 2nd place bruh
And the 1LE
So not exactly the car you have in your avatar, is it?
Check his profile, he owns one. Really nice guy IRL.
Im with you on this one. They should have the same competition, but with cars that cost less than 50 grand, no matter the year.
The 488 is such an amazing and beautiful beast. Simply a masterpiece.
I agree we just had one in our shop for new speakers this week. Amazing ride for sure.
Looks like every other ferrari ever made.
I was in one today loved it its sumething else. Unbelievable the way it goes around bends plus carbon ceramic La Ferrari brakes, the g forces where to the point that almost made me sick, big respect for the 488 gtb. What an amazing Beast love it
You guys did a really good job with the Best Driver's car competition when Johnny and Jason drove all the cars and explained how they did on the road last year. This year however, you guys barely spoke about or discussed how good the car was on a back road. It seems like this year it was mostly about lap time. I hope this great competition will be better next year.
worlds biggest drag race?
I remember a time when Ferraris sounded great!
NikesZ28 yeah it's tough to pick which sounds worse. The Cayman or 488 XD lol
812 Superfast?
They still do, you just have to go for the V12 ones. Also, compared to a lot of other muffled V8s (AMG) this still sounds pretty good.
Go to the V12 models
NikesZ28 i remember when they looked great to . The 488 is there only decent lookimg car now in my opinion. Used to love ferrari and everything they stood for . Now the only thing i like less than there cars are the company itself
Yes! Congrats Ferrari, you guys make the best cars and I love them
always a pleasure watchin' Randy at "work"
This Ferrari looks dope. I mean, hot as hell.
Yea I Ferraris are 🔥
Motor Trend, how about doing Best drivers car under $50,000?
The SS 1LE camaro would win that.
My Subaru Forester would win... .
love the engine/exhaust noise. Good job audio guys
You make awesome videos
Brakes aren't confidence inspiring... wins best drivers car. Ok whatever
Every other media has praised the brakes on these...
Don b yeah it's rigged
Bud Chronic yeah but no one was driving the car this fast. The brakes on the Ferrari are weaker than the ones on a Corvette grand sport.
Talal Siksek corvette is not better than a 458 or a 488 period
@@UncleIroh786 yeah it's totally rigged. Yet it won........
The 918 is the current recordholder at Laguna Seca?! Thought the Viper ACR beat it?
The ACR's record run wasn't done in Motor trend testing. They only list times they do.
Jayfigermany it did. Motortrend is playing dumb. Stay smart!
+JerseyMikeP They literally said "the current lap record holder at ...", so no, they don't only include motor trend times.
They ONLY Refer to the Lap times they do. They are delusional like the Nurburgring times claiming to be stock.
Here's the ACR lap Record video....Driven by Randy Pobst...the same driver in this video.
ruclips.net/video/pXP3Eij2GGA/видео.html
Here's the factory Laguna Sec record the OLD ACR ran.
ruclips.net/video/K_q93coTNmo/видео.html
New appreciation for Mr. Pobst's driving
I hope Motor Trend uploads one continuous show of all the test cars like previous years. With some off track footage of they have any.
i like horchata
yes
where the fuck Lamborghini huracan performante
Thats Hyper cars as a whole. They lean more towards the race car, less to the daily driver.
Shaun Conroy still the performante is the best track car
Shaun Conroy they're not for cheap fucks like you.
Waiting for EPA checks.
american engineering is so much better
Awesome! Thank you for getting Ferrari's back to BDC! How could that thing thing NOT win? Anyone that has driven the 458 knows that it was the best handling car in the world. The same was expected for the 488!
love u guys
Porsche 918 does not hold the lap record. The 2016 Dodge Viper ACR holds the record at 1:28.65
Finn.__.M That lap was done on trofeo r tires. Pretty sure those are street legal
Finn, The ACR was street legal...stock tires. when it did the 1:28.65 lap.
XMidnight....the ACR has Kumho V720 tires...not Trofeo Rs. The McLaren P1 had Trefeo R's when it set it's 3rd place lap.
JerseyMikeP I was going off of what info was provided on the website
What web site??? Only Kumho makes tires in the ACR viper's size.
Did Motor Trend forget the 2017 Ford GT came out this year?
person1367 track car =/= drivers car, the GT would basically have the same explanation as the 911 for its place, although maybe of lesser extent
Might have been hard to get for the test?
I mean but it's like saying why wasn't the new NSX in the running instead of some of the lower tier cars, well it would be explained similarly to the 911 and new GT. Though to a lesser extent. But I'm sure they could've gotten any car they wanted for this. I wonder if they will ever post like a top 100 list that they pick out cars from.
The NSX was already tested last year, 8th place. www.motortrend.com/awards/best-drivers-car/
person1367 they need the maker's approval. Probably Ford didnt want to compete. Dont just assume when you can only watch and comment.
loved this car
Had a good laugh at seeing the 4-ways/emergency flashers coming on during hard braking (notice the fender markers flashing at the corkscrew and final corners).
I seriously doubt that this car was on the same tires that you buy it at the dealer. Autocar wrote an article recently about how they're retracting their test times because the car was on Sport Cup 2 tires and not only are they not a dealer option, Ferrari themselves said they will not spec a car with those tires even if you ask. The car comes with Pilot Sport 4 S tires.
It wasn't...stock tires are super sports and this one was on sport cups.
JerseyMikeP well, there you go. Porsche did it too with the Turbo S, but at least they say that those tires are dealer available. Even if no one has ever bought them.
Typical Ferrari for you. What's new?
Willy Willy can you guarantee that 100%
Daniel PC/Xbox.....Just go to Ferrari USA's site and build a 488GTB.
There are NO tire options available and the 488GTB photos on Their webpage clearly show Michelin super sports.....NOT Sport cup tires.
Wait, you mean to tell me a Ferrari is better than a Miata? I call shenanigans.
i actually love the sound of this thing
Definitely felt like this year was really, really lacking in content. Used to have the hot laps but had the editor side as well and there were roundtable discussions at the finale and THEN we get the World's Greatest Drag Race. The old documentary format was way better and was what I looked forward all year from Motor Trend. Hope there's more content next year.
$365k? They are giving you all the car, but they want not half, not some, but ALL YOUR CASH!
I wanna see....
McLaren 720S vs Ford GT vs Porsche 911 GT2 RS vs Lamborghini Huracan Perfomante vs Corvette C7 ZR1
Who comes out on top???
GT2RS
Are you guys not bringing out a full episode of best driver's car like last year ?
I like the fact that the blinkers is always on whenever Randy doing hard braking and off again after accelerating
The 488 has received such bad press because the turbo's etc yet whenever it goes to a track everyone is astounded at it's chassis, it is almost witchcraft what Ferrari are doing these days. There's the whole 'you cant trust a Ferrari press car' bla bla .... grow up all of you and just enjoy the cars and the content. It's a great era for drivers cars and our days are numbered by tree huggers and bureaucrats so lets celebrate all these great cars while we can!
Maserati makes this engine sound great in the Quatroportte...I don't know how Ferrari make this engine sound so bad
TD Immanuel lol that's because Ferrari had their "press cars" that they give to the press for review
Exactly! But just imagine if this chassis had a carbon tub!
Judge Dredd
Get better headphone/speakers and wash your ears. Anyone who says this engine sounds bad is either deaf or dumb, or both. It's still one of the 5 best sounding engines on the planet. Just not THE best like the 458 was.
So MT's 2017 Best Drivers Car™ is......a 2015 car(2016 model year)?....So, from now on, has the "it needs to be a new car for the model year" policy been dumped, or should we consider this a one-off Ferrari privilege?
Well, the Porsche Turbo S has also been around for quite a while now. So has the DB11. Or the Alfa. Or the Cayman.
Brixxlnator The Turbo S has recently been facelifted(991.2), and the others are new for the American market.
Wait, the 570GT is actually an older(2016 model year) car as well.....This years competition is just a big fat mess.
I think it's actually a matter of what fast car can we get for free from manufacturers to test them in this week of the year? If McLaren doesn't have a 720s to send them, and Ferrari provides them with the 488, I think they take it and test it.
Ferrari is never gonna give a current year car to the press to draw numbers, this was just clickbait.
Props to Randy for putting on his turn signal heading into the corkscrew.
Wait, this is all we are getting this year for BDC? I used to look forward to every years hour+ long installment of all the latest and greatest in one spot
Wish the new M5 made it
I am waiting for World Greatest Drag Race 7 but also add lamborghini huracan so both three rivals place on the single track ferrari 488 gtb vs mclaren 570gt and lamborghini huracan
No Lambo's, Dodges, Ford or audis this year.
WASIQ MAHMOOD lamborghini huracan perfomante
The rival of the 488 GTB is the 650S..
Nails it by huge margin! May be you should do one for cars of different price level: say best under $50k, best if money is no bar (hyper cars) etc.
They finally had the balls to bring motor trend a damn Ferrari.
Shouldn't trust any car contest that Ferrari is in it..
Press car
a company full of liars
I still think the 911 is the best car. It's nice on the track, awesome for a weekend travel and still very stylish.
bbb12345 shame it won BDC twice in a row so they weren't going to let that happen a third time.
it's the best car but with the shittiest sound
Makes sense.
Yeah, but it's still good for a car that is made to use any day of the week.
Kline exhaust will fix that right up for you. There's examples on RUclips.
Ima go out and buy one right now!
I liked this series.
I agree with Randy, hard to shift with those stationary paddles while deep cornering
lets be honest, the people that can afford these cars are not sitting at home watching motor trend youtube videos.
you would be susprised
I have a McLaren and a Porsche and I watch these videos.
@@nocturnus2494 i have a 720s and a lamborghini
Oh really..?
Good job mr jones
Is there a full feature video coming? Or just hotlaps this year?
Dude... do your fucking homework... the Viper ACR holds the lap record at Laguna Seca, 918 is second not the other way around
Paul Jeitler yeah, it's like they forget, and unlike the other tracks the vipers laguna seca lap was actually set by randy as opposed to someone else.
They don't list it...as it was done NOT by Motor trend...but by Randy driving for SRT/Dodge. They only list times Randy did when working for MT. Smoke and mirrors like the fake times at the RING for most cars.
They don't show the track record lap the last ACR did either...when driven by the SRT engineer. OLD 600hp ACR did a 1:33.92 lap....but didn't have traction control.
kk - didn't know that
So complains the brakes take too much effort, Steering takes too much effort, Can't change gear with the paddles and has to use stability control yet it is the best drivers car.......
I was shaking my head as well.
I was confused about this as well. The professional motorsports driver, Randy, and therefore the most skilled among them found a bit of difficulty or issue with the brakes, had trouble with the steering and the changing of gears and had to compensate by totally changing his driving style. And yet it is the best DRIVER"S car.
Bring back the last ten years best cars and compared them see which one wins.
*the two cars that had the most controversy* got first and second place haha. Lots of fans still wished and rather 488 and 718 be a v12 and flat 6 than turbo charging despite having less performance and torque. Those natural aspirated engines just sounds insane and so emotional.
*YAWN* Predictable as the tides. MotorTrend staff are suckers for Ferrari. As soon as I saw the lineup of cars this year, I knew immediately what the top 3 were going to be.
Suckers for ferrari? Do you not have any brain cells? Did you read their review on the f12?
F12 is not a performance car. When Ferrari agrees to send cars for performance tests, they send cars like the 458 and 488 -- and their press cars are always tuned way beyond their stock performance.
Adeum Deus
It is a performance car..
Someone needs to explain this to me. From reading the articles to watching the videos, I get the impression the Turbo S should be the BDC, and the 488 should be somewhere 2 to 4. How?
The Turbo S is not a drivers car. Its just a numbers car. It's very fast and very well engineered but doesn't give the driver much feedback. You cant spec it with a manual, you have electric steering, AWD and it sounds like a vacuum cleaner. Not what you want in a drivers car.
It does not sound like a vacuum cleaner at all. Have you actually heard it at full chat? Its loud af.
Absolutely. Porsche 911 does what the ferrari does only a little bit better and does it at all times and in all seasons. It costs considerably less and is of higher quality. Porsche makes a 500hp Gt3 for people who like RWD and more track focused machine. I sometimes dont know what these people are talking about. Salomondrin recently ran a ferrari 488 against huracan and 675LT and the times were dangerously close. This ferrari can not possibly be faster than a 911 turbo on laguna seca. Porsche puts its power down much better than the ferrari.
It definitely sounds like a vacuum cleaner. It doesn't matter how loud it is (not loud at all compared to other cars in its class) Theres no emotion from that sound. No 911 howl which made the car legendary in the first place.
The Miata was probably the only manual car in this competition, so I guess it's the real driver's car, right?
Just wait till the Ferrari 488 GTO comes out!!
Now for the mass drag race
488 is really underrated. Everyone shit on it because of the sound, but that's only because it had to live up to the 458 (which is a very difficult task)
LamboPlays i know right.. they talk and make you feel like they can afford it😑
458 Italia's Lap here was SLOW....Not impressive at all.
So the Porsche 911 Turbo S is better at everything but the Ferrari wins because its faster?
I don't get it.
And now we need the 488 GTB vs. Huracan Performante vs. 720S comparison test. Bring it on!
Even though it's turbo-charged, I enjoy the exhaust note a lot more than the naturally-aspirated 458Italian.
I kind of feel without a Huracan Performante and a McLaren 720S to name a few, this whole thing was kind of pointless. Also you can never really trust a Ferrari press car so there's that.
agreed !
they did have an Amg GT R, it placed fifth
venom5809 it did 1,33 for a couple of laps than ferrari took I to garage ,did some sorcery and after that it did 1,31... so there goes that.
+karlmalone11, oh yeah, I forgot, they broke this stupid test up into so many videos and days I lost track of the cars. lol
You can never trust any Italian car company period maybe except from pagani.
AMG GTR is the real winner here i guess.
not really that car is 200k
The sound this Ferrari makes, Waouh!
Are they still doing the drag race with alot of cars ??
No GT2 RS, no Ford GT, no ACR (for one last time), No Huracan or 720S or Aventador S or GT350R or Z06 (8SPD).
dobbins2550 they need to set this up but bring the new zr1 instead
iluvcakes19 that's not out yet
Did Ferrari send a fleet of their engineers and mechanics to tune the car to be perfect for that racetrack, just like they do it for any other review or competition? I bet they did, and I bet Porsche, Mercedes, or GM didn't.
Yeah they did. On the Motor Trend website Ferrari set a lap time then whilst waiting for the Nismo to arrive, Ferrari asked (among other manufacturers) to tune the car and set another lap time. They improved by over a second which raised some suspicions that they did a bit more than what they said. Motor Trend have already named it the winner of the 2017 Best Driver's Car.
old meme
All cars were sent by the manufacturers. Some had technical support on the track, in order to achieve the perfect lap. I don't see anything wrong here. The Nismo had to be sent to a local dealer to be fixed by a "fleet of engineers" though.
Except that Ferrari won't allow you to do an independent test if you don't let them tune the car for the track. If you do get a Ferrari without their permission and test it on your own, not only you can get blacklisted from Ferrari, the owner of the car that lent it to you will also be barred from purchasing any more Ferraris from their official dealers.
Yeah, it shows that they really care.
The other manufacturers are free to send their technicians also. i say it is complacency on their side. Why always call foul on Ferrari? They have every right to protect their interest, if rivals dont like it they can send their techs or shut up!
Correction: the current lap record holder at Laguna Seca is the Viper ACR, NOT the 918. The ACR ran a 1:28.65, the 918 ran a 1:29.89. Enough with the fake news 🇺🇸🐍
Would have been good if they did a proper episode with the top three cars and they had their usual arguments about the pros and cons before choosing a winner.
I'm sorry but this year's best drivers car was absolutely rubbish. 488 isn't even new, it came out a couple years ago so where was it last year?
Armin Gilani Ferrari didn't provide it
They aren't all super cars though? I don't get it... why would you have a Ferrari 488 against any of these cars.. it's not really a fair match up. And also what's the point of the Mazda
Alex Lesiw
That's not the point..
It's best DRIVERS car. Not fastest car around a track
Ok I’m convinced it handles better than my 07 Prius
Now that this is done. Its on to the drag race.
Ferrari tuned this specifically to set a faster lap time? Man love their cars but that kind of behavior is just not fair to other manufactures
Bullshit
This is the First Street model that DOES perform well on the track. As for not fair...it costs alot more than most cars MT tested here...so it shoudl do Well.
It's not the fastest, actually down in 4th place in lap times, Only 1.32 sec faster than the AMG GT R/ 1.37s faster than the Z06.
This 488GTB is still 3.03 sec SLOWER than the ACR Viper. I have NO doubt the Lambo performante will beat the 488 GTB on this track...Once MT testes it here.
For price then I think they should've brought in the 675 lt or atleast the 650s since they are direct competitors. I agree with you that it should be faster, but don't think it should be that much faster than the 2nd place car
Jasolonius What a troll you love Ferrari cars ha ? LOL
Were the customer cars that set faster acceleration times than what the press cars did also "tuned specifically to set a faster time"?
This press car bullshit is so tiresome.. Get a tinfoil hat people.
Am I the only one that thinks the "Best Driver's Car" should be a car that's actually attainable by more than 0.1% of drivers.
Then it would be best (affordable) drivers car. A worthwhile but different category to judge.
You're not the only one. The Miata (and maybe the Camaro), are the only two cars most of us could afford. Price should play a factor into the best drivers car.
Yeah. I appreciated the inclusion of the Miata and camaro (even if most people will only be able to afford the SS 1le), but the next most attainable car is the freaking corvette and cayman. The hell man. I liked the runners up for last year because at least we can afford those ones, or at least the 86, RS, fiata, and v6 camaro.
I think subjective rating independent of price is super important. I want to know exactly how each car feels and which people enjoy more. It's super easy to judge the valve myself based on the results and the prices. It's not like there is really anything at stake with finishing order, it's just a ranking. Who cares if expensive cars win, I expect them to win, they cost more. I want to know if they are worth it because often they are not. The fact that the 718 came in second is a good example of highlighting just how good that car is even compared to more expensive and more powerful options. Now if only it sounded better.
But this is just the best. Not the best under some monetary value. They could always do that but I think that would lack a lot of luster.
I can listen to Randy talk about driving all day.
so when is the actual video coming out
Press car
750hp
the p1 in the head 2 head is also a press car
Literally some thin plastic bodywork draped across Vettel's F1 car.
everybody grab your tinfoil hat
Jatin Sharma Do you have any sort of proof or are you only guessing? I'm sure you're just guessing, so fuck off until you have proof to back up your bullshit claims.
I am so sorry, but it seems that Motor Trend got very happy because Ferrari decided to lend them a 488 so they rewarded them with the best car of the year award. It just so happens that in Car a Driver Lightning lap the AMG is a second faster over a longer lap, so I'd imagine that Ferrari mechanics were all over the 488 until the squeezed that lap time!
same thoughts here
Car & driver doesn't use a Professional driver...so the time difference is the lack of skill in the driver...NOT the car.
What you are really saying is that if you aren't a great driver...you'd be faster in the AMG.
Well these are two completely different tracks.
Even though I believe that they do use a professional driver. What do you make of Nurburgring times, where AMG is 11 seconds quicker! And almost forgot, if they don’t use a professional driver, than is the same driver for both cars, in it?!
When the times are ran by magazines/independently tested at the RING...then they will matter. Almost every manufacturer that runs their is cheating. And the proof is when a car is ONLY fast there and Sucks everywhere else (Nissan GT-R is a Great example).
The ring favors cars the are quick accelerating...allows them to make up for less than Ideal handling. Also USA spec. cars are very different from euro spec cars.
People that are so HOOKED UP on Nurburgring times(don't live in the USA) should be on a German/UK car magazine site and NOT Motor trend. Motor trend only tested showroom stock/USA Spec cars.Sport auto was the only magazine I've heard of testing there.
The Nismo GT-R is slower than ANY Model Viper and slower than the ZL-1 1LE in STOCK USA spec. which is just sad.
Mosey down to comments section to see all the haters who haven't even sat in one never mind driven one, spout all kinds of rubbish about stats and engine noise! Drive it, fall in love with it and realise why Ferrari are still on top of their game. It sounds great, goes like a rocket ship, smells boss, looks boss & no brand grabs the attention, has the presence or has the esteem of Ferrari other than maybe Bugatti!
most beautiful supercar in my opinion. and i used to be a lambo guy
Ferrari haters are about. to bad the 488 that Solomondrin had tested was right with the 675LT which is 400lbs lighter and makes more HP. also both where customer cars on the same tire. plus this car has been out for 2 years. get over it losers Ferrari won
Stop showing clips of cutting double yellows on public roads. That shit is not cool.
The roads were closed to the public during the shoot
the 16 year olds watching this dont know that. then they kill a biker......
The judging this year was good.
So is there going to be a video with everyone talking about all of the cars?
Wait so Randy said this car is your mistress and you should marry the Porsche 718.
So Randy basically said the Porsche is better . . . ?
Vegaspsycho would you have your mistress cook your dinner, to go with you on vacarion to meet family or expect it to be $260.000 cheaper?
There is always a stretch in cpmparing those cars, but the people who can afford the ferrari wont bother to buy the 718 as well
Vegaspsycho the mistress is the one that excite you
Just remember, the mistress is the one you do things with that you will not do with your wife.
Vegaspsycho - No, that's not quite what he said. He said the Porsche is the one your mother would like, but the Ferrari is the one you watch your friends around...
put 660 horses into your cayman and the italian mistress looks like a shabby mattress
Not valid! 2016 model!
hans batter awwwww merc fan ):
No I think we all expected to see the Huracan Performante and the Mc Laren 720s
hans batter both weren’t out during time of filming, apparently
hans batter perfomante is a limited edition boi
Shahid Rifai no it's not
Damn straight! Ferrari doing their thing. Bravo Ferrari!
911 gt2rs , 720s , huracan perfomante are the main competition for 488. Next year will be awesome with all these cars pushing limits into hypercar world.
Are you kidding me, this is the car with the number one laptop time? You can't trust a Ferrari review or lap times because they control those stuff and don't like their cars coming in anything but 1st place. Kinda makes no sense that this is first place because the 488 is a full 11 seconds slower than the AMG Gt-R in the Nurburgring. Where's the Lamborghini performante or the Mclaren 720s?
Yawn... first of all, it has been different drivers. 2nd of all, it has been 10,08 seconds, not a "full 11 seconds". Third of all, Nurburgring is different to Laguna Seca. Viper ACR holds the record at Laguna Seca, being over a second faster (1:28,65) than the Porsche 918 (1:29,89) yet it went 7:01,30 on the Nordschleife. Porsche 918 did it at 6:57.
Why? Because its a different track, and a different driver.
1. Who do you think should be the fastest?
2. The Lamborghini and McLaren are supposed to be 2018 models, so they'll probably appear next year.
welp eve just confirmed the tires they send to the car to test with aren't available on customer 488 gtb's so why send a prepped car to test. Oh thats right it's so they can guarantee a win?
Andrice Parker, i know it would help you sleep at night if you think the 488 was on racing slicks when it won. Wrong bud, even if they arent customer available tyres, they are MPSC2, the tyre the Turbo S, GT3RS, AMG GT-R all use. So before you call foul, just ask yourself why the german cars are all on semi slicks first.
Danielson Gomes, you mean the sport auto test? The same sport auto that have a bias beyond belief towards German cars? The same sport auto that put the turbo s as faster than the 488 even though the fezza is faster on every track? Its german bias bro. You cant trust em
365k? Yes it's a Ferrari but uh... Umm.... no. My god. I'd rather own multiple cars then just one expensive one. And needless to say... The overpriced service and depreciation in the first 3 years... for a "special car" is heartbreaking. Forget the badging and history, etc. Just look at the car itself for what it is.
Digital Car Addict yeah, id be happy with a Camaro or a Porsche or something so i can still pay my rent XD
Not hating on your opinion, but you need to understand 1 thing. The people who buy these cars have "unlimited" money, so the multiple cars vs this ferrari isn't really an issue to them as they will already own multiple cars. The ferrari would be to them merely "just another car"
People who can afford supercars dont worry about the the service cost and gas mileage, and if you buy a unlimited production supercar and expect it to not depreciate its value, you are unfamiliar with how things work. And also in general, if you have to calculate the money you will spend on your car, you dont have enough money to own it. Simple.
What depreciation? Get a Spider and they're still all going over book. Go for a Cali T or something then yea you're gonna lose about 30 - 50k in the first year if you buy brand new. Service costs are included in a service pack & there's 7 years warranty on them... so actually the maintenance costs are pretty much the same as any other car sports car.
No they don't, I know a quite a few people that have worked real hard & got to a point in life and said "bucket list", they've saved and they buy the car they want. Yes they may have multiple cars in the sense that they have a daily or something but they certainly don't have "unlimited" money and it's certainly not a case of just another car. In most cases it's their absolute pride and joy. They drive them and they love them. Yes there's always the tools that have more money than sense i.e I once heard a guy - after he over took three cars and smashed all their windscreens and then his got smashed by someone else (roads weren't best quality), people were absolutely fuming as you can imagine - he goes oh I don't know what you're bothered about, I'll just get a new one in summer. He drove a Lambo Avio. He's the kind of toxic super car driver but in reality if you speak to most of the guys, they're pretty humble about it and they big big car guys that have finally got to where they wanna be in life!
nice car it looks cool :D
Actually, the Viper ACR has the lap record at 1:28.65. The PREVIOUS lap record holder was the 918 Spyder.
