Because that might be the ONLY way you can get a GT-R and other limited cars if you really want one.

The only good price is a price you're willing to pay. For some, $90k will be a good price on a new GT-R.

 

Try really, really, really expensive for the Ferrari.

Now the GT-R is gonna be an awesome car with amazing dynamics and track capability.

The Ferrari will always say "true baller" though and have the ultimate 'wow' factor.

 

Jay, you're probably gonna have to sell the BMW 650 to keep up with the ferrari's maintenance

 

depend on what you use the car for.. if you want a weekend car that look flashy and be able to show off to your friends, sit at yoru garage on week day and do nothing go for the 360.. if you want a everyday driver with lots of gadget and can take it to the track on weekend go for the GT-R. But before you get all excited about the 100k 360 they are VERY VERY SLOW.. They do have the look and sound mean but man the performace doesn't match up for it. Also maintance is expensive, I know someone work at a Ferrari dealer and he doens't have much good stuff to say about the maintance either.. And 100k won't get you a nice low millege 360 probably higher millege grey market not a US car... if 100k is really your budget to spend on a 360 you might want to look else where..

 

20k markup? are you serious? i hope nissan doesnt sell any with that kind of price jacking

 

youre looking for a skyline or a ferrari.
forgive me if im wrong but it sounds like you're not really interested in either car. youre just looking for something unique.

you could also throw maserati in the mix.

but anyway if you have the ability to work on the car yourself or have the conections (ie know a shop) to do so i think id go with the 360 being you

 

i would expect several gt-rs to go for $100k... esp if msrp is over $70k

 

All aside...he'll have both...only a matter of time.

 

Might as well throw in an Audi R8 as well. That is the car that I would get in that price range

 

If you want a lot of headache and sex go with 360.

 

GT-R without a doubt.

Since your in CA finding one without a markup will be tough. I know you have different regulations but what about buying one out of state? I am sure you will be able to find a better deal than $20k over somewhere.

 

OK, I have a question. I remember seeing a program on Discovery or History channel about the Ferrari manufacturing process. It was very impressive as to the quality of both the materials and the workmanship that goes into the vehicle.

Now I did read somewhere that oil for this car is $60 per quart, so oil changes are expensive, but assuming you don't race the car on the track, why is maintenance so expensive for this car?

 

Definitely the Ferrari 360. The design is timeless.

some guy: wow, nice Ferrari.
you: thanks

some guy: what kind of car is that?
you: its a Nissan GTR
some guy: oh...

 

I'm pretty curious myself as how much an average maintenance for the Ferrari would be. I mean, if you can afford to buy a $90k-$100k car, maintenance shouldn't be much of a worry for you or else the car might not be exactly right for your current financial status.

I heard that Lambo's take $10k to maintain a year. I'm not exactly sure how it equates to that but is it about the same for this Particular Ferrari?

 

GTR reminds me of NSX back in 91'....remember how they marked up their MSRP ?? Most likely I shoot for GTR .... if it's outrages with mark up $$, then I wait for few more months, howz that sound ??

Ferrari is FERRARI ..... UNIQUE and classic !! I'd have to sell my 650, M5 and pull out my credit line to get the 15,000 miles service done !! ok... not that much but... get the point !

This going to be my "weekend" ride, seldomly on weekdays.... I would say 5000miles per year.
