For the cost of the Ferrari, you can buy virtually ANY lesser car at full retail and use the difference in price to build it up to annihilate the Ferrari. You're paying up the butt for the name branding. So in any case, I would take the "other" car plus the cash. Why, because it'd be fun as hell to pull up to your Modena at a light in my '88 Daihatsu Charade and put it to shame in front of your girl.

But in reality my car of choice would be either a Chevy Z06 or BMW M3 with $90k in change. Maintanence, parts, labor, taxes, and insurance costs would all be lower than the 360 too.

I totally agree...performance wise. But who's the girl going to WANT to ride with? The guy in the Charade or Modena?

This is the same 'ol "I can take a $500 nova and smoke your vette" conversation, with the same outcome. The guys will enjoy watching the nova win, whereas the women will still be riding in the vette.

But yes, I would take the supra and the cash...heh

If I had to spend the extra money on the supra I would rather just go with the Ferrari. I mean how much could you do to a supra for 150k??? You would run out of stuff to do I'm sure.

Plus its a FERRARI
