what do you mean guarantee?

Like a 3year/60,000mile warranty against defective parts or failure of parts

In fact, i guess 3yr/60k miles is fairly regular now, and i guess ferrari operate with this procedure :D

That's what they are counting on.

The cars are so highly tuned that extended use can very easily lead to parts requiring warrant replacement.

Ferraris - greta to look at - but questionable reliability.. ;) :P - Think of them as VERY expensive Fiat... :twisted:

Pretty low - I think around 10 - 18 mpg depending on the model.

No question about it ... Ferraris are expensive mistresses that require a lot of dough to keep happy.

Parts and servicing is expensive as hell - goes into 4 figures...

You can buy a 308 series car for $25 - 32K and 328 series car for $40-50K in the US. Need to budget another $10K for parts and servicing.

There is nothing worse than a man spends all his money to buy a Ferrari and have no money to spend on maintenance. There are quite a few poorly maintained cars like that are an incredible drain on the resources of the next buyer who will be faced with multiple repairs to be effected immediately. Anytime you buy a used Ferrari you need to spend some money on a pre-inspection - it is worth its weight in gold.

Also the fact that quite a few Ferraris are garage queens - not used very regularly leads to potential issues with cracked pipes, radiator corrosion , etc...

But if you have the money and are willing to step up to the plate .. there would be no greater joy in the automotive realm... :D
