And that my friends is how I intend on purchasing my 360! :wink: :green:Stradale said:I agree with Tony. the more deliveries of 430 to the 360 owners the more of the 360 will be on the market and obviously cheaper too.
The 360 CS will not take a big hit like the regular 360s. Remember the 360 CS was also a low production car. Of all the 360s the CS will always be more and eventually significantly more. At least that is my gut feeling.FunkyJunc said:Its a shame we have to wait till the f430 CS comes out for the 360 CS to depreciate. Thats how Ill buy MY 360![]()
I couldn't agree more. I would hold on to anything pre 1998. While the marquee will become less exclusive the rare models will still be just that, rare.tonyh said:Interesting thread. My personal view is that in 5 years time , 355s will be changing hands for more than 360s. There were 9,000 355s made vs 17,500 360s. Chances are there will be 20,000 430s made and the bubble will burst on over list prices when supply comes through. The days of exclusivity of marque are long gone.
I think this is an interesting point. Perhaps the pre-98s will then tenaciously hold their value.Enzo250GTO said:...I would hold on to anything pre 1998. While the marquee will become less exclusive the rare models will still be just that, rare.

OK, then in "investment terms" it would be better to buy a 550 rather than a 360, isn't it ? (although they are quite different cars)Enzo250GTO said:I couldn't agree more.

Well I can't say daily. But I'm from Calgary, less than 1 million people and I see a 430 every fews days and 360's almost everyday. However, I have only ever seen one 355, black spider. And I usually only see it once in a blue moon. 308's and 328's quite often but not as much as 360's still. That's all pretty good considering the nearest Ferrari dealership is 1200km away.Botto said:I think they are still very rare cars, I mean come on, how many 430s and 360s do you see daily on your commute to work? lol
I thought the maintenance costs were pretty much the same for a 360 and a 550. Cambelts change is even cheaper on a 550.Boxer said:IMHO, the 360 will bottom out around GBP 40k in a few years. The F355 has already dropped in price to around GBP 35k and I don't think will go much lower. Early 550's can be found in the low GBP 40k already and may drop further. Despite the lower production numbers, but given the much higher maintenance costs, longer term demand on the 550 will likely always be less than the 360. This might actually result in lower prices for the 12 cylinder model.
