Default Buyers remorse?

A friend of mine took this in Sydney the other day.

I bet it's a prank from a Ferrrarista with a sense of humor.

Assuming someone else did this....... there is an *** whipping coming. Not for the subject matter.....more for the lesson of "don't mess with other folks property".

This. I'd be ballistic if I discovered someone had stuck a sticker directly onto my painted bumper.

hope its magnetic, everyones a Ferrari fan until you own one? well you never really own a Ferrari you maintain it for the next owner.

Example
purchase a 360 Modena 60-90k- if you get lucky it has the gated 6 speed )which will go up in value.

3 year ownership cost is around 30k- figure close to 1k a month for a car your not really gonna drive.
figure maintance 8k belt service, occasional tranny issue or electric gremelin,

maybe your gonna put a real exhust like the Kressigg or Tubi valvleless at 5k plus installation.
maybe buy the scanner for it 3k.

then 3 years later you turn around and sell it for what you paid.

Ferraris are nice to look at in the garage it kicks *** standing still.

I like to drive though

2004 Modena Spyder - Gated 6 speed. Yellow/Scuderia shields/Daytona Seats/Challenge Grill
Less than 3600 miles.
Was in the shop constantly....... One of the worst ownership experiences I have ever had.
Sell for what you paid........? depends on the model, the economy and the mileage.

If you want a garage queen........they are certainly that.
