Yup. I agree. RS shouldn't pass 300k mark.
Rather buy a Ferrari

 

$1M houses (in 2016) in my area now sell for $2M. Even milk is 50% more expensive. RS is no different.

Ferrari is a $500k car when new.

 

Ferrari to me is Sterile. Having drove an 812 Superfast it's ok. Beyond that just no lure to me personally. The SF90 was over played and the market spoke on it. The 812 Comp looks decent, but beyond that it's still an 812. The SP3 while most seek it and will offer alter sacrifices for it, to me is just one of those "tried too hard" kinda cars. Plus the rear end design kills the entire car.

Irony is the 812 I drove was traded in towards a GT40 and the owner already had a Touring. Soft spots for manuals I suppose.

 

By that point, a Ferrari will be at least 400k for the price of entry on a "hairdresser" model.

 

yes
the price went up by 40 % , so that is ok
but adding 100 K + ADM which it seems has become the norm is what makes the 3 RS over priced
I will take one at MSRP
unfortunately , during the Covid epidemic , more dealers shifted to ADM and my dealer is one of them

 

What competes with a 3RS at $330-350k? The only car that comes to mind in that ballpark that would be fun is the 750S. Beyond that I don't know of any competition. I love Ferrari and not a single current one excites me.

 

STO and AMG Black Series are also pretty cool

 

The Dodge Viper engineering team was recruited to assist AMG on the GT black series design... just saying.... lol.

STO was cool at first, then everyone and their cousin had one which in my book is automotive spam. Also a car the market spoke out on being to saturated. Frankly many specs were goofy as hell and the decals option was so out of place it was just a site to be avoided.

Both do have that cool factor for sure though as it's hard to turn away a good wing.

 

Are they still making the black series? I don't pay attention to MB, never been a fan. STO is cool but I'm also not a Lambo guy so not on my radar.

For those that like Lambo, is the STO cross-shopped with a 3RS?

 

Yeah then buy a used for $100k off sticker.

 

I’m simply stating why the price of the car is what it is. I dont have a problem with it. I actually think at $241k msrp, its a steal vs competition given the laptimes this thing provides. Ford’s mustang GTD starts $90k higher.

 

Does anyone have a confirmed build date in Q4 yet? I heard from the dealers they will build through Dec and delivery in 2025 Q1 to finish the .1 production. Some RS just got pushed from summer to fall which triggered a 2025 MY….

 

I have stores that have September and November build allocations.

 

Mine has been delayed since last Fall. Have not left first step. Not even locked in. If lucky maybe see it this Fall. Fortunately there are other toys.

 

Just got a September allocation, awaiting confirmation because PTS.
