Seriously, why do people buy six figure sports/super cars? They seem like a colossal waste of money and a pain in the ass no matter what way you look at it.

Other than the money related issues, how does any of the other things I mentioned have to do with your income? Low IQ detected.

Ferrari's are moving art. They are a rich person's way of displaying status to working people. It's also guaranteed to attract women.

They get driven once a month, and that's it. Besides as long as it is maintained, the owner can sell it, and probably at worst take a 20% loss.

Imagine your sense of self worth being based on how much money you have. Most rich people are pathetic.

Perhaps the most difficult thing about this is the fact that most businesses out there will give you a better treatment if you appear to be wealthy; society is unironically rotten to the core.

A tiny handful of autist enthusiasts buy these sorts of cars and actually drive them because they like cars. The vast majority of six fig sports cars are bought by richfags so they can show other richfags that they are in fact richfags. I live in LA and whenever you go through Beverly Hills you can see tons of them being driven 5 miles in bumper to bumper traffic.

The worst part is the only people who can afford these are geriatric retards who would have a heart attack if they pushed the car to its limits. All that elite engineering and manufacturing gone to waste on a dumbass with more money than sense. It will never be fully appreciated for the work of art that it is.

I worked at a Ferrari shop for a few years. There's a few types of customers
1. Aspirational - people who dreamed of owning one their whole life. Most of these customers end up with something like a 355/Testarossa (during my time these were $50k for one with some miles on it), these days something like a 430. There's also ones from past generations that bought things like Mondials and 308s in the 90s. These people spend a lot of their money on them and don't always drive them because they can't afford to lose them.
2. People with sketchy finances. Some people buy them because they are a way to move money around and hold money in a somewhat safe harbor. This could be any model. Had multiple customers end up in jail for fraud while their car was at the shop.
3. Old rich guy. This is 90% of Ferrari owners. Almost all of them own more than one. A lot of owning one of these cars is the networking value, going on drives and to meets you meet a lot of other wealthy folks. There's just not that much to spend money on at a certain point - you can have the nicest house in (US city), ranch in Montana, Hawaii house, south of France house, boat, etc. for $100 mil all in. Plenty of people have a lot more money than that though, may as well buy something cool.
