>my dream car the ferrari 550 prices are skyrocketing because the ferrari beancounters pumpfaked the manual 12 cillindri (it's still a dct). People are starting to come to terms with the reality that the 550 is the last general production manual v12 ferrari.what do i do
>>29035543Buy it, they will never make classy cars, especially v12s with manuals, again it's all riced out arabian oil people cars with slushboxes.
>>29035543Worse performance than a model 3
>>29035545....wtf is a model 3?
>>29035547The Tesla Model 3 is a battery electric powered mid-size sedan with a fastback body style built by Tesla, Inc., introduced in 2017.
>>29035544i dont have 200k
>>29035548You have to say Tesla nobody knows what the fuck a model 3 is kek, anyway. >>29035543Yea dude v12 manuals are never happening again this a great time to buy.
>>29035543>>my dream car the ferrari 550 prices are skyrocketingNothing new for me
>>29035562i fucking hate supra, because of it and the 2jz meme the lexuses is300 are unreasonably expensive
>>29035549Most people never attain their dreams. I always wanted to drive a RWD car but that's probably never going to happen either. Just be happy with your shitbox.
>>29035573just get a clapped out e46
>>29035549Sucks to be poor
>>29035543Damn that's a good looking car. Dunno about the hood vent if it'd look better with a smooth bonnet, but it's a beautiful car nonetheless.
>>29035576>just get a clapped out e46Oh yeah, sure. I'll just drop 5 times what my current car is worth on a German saloon that will spend half its time with the local mechanics. Along with double the road tax and a raping by the insurance companies. If you can't tell, I'm a europoor, so for the foreseeable future, I'll stick with my FWD hatchback.
>>29035590>that will spend half its time with the local mechanicsNo one is forcing you to leave it at the mechanic
>>29035591>No one is forcing you to leave it at the mechanicYou expect my dumbass to work on pic related, every time it breaks down. I'm scraping by keeping my 22 year old Clio alive. Again, I'm poor and I don't own a garage. If my Dad can't help me fix something, I'll just have to bend over and take it from the mechanic. Investing in a beemer just isn't realistic.
>>29035593It's not going to be any worse than said 22 year old clio.
>>29035595Now we really know you’re trolling.
>>29035590unless you live in moldova ion believe that you cannot afford a beater to have some fun with, do you have a job?
>>29035597I live in the UK and been unemployed for 3 years. Trying to get on disability because I found out recently I'm autistic and have ADHD. I was also born with a club foot that prevents me from doing a lot of standing around work.
>>29035599damn, sorry brogood luck
>>29035601
>>29035596A clapped out shitbox is a clapped out shitbox no matter the nationality.
>>29035543Just get a Ferrari Roma.
>>29035549Get a more realistic dream car instead
>>29035675>Just dream low or don't have any dreams bro
>>29035687>im 12 and retardedBeats crying like a bitch about not being able to afford your stupid dream. Then again you unironically say bro so you can't be too smart.
>>29035604NTA but as a wrenchlet I'd assume that the consumables for a Renault Clio are cheaper than for a UDM
>>29035689>Then again you unironically say broI didn't.
>>29035693You just did. Ferrari is a luxury product for rich boomers with erectile dysfunction. Just get a BMW, Audi or if you can afford a Porsche (you probably don't)
>>29035694You seem to be unable to comprehend irony, which I used in my previous post. No worries, you'll understand the finer intricacies of online shitposting someday, maybe.
>>29035698Ok but my advice still stands.
>>29035698
>>29035702You're not even pretending to be retarded, you just are.
>>29035703ESL-kun...
>>29035543>what do i doGet a job>b-but my job doesn't pay enoughThen either change job or shut up.
>>29035543Me too, do as we all do; cry until you make £1m in liquid cash.
>>29035543this shitter was the Ferrari nobody wanted a few years back. they were almost cheap.
>>29035543Settle for her older sister that's every bit as sexy but a whole lot less desirable (for now).
>>29036008don't like the pop ups. it looks too 90s all around. kind of has that shitting dog arch on its back, too. not nearly as attractive.
>>29035543Sell feet pics and snag one before they become unobtainium.
>>29035599>I live in the UKyou said rwd, here's an rwd car you can probably get in the uk for cheap(you didn't say it has to be good)
>>29036019>don't like the pop ups.faaaaaaaaaaaaag
>>29036019>it looks too 90s all aroundanon when do you think 550 was released?compare it to 456 and 612, which one does it look closer to?
>>29036030popups on a ferrari just looks shitbox tier. they're great on japanese cars, but not on european exotics.
>>29035573>>29035599Just buy a F20 bimmer.https://europremiumparts.com/en-gb/blogs/bmw-buying-guides/bmw-1-series-f20-reliability-guide-everything-you-need-to-know-before-buyingI'm on Autotrader, a lot seem to be going between 5k-8k. I don't know much about them, I'm a Ford guy, but it was the last RWD hatch.
>>29036034the 550 looks like a product of the 2000s. it was ahead of its time. the popups badly dates the car you posted. the 612 isn't attractive, either. but at least it's not as bad as the 456.
>>29036023Getting scarce.
>>29036035>>29036040this is the only front engine ferrari that even comes close to the 550 in styling. the 599 GTO is, engineering-wise, the greatest front engine Ferrari ever produced, and still the fastest to this very day. It immediately out-did the enzo everyone thought was Ferrari's peak.
>>29036040no, 550 looks like a leftover of the 90s, because it is one. it's not a bad thing, but it's decidedly not "ahead of its time", it's more of a "last of its kind", just like 355 is the last wedge before 360 got a smooth 00s design.
>>29036048the 550 isn't smooth at all around the face or rear. that is why it looks newer than it is. it is actually quite squared off, and aged better because of it. it doesn't look like a soap bar or invoke the image of an FD Rx7/C5 Corvette.
>>29035991late 90s-early 00s Ferraris are on the up550s, 360s, 430s are all increasing in value when no one wanted them a few years ago599 GTBs were cheaper than 550s last time I checked, even though the 599 is light years ahead in terms of performance >>29036045
>>29035597I live in Finland and can attest that nobody can afford anything, the used cars market is abysmal and all the fun cars have been driven to their graves long ago, unless you want to pay an absurd sum and/or are a mechanic yourself, that is. Labor is expensive as fuck, everything nice and extra is expensive as fuck.
>>29036045basedi use a white 599 gto as my desktop
>>29035545Worse performance than a 2007 GSX-R 1000 for $5k. Nobody cares, bro. There are some things you can't get with just a fast vehicle, and the 550 is one of the best offerings.
>>29036008I am extremely tempted by these but they're supposedly much less reliable. Also it's a 4 seater and still around 120k for a decent one without a ridiculous number of miles.
>>29036045god it looks insane.imagine if it didn't come with a shitbox f1 trans.
>>29035543Just accept the fact that unless you settle for the shitty ones, Ferraris will forever be for arabs, chinks and rental companies
>>29036098>Labor is expensive as fuckEi täällä kukaan osaa korjata autoja.Purkamot ei ees pura autoja enään, ovat nii helevetin kärettömiä kaikki.
the 599 gtb is newer and has manual
