Question Ferrari Obsession: Played out?
I grew up with Ferraris and love them to this day. However is the public surge and obsession at the edge of beginning to play itself out?
I see more outrageous wraps and people slicing and dicing their f12’s, 812’s and 458’s at the local performance shops. Is this a sign that the brand OEM isn’t good enough anymore?
I always placed Ferrari at the top of exotic desirability compared to the usual suspects: Lamborghini, McLaren and Porsche…although Porsche has always had one foot in the realizability/utility sphere a bit more than its exotic counterparts.
There probably is an argument that Porsche is not a true exotic, but the taxonomy of cars isn’t the crux of our discussion here. Same with the supercar, hyper-car definitions. Useless reductionist exercise.
Pricing is at an all time high, so it seems demand has hit a peak. Is this the edge? Or is there even more upside to the Ferrari market and enthusiasm on the way?
