Need some expert input...
I'm very new to the world of Ferrari, in that I've been a Porsche owner for many years, but as one other poster has stated, I think I've seent the light and seriously considering a gently used 360 Modena. In that regard, I need some input from folks on a couple things:
1) The price: the dealer I'm working with is talking to me about an 02 Spyder F1 with 8,000 miles and wants about $185K for the car. On the financing side, he would give me $65K for my new 05 Porsche 911/997, which has about 1700 miles and I bought the car for $78K and is pretty loaded with options. Of that $65K, the dealer would then give me cash of $45K and then I would have to put the remaining $20K down on the car with lease payments of $2500/month and with a residual of $98,900. Is this a decent deal or should I run for the hills??
2) I'm a bit confused as to whether or not I should go for the F1 paddle shifter or a good ole fashioned 6 speed and need collective thoughts on advantages and disadvantages.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
