    I bet what worries Pista owners the most right now isn’t appreciation or depreciation, desirability or production numbers: it’s the not being able to drive and enjoy the car due to this damned virus.

    Kind regards,

    Nuno.

    Indeed Nuno, we all want to get OUT and drive.

    But most events (ours too) are cancelled ...

    Totally agree with this. About the only positive regarding this devilish virus is having more time to drive and more open roads to do it on.

    If the reason to sell the pista that much under is to buy stock not, he most likely will be screwed even more. The chaos of the market just started.

    In the way things are going, you will get for much less! Don’t mean to make a joke at this time.
    But don’t you remember 2008 and 2009?
    These seems to be a few times worse!
    Peace!

    I could care less if you believe me or not. I have no skin in this game, just reporting this is all. Desperate time desperate measure for some I guess.

    I don't know the whole story but he did it to buy stocks is what I was told. When I was told the price...I was as shocked as you all...but it was a rash quick deal/decesion. Maybe the owner had a huge note to pay on it, bought for well over sticker and hated to free up money...cold feet. I know the feeling be there before.

    Yep 100% agree...its the production numbers on a car like this that matters most. Except I can still social distance by taking my 488 out of my garage, drive around for 30min-1hr and go back in garage ;-) Humm hopefully the cabin filter filters virus' LOL :) Be Well!!!

    I hear you, my friend. Did the same thing this week. Gotta make the most of it, before the order to close down public roads for leisure purposes comes.

    Kind regards,

    Nuno.
