I've been keeping an eye on the used Ferrari market nearly every day for the last 6 months. I probably won't buy one any time soon, but if I do, it would be an F355 or a good old Testa Rossa. I've seen decent TR's for $50k to $60k recently, and a fully serviced F355 seems to be around $65k.

Reading the article about the cost of ownership, all I could think was how you could reduce most of the repair costs by a factor of 10 if you did all the labor yourself.

I'll probably hold off on Ferrari ownership until I have a garage with a lift in it. Once I have the ability to do my own engine-out service, I think I'll be all out of excuses not to do it.

I wouldn't sell the Boxster if I bought a Ferrari. I'd have to have something to use to bring home groceries.
