4) Not for general population except for prestige? No. A Lambo is a prestige vehicle, a car that is priced new to be an "accessible version" of a brand is not a prestige car.
5) Special dealer? No harder to find that Merc or Audi. No.
6) Scarcity? Not really. Compared to "Last year, Ferrari sold 6,250 cars worldwide" That's 5x.
7) Special tools to repair? Yes. So does a Chevy. So that question is pretty foolish
8) May have competed in races? No
9) Exotic design influenced by past exotics? Really? No.
10) Unusual concept or design, including special functions? C'mon. You're really stretching on these.
You can call your car an exotic car if you want. I suggest you do it on most automobile forums and see how people respond.
