And then I read from the track junkies that Ferrari build quality is strictly "cars and coffee" reliable. If you want GT3 level durability, or a car you can drive on the street and track equally, you have to dig deeper and go for the track versions like 430 Scuderia. Apparently there's a big difference in quality between Ferrari for the street (likely to be very low mileage for its whole life) and Ferrari for the guy looking to put some hurt into his tires.
Funny you say that. I go to our regular cars and coffee and have been for over a year. I have seen 2 times where cars have left on a flatbed. Wait for it...Wait for it...Ferarri. BUT it was the same 360 both times. So really one car twice! His is red with red white and green italian stripes offset down the car.
