The used car market is now just a big glut of expensive cars. Making matters worse now are these insanely low interest rates which make getting into a newer really expensive German car a piece of cake. So those people dump their over-priced, barely 3 year old cars onto the market as well.
We are going to be up to our eyeballs in Porsches, BMWs, Range Rovers, Audis and Mercs for a long time to come.
I didn't see Ferrari in there !

Who needs for a Ferrari. For $60K the new Stingray from Goverment Motors is going to beat the pants off any Fiat Italia or VW GT3 RS. It's already rumored to be matching those $120+K race-rubbered cars on just street rubber....
You can't even get a Boxster SPyder or Cayman R for that kind of money. And the kicker, track miles in no way affect warranty claims. They WANT you to beat it up. Porsche can't even keep the lug nuts on their center lock cars without absurdly expensive service intervals.
