All that said, my dream car is still a Ferrari 355 (slow... but beautiful) and they have fallen so far in price that they are about the same cost as a stripped C6.
But the Ferrari Parts tag is ridicullouuuuuus

I just read an article that one guy had to replace the headers twice in 5K miles.... $6K per side.... Yup that's right $24K in maintenance over 5K miles.... just paid 1/2 the cost of the car right there......

Brakes.... I'm pretty sure they're carbon Fiber... Probably $1K/pad and they probably call for replacement 2x annually

A great car but in no means affordable just because they can be found cheap


Ohhh and your GTM is much cooler - Very nice color choice
