Wait, are you saying that Ferrari Newport Beach are charging your friend a $200k adm on a SF90S?
And yes Ferrari to my knowledge does use the Rolex model, as in ADs aren't allowed to charge over msrp.
well, yes. But my bad, I overshot the runway.
I circled back with him on your statements, and you are on point. They gave him a $700K price and I immediately went to a price point of $500K ish for it not realizing that the spider is coming in/around that $200K premium. That said, it is correct to say that he doesn't have any contractual commitments/restrictions in terms of resell or lighting it on fire once he owns it. The F8 is the same too hence my joy in grabbing his throw back when he's ready!
I got a call today from my dealer my car is delayed from second quarter to the end of the year
With the current GT Series platform being replaced in 2022, will all BS production be considered model year 2021 regardless of delivery date? What happens if current order fulfilment spills into 2022?

I have no idea to say the truth but it’s really just some bad news to me and wanted to share the news to listen from others who are waiting on there order.
Wasn't Porsche still producing 991.2 Speedsters when the fist 992s were also being produced?
I think what's happening with all these manufacturers is deceiving, as in just because there's delays it doesn't mean that they're not making the cars. My guess is that all the cars are still going to get produced in their allotted time frame and then they'll just sit waiting for chips.
I could be wrong but this would be the way to get them all in as 21MY and get them out of the factory for new gen retooling, but yet none of us will have them until they get the chips. Again, also keep in mind that MB is now shipping new cars to VPC without chips and they just sit there parked waiting for them.
This is all speculation of course but it seems to make sense and other manufacturers are doing the same thing. My Durango Hellcat has been built and sitting parked somewhere at the factory for over a month now, exactly the same as my BS.
I've heard of two BS that were complete in as of April 29th that are waiting at the port currently to be shipped to the states.
I also saw on Youtube that there was a Magma Beam BS that was delivered to a customer in Hermosa Beach California.

If so that's not a delivery video. It's hard to tell what it is without seeing the plates but chances are it's like the one in FL that was filmed testing with manufacturer plates.
No BSs have been delivered to any customer in the US ... but I'd be suuuuuuuper happy to be wrong on this one.

Same here. Was originally a February build, then June, now Q3 due to parts shortages. Apparently they’ve sourced an alternate supplier for the component(s) in question. I suspect it’s for carbon body work (in addition to the semiconductor shortage).

Yupp that was the video I was talking about. Damn, I thought that was one that had been delivered.
you are doing well with both of those. The only way you could do better was to buy an SLS BS.... a white one just sold for around $515k in 3 days in newport beach.

Those are incredible, but I don't want to put that much towards one car, and honestly if I did I'd prolly get a 997.2 4.0 first.
The one I really want next is a nice example SL65 BS ... if I got that I would be satisfied with my AMG collection.
The problem is that the market is so crazy right now ... I got really lucky with the CLK and the SLS is also a good deal that fell into my lap, but chasing cars right now is not the thing to do. So the only way the SL65 is going to happen is if again one happens to fall my way rather than me shopping for one in the open market.

Wow...already over $500k. I believe SLS BS will be the next SLS 300 in 15-20 years.

i hope so....cuz i bought an SLS BS in October when they were closer to $400k. It kinda sucks to not drive it much though, especially now in the summer rainy months in Miami. Any gullwing v8 SLS is going to only go up in value.

I purchased my SLS BS around the same time. I do believe we’ll look back in 5-10 years and remember when these cars were still ‘only’ $400-$500k. I regret not grabbing a CGT and F40 before crossing into 7 digits.
