Ferrari says it will raise prices by 10% on some models to offset auto tariffs

As it turns out I have a Ferrari F80 on order for delivery in June. This tariff war business is now hitting close to home as I've already pre-paid the $3.5M and Ferrari's telling me they won't deliver until I shell out this additional $350K additional charge.

I'm now thinking I'll just have the car shipped from Italy to my Summer villa on the French Riviera to avoid the additional expense.

I'm now asking my fellow FReepers to help me out...should I cancel my order for the Ferrari now and get a refund, or should I go ahead and remit the additional $350K in extortion money?

[Red Badger]

Well, damn! There goes my next car...........

[BBQToadRibs2]

So instead of $240,000 it’ll be about $260,000.

Damn, that breaks the bank. Maybe next year.

My guess is if you look at the net and TOTAL costs, both options are going to be equal.

Don’t look at just one part of a system.

“For the limited edition F80, which starts at more than $3.5 million, the increase will add more than $350,000 to the price tag.”

Dang, and I thought the F150 was expensive.

You only go around once. I say get the Kia and buy oceanfront property in Greenland.

That design looks weird to me. Not exactly the more beautiful ones Ferrari has released in the past.

[dinodino]

Ship it to France, clearly.

[The Sentient Sheep]

Even with a 25% tariff on imported cars to our Nation, because of the tariffs imposed on American cars , they will still be more expensive in these other country’s. They refuse to be competitive and they can scream all they want about Trump. To bad.

Why not, instead, buy a used 1971 Dodge Colt? It would save you some money.

[FlingWingFlyer]

If you can afford a Ferrari, 10% is chump change.

Like kids say, “seriously?” LOL.

You got me. Better than the BEE.

[Wayne07]

That's just the concept sketch, actual production car looks more like a typical Ferrari.

I just got off the phone with a friend who’s a prince in Dubai. He suggested I trade him the ownership rights for the Ferrari in exchange for an Arabian horse he owns that’s already here in the states.

I was hoping to use this Ferrari as a “chick magnet” here in rural Texas, but I’m now thinking a nice horse might actually be a better option to get the girls who live around here.

This trade could be a win-win.

I’m looking to buy an Acura RDX. Is that close?

[Sirius Lee]

Dang, and I thought the F150 was expensive.

F-86 is even more expensive.

I’m assuming it’s set up like a McLaren with a single, center-seated, driver in front (no passenger seat).

It’s a superior design if racing, but no room for the supermodel vixen in the passenger seat, so what’s the point?

[FlipWilson]

Why not set up a go fund me page and solve it that way?

[MeanWestTexan]

My neighbor has several Ferraris in Midland, so it can be done in WTX.

But that’s Midland.

[Larry Lucido]

I hate having to take the wings off just to drive it to the store.

“Oh, no! ...Anyway” - Anyone who can afford a Ferrari.
