Guys am also looking at the maserati grand turisimo in red....a bit cheaper and should do the trick with the young sluts.
Negative. There's a reason why Maserati is the most depreciated car in the exotic class. You will spend more on it owning it in repairs than any other car and it will practically live part-time in mechanics garages. If you're only going to drive it carefully on Sundays and put a couple hundred miles per month, you might be able to get away with a good ownership experience. Otherwise, I'd stay clear.

You should be able to save a lot. They're out of production so choose a good used one. Facelift or not it doesn't matter. The limited edition ones will cost a lot more but may hold value over time.

Don't expect the AMG's modern amenities and expect even worse reliability. Ultimately it's an aspirated Ferrari engine with all the pros & cons that brings over the turboed AMG.
I got approved on the Mercedes loan buto am leaning towards the Maserati man it’s just more exotic and I’m still big in the club scene right now.

By the way to help my fellow so suave brothers out..invest in doge coin right now. It’s going to the moon use the money I make you off this tip to find yourself dream girl.

The Maserati's the most unreliable cars out there. If you want a non-me too car, consider, Jaguar, vintage Ferrari, vintage Porsche, Lotus, Ford GT, Dodge Viper GT.

Black or charcoal like @Hank Moody said. Matte finish is more sexy. You want to be sexy and sophisticated rather than new rich flashy. Weird colors do drop the value over time on resale.

Get the AMG over the Maserati. Much better reliability and much higher resale value. I looked at Maserati’s and decided they are too expensive to maintain opposed to value

I drive an exotic/luxury car and love it but it is a very expensive habit. An oil change is several hundred and a set of 21” low profile tires is over 2K. Not to mention high octane gas & cost to wash/detail. Mine is black & black shows dirt if you don’t clean it constantly. But I enjoy it and love to drive it.

As a lifelong car guy I agree and disagree. If you buy certain niche cars or cars at already the lowest depreciated curve, you can actually break even or make money after you drive it awhile. As an example, my '88 BMW M3 I bought over 13 years ago for $15k is now worth $60k. It's been sitting in my garage collecting dust for one of my kid's college fund. There are several examples of niche appreciated cars out there. In the 90's, you could drive a Porsche for a couple years and get back 95% of your money if you sold in the 90's. If you sold that same car (993) in mid 2000's, you could've made 30-50% more. Hagerty.com is one source where you can get historical pricing info and trends on cars.

A house is normally a safe appreciating asset normally but we are facing insane housing bubble now and anyone that buys property today is buying at the top and is a fool because values can only go down from here(no equity).

Personally, I would buy a F-Type for cheap. Look good and attract pvssy. Put a few thousand miles on it and sell it in a year or two for a profit. With that cash, the housing bubble would've hopefully popped by then and the US foreclosure moratorium imposed now until 2022 would be expired where you could pickup several distressed properties for pennies on the dollar. My $.02
Ironically the house isn't what actually appreciates. It's the land the house is on that appreciates.
