And the maintenance costs would be a blast too.

I drove one on a race track this summer and...............I wasn't that impressed to tell you the truth. Maybe, it was the floppy paddles that threw me off. Or, maybe I was expecting more because of the hype. I am old school and still believe that a true sports car needs a proper manual shift. Anyway, I did about 6 laps at WOT and it was fast but, I have driven faster and more enjoyable cars. Yes, it did handle extemely well but, it just wasn't raw enough for my tastes. Believe me, I wanted so much to like it since I am a huge Ferrari fan but it was just OK.
