2009 C6 Corvette Z06
7.0L V8
6-speed manual
505 HP
2 seats



1995 Ferrari 456
5.5L V12
6-speed gated manual
444 HP
2+2 seating configuration

You can get both for about the same price nowadays. Have driven the Ferrari; there is nothing in the world like it.

What's the warranty like for the Ferrari, I know you can't service or repair both cars for anywhere near the same price.

If I could afford the Ferrari I wouldn't be worried about maintenance cost.

The Ferrari repairs, and there would be significant ones for a car that age, would be enormous. The Vette is a b it ordinary, but much newer and has a lot more life left.

So neither.

I do know that the engine, usually a cause for concern in older Italian cars, is derived from higher-strung V12s in the 550 and 575, and therefore is pretty stone reliable.

Neither. Stop being such a consumer and build your own car bitch.

God I hate people like you, it's not all about speed. Some people don't want to rattle apart in some shite box that's built only to go fast in a straight line.

Ferrari, hold onto it, will be worth 4x as much down the road.
