But let explain how much of a big deal that is...
Since I live in Brazil, imagine all the difficulties of daily driving a Ferrari, but worse. For instance, if you think a car like that is uncomfortable, imagine
how
uncomfortable it will be to drive it in our streets...
Other reason not to DD a Ferrari is maintenance. If Ferrari parts are expensive pretty much everywhere, over here is no exception. For instance, if you have a 458 Italia over here, a shock absorber will cost you US$10.000, and if you need a new rear bumper, that's US$15.000.
If that isn't enough, you can think about depreciation. The average used 360 over here has 20.000 miles and coasts around US$150.000. The highest mileage one that I could found has 28.000 miles it has dropped to US$120.000. From there, you can imagine what a daily mileage can cause to it's value...
Last but not least, there are bikers. BIKERS EVERYWHERE. And a Ferrari doesn't exactly have the visibility in the world.

I don't know if it is still like this, but when I was growing up in Alabama way back in the 70's/80's, that would have been considered a perfectly fine paved road. I left there a long time ago.

This is just a random sample. It's not hard to see lots worse than this... Potholes, uneven cobblestone roads, narrow secondary streets...

Shitty roads? hahaha, this was a friend of mines winter beater (as in in, he bought it just for winter) at the beginning of this winter (was because he ripped it apart to replace trans axle pieces and put in a nice exhaust but has already decided to buy something else, so the Ferrari will be back on the sale lot once he puts it all back together). Oh, and this is in Colorado, known from time to time to get multiple feet of snow.

Okay, I'm impressed...
But still, over here it's crazy expensive (it coasts like 600 minimum wages). And people say that GTI's and Mini's are way too stiff to our roads, and I imagine that a Ferrari would be even more.

Yeah, does sound expensive, haha. And tbf my friend with this one does for the most part own/run/be the son of the owner of a exotic car dealership. He actually just got his next car for the moment, a E39 M5..I think I may have to go look at a Alfa that they have in stock atm though, just because..Alfa... lol
