Lots of carbon apparently, 500 miles through v management, seems a bit steep?

That's some ridiculous pricing, £500k. Holy crap! The depreciation could be enormous. I'm not sure I like this. Lamborghini made it bonkers with the Urus but the Puro is a mistake I feel. And the price, even if I had that amount of money, I wouldn't spend it on a car.

I swear I saw a build slot advertised for £999,999 a month or so ago.

I’ve been offered cancelled slots and had vids or cars with a few hundred miles on offered in the £400ks.
Think basically a few chancers out there. Likely we’ll see a chunk of depreciation on these over next couple of years.

Agree.. especially when the V6 hybrid one comes out. A used V12 one at £250k is probably the right entry point in the future.

Reminds me of the early Urus which were selling for top dollar but now values are return back to reality.

But who would choose a V6 over V12?

Anyone who actually wants to use it as a normal car. I love a V12, but in this a V6 hybrid would be a lot better choice if you are not using its at high rpm most of the time.

But yes I agree, its not a supercar engine, but its not really a supercar

4 to 5 year old ones, with 40k to 50k miles still being listed for £140k plus.

I’d have guessed by now they would have been down to £80k ?

Also thought amazing how they hold value when I looked at used prices recently

80k from 5 years ago relative to list price is the equivalent of 110k now though. Still surprising for a mass produced car with lots for sale that they have held so well, I honestly can't believe it.
List price (without options) 165k from 2018 is now 230k which is pretty much what a new one is with options.

They initially sold well then dipped for a while to 140-50 as you would expect and then went mental over covid so it not like its always been over market.

I think it's a dream car for a lot of people that don't really know what a supercar is or could never be in that market. It's the Louis Vuitton bag for the masses!

It's a daily exotic

I think people under estimate the number of people whod buy a supercar if it had 4 seats

I bought a gtc4lusso v12 simply because I wanted to be able to take my children in it. A 2 seater I never used as I work a lot so can't go for fun drives, but if its practical I'll use it every day.

I drive the lusso almost every day - I drove a 488 1000 miles a year

But Ferrari have sold 4-seaters for years, and they've never been that popular - the difference is the Urus is an exotic SUV. SUVs are what folk want, so to have an exotic one is catnip for the folk who can afford it and want that kind of car (i.e. more exotic/rare/in your face than a Range Rover)
