Quandary

Unsure what to do,
I run a TVR Tuscan, prior to that ran a Cerbera.
I would like in a couple of years to get a Ferrari 348, as a keeper, always loved them.
Now as an interim thought of an 3200 Assetto Corsa, but also have the choice of a 4200 spyder.
I really don't know whether to wait 2 or so years, or get the Maserati as a stepping stone.

The Maseratis are not commonly regarded as the cheapest cars to run. You may find yourself eating into your Ferrari fund to run the Maserati. Just a thought.

[Allandwf]

Neither were the Cerb or the Tuscan. Don't mind keeping them maintained it's all part of it.

[Pork]

Just an opinion, but I would have thought the 3200 AC would hold its value better a) becuase they're limited editions and 2) bacuase the Spyder isnt generally considered one of Maserati's better cars.

Whatever you do, get a PPI done by an indipendant specialist and go in with your eyes open.

What's keeping you from getting the 348 now (cost of ownership can't be worse than a 4200 can it)?
Or do you just want to scratch the itch on a few other cars first?

[Allandwf]

The Tuscan has an engine warranty, which expires next year. Thinking was, to sell while still under warranty, and, hopefully, get a better price, and get the Maserati, while I build up the funds. Other option is to keep Tuscan for another year, put money aside and go for the 348.
