Following on from the Aventador waiting list thread I Wanted to get the PH thoughts on future resale prices, I have spoken with some dealers and it seems for deposits given now cars will be ready in Summer of 2013.

Having a brand new car is not so important to me and I would be happy to wait around 2 years if going new car route was best option for me.

So my question although some guess work involved, based on other marques new release models what will the 2011 Aventador delivered prices be in 2013.

Average dealer price of spec car today is approx 270 K

What I do not want to do is place no order now and see 2011 cars still holding near list price in 2013, Do we expect this years cars to be selling for alot under list in 2 years time ?

I assume the murci sales would be the best model to base your guess on.

I have a feeling (just like the 458) that even when a car is over a year old it will be worth list+

Ferrari and Lambo are doing a great job these days of keeping supply under control and holding up used prices imho.

Based on previous models price changes it might well be cheaper to pay a premium now

Based on just 1 dealers claimed numbers I would expect there to be around 100 ish cars coming to the market in the next 2 years,

I think if it was a year I would be fairly happy with prices remaining firm but just wonder if demand will still be as high in 2 years plus time.

As stated new car ownership is not highly important to me so I fear placing my deposit now and in the summer of 2013 find that the second hand market is moving at 200K, for me a car that may have only done a few thousand miles and 70 K off purchase price is far more appealing to me than a brand new car at 270K,

On the flip side to that I dont order now and in 2 years time find that I am buying a second hand car for very similar money to a new one had I been brave enough now.

I am informed that a bigger deposit now 30K can guarantee getting in the seat in 2012.

100 cars isn't a lot. Mind you, how many £200k+ cars sell per year in the UK?

I expect the resale value will be largely determined by things like....demand for the 458 Spyder, how close Ferrari are to launching the 599 successor, and whether McLaren launch anything cool. The same guys who are plonking down £270k for the Lambo will be looking at those brands and probably tend to swap and change fairly often.

I'd wait and keep your money for now.
