Gonna rent again!

Ferrari produces great cars (had a 458 before this one and a 430 some years ago).
If you compare a 430 to a H it for sure slower but you are comparing a care made in 2004 (with 490 hp) with one produced in 2014 (with 610 hp).
Try on a track a 458 or a 488 and then let us know if it is a fashion accessory.

Most people buy an exotic car for the pleasure of posses and to be able to drive it whnever you want.
Costs are high.
You have to pay 250k. Full insurance in Italy is about 11.000 usd a year. Taxes on exotic cars 10.000 usd. A set of tyres 5.000 dollars.
If you have to worry about the daily cost just rent it.

I did the Gallardo before in the past and then I did a Ferrari F430 later. I felt I like the Gallardo better. But after driving Huracan I won't rent a Gallardo anymore. I felt the Gallardo just looked fast than really feeling fast.

But now I can choose to try the 458, I just hope it will be on par to the Huracan and not feel like a down grade. The dealer may later have a McLaren 570 to rent for the same rate.

I just don't get why common people with normal money don't consider renting a Ferrari / Lamborghini if they always envy those who drive one. $300 for 2 hours, that's more than enough to satisfy having the experience that you drove an exotic car. I thought with these rental prices, why are there so many people in this world who haven't experienced driving an exotic?

Comes to think of it, you have a valid point. Some of the guys I know, buy them, drive them once a month for 30 minutes and sell them 2-3 years after that.
It appears that your rental suggestion is much feasible for those guys
But luckily ... we are not like them

Agreed. If you're going to own a garage queen and drive once a month, you might as well rent. I drive both my cars 3-4 times a week if the weather is decent. Going out now in the McLaren just for kicks, drove the H last night just because. For me, it hits a nerve that nothing else does.
