I laugh when I hear people talk about "maintenance" costs of Ferraris? What a joke. If you can pay $300,000 for a set of wheels, $30,000 for maintenance should be pocket change. As for convinience, take the SL while the 360 is in the shop. Bottom line if you're worried about maintenance and service, you either don't have enough money for Ferraris and Lambos, or you don't have a clue as to what they're about. Stay with BMWs.


1) As far as I am concerned, the style of the Z8 is superior to the Jag, Lotus, Ferraari and Lambourghini that I seriously looked at first
2) I heard that the maintenance on many of those other cars was far higher and the car would be in the shop more often
3) Great relationship with my local BMW dealer who has been servicing some 4 BMW's I have bought over a long period of time
4) ITS AN AWESOME CAR !!!!!!!!!

How come you Z8 owners decided to purchase a Z8 over a ferrari or porshce turbo? Although the Z8 is undoubtedly a beautfully well-made and engineered car, it is still just a BMW. This message is out out of pure curiosity, and is not intended to be an insult.


We're smart enough to spend a lot of money on durable things, not high maintenance ones. I guess there must not be a lot going on on the ferrari board huh?
