A friend of mine is buying a Ferrari 360 Modena F1 2004. But I told him that parts can be very very expensive.

Anyone here can advice how much a normal servicing would cost and how much roughly parts cost?

What is the worst case scenario (most expensive) of something going wrong and the cost of changing the part, labour and the part cost also?

Thanks

If u afford to buy the car u can afford to servicing the car as well.

its ferari, it never break.

okay. just to give your friend a figure to compare, a mudguard for the front wheel of a lambo is around rm15k per side. it only costs around rm 300-400 for 'normal' cars. do the extrapolation for gear box, engine overhaul, etc, and you will get the appropriate figure for maintenance.

i'll start save my money for this....

eh how can just per mudguard RM15,000? You tell me change timing belt for RM15,000 I believe. Or change clutch at that price also I believe.

Dont answer like an ass. Many owners sell of thier car's just because they cant afford to maintain it after buying it after a few months, if they are unlucky facing many problems.

correct!!...so how much really the cost to maintain the horse ??

ferrari parts very cheap la..ask him go on ahead and buy it


if no money ..then buy proton ...

F360 is slightly more expensive to maintain then F430. I would estimate,

Every 6 months oil change - RM3000
Tires - RM8000 (Can last up to 2 to 3 years if you travel around 3000 to 5000 per year)
Clutch - RM15000 - Depends on your driving style. Maybe 20000km to 30000km.
Timing Belt - This one not too sure. Haven't really come across it. You can call up Ferrari and ask how much. Every 15000km.

If u cant maintain it, just rent one.

There was time share ferrari cars offered here last time. I wonder if the scheme is still available?

Total maintenance expenditure: 40% of the car's value, every 7 years.

Simple math.

True...

Can't pay, don't play. If you have to budget and calculate maintenance, its highly likely that you're not ready for a Ferrari.

Well i think u can send to naza for servicing since they r the official distributor of ferrari here. But if u can afford the car, u sure can afford the servicing otherwise forget about it.

Not true.

I know some rich people who are really calculative by nature. Or some people who like to plan their expenditure.

buy from kedai potong for part

what u think?

Haha...those are the worse owners.

Low spec cars with minimum maintenance done.

But its just a limited observation, on my part.

not like u will drive it daily. its a weekend car.

for the one that can afford one? no, its normal for them. unless its bugatti veyron, now that's expensive!
