This is the reason why Jay Leno does not buy Ferraris. In order to buy the Ferrari you want, you first have to buy the Ferrari no one wants to get on a waiting list. Then, you own the Ferrari you want...but don't dare drive it or it will devalue by hundreds of thousands. But it's easy to "sell out" when you only plan on making 25 cars for EU compliance laws on fleet emissions.
I used to work in this space. People buy these "dream cars" and then drive on average <1000km a year and own the cars rarely after two years. I met so many depressing losers with money I had to quit.
