Except that you can buy almost 5 NSXs for the price of this car. Isn’t this new Ferrari just a cheaper rebooted LaFerrari?

Also, while you definitely want to get the lowest possible interest rate for any loan, if a difference of a few percentage points is a huge problem for you, then again, you probably can’t afford a new car in the first place. A $25,000 loan over 60 months costs $449 a month at 3% interest. Each extra percentage…

Traffic cams that tracked the car, or was it lo-jack’d?
