"If you can afford a used one but not a new one, you can't afford a used one. Pick up an NSX or Corvette instead."
i may never have heard it more correctly put as far as exotics go. that is a great statement.
however, i think one of the reasons that many people buy used exotics is so that they simply can get one! by that, i mean that often, unless you have already owned a lambo or ferrari, you can't even buy a new one. they either make you wait on a waiting list for 2 or 3 years or they simply refuse to sell to you period. buying used lambos or ferraris lets people get into the circle of owners without having to wait on a list for years. once they're in, they can then buy new ones more easily...
the only reason i know this is because one of my friends recently sold a business he had started and made millions. first thing he did was go to the lambo dealership. they told him the wait for a murci was on the order of 30-36 months, but he could buy a used 2005 one (this was in 2007) with 9,000 miles on it for about the same price as a new one. he jumped all over it and hasnt looked back since....
