The GTR isn't a limited production car is it?
I think it is limited but I could be wrong. If there is going to be a black edition of the GTR though you're right it will not hold its value.

I am leaning towards the 488 just because I have never had a Ferrari and then the Gt3 RS for just a pure track car. But the 675LT is an amazing car I agree

You'll be a paying a premium for the 675LT so not worth imo plus the new 650s replacement is coming to Geneva which is supposedly going to have 700+hp.

And it's a good time to order a 488 because the wait list locally has shrunk to the point where you can take delivery this coming summer and you don't have to go through the whole "you have to be a owner or else you have to wait 2 years" BS.

To be sure, I'm going to say that most, if not 99.50% of people won't be able to buy 2 supercars, let alone one supercar or borderline supercar (>$100,000) car.

It's going to be down to utility for me (or relative utility when talking about supercars).

Heck, if I had the money, I would buy 1 supercar for each use (track, everyday use, touring, etc.).

But, as mentioned previously, 1 supercar is usually... USUALLY... enough.

So, it has to be able to do most things above average.

Basically, I will be driving it at least 50% of the days of the year.

I'm going to proffer the 2017 Audi V10 Plus into the mix.

It's really the everyday supercar, and it's naturally aspirated.

It can be tracked, driven in a city comfortably, and has ample room for the long road-trips (if you were so inclined for long road-trips).

Granted, it's not going to be as good as 2 or 3 of the listed cars (by OP) for tracking or handle as well in certain circumstances.

But, heck, it's AWD so you can drive it during winter to Cypress, great for city driving, WUNDERBAR for highway, and it has a somewhat roomy interior (for driver comfort).

And, the ooomph....... exhaust note.

So, if I had the money, rather than look at the long-term residual value for sale, I won't buy. I would lease a 2017 Audi V10 Plus.

Get the GT3RS with the manual trans. Nothing beats driving car with a stick.
