120k is barely a down payment on a Ferrari.

Definitely not true for a sweet used one

Yeah, but you said going to the Ferrari dealer, not going to Craigslist.

Imagine your surprise when you realize you can buy a used Ferrari at a dealership

A Ferrari dealer is not like a Toyota dealer. They are like 99% new or special order, and the other 1% that is used is all current model year with very low miles, or older but very rare and expensive.

The odds of getting a Ferrari for $120k from a Ferrari dealer is probably slimmer than your chances of being given the bag with $120k to begin with.
