I just wanted to point out that Dallas used a $20,000 Ferrari in his comparison.

You might be able to get a beat up 308 for $20k. A 308 does not have $10k brake pads. More like $100. Even if you replace the entire brake system, I don't see you spending more than $4-5k on a 308.

The Enzo, on the other hand, has $20,000 brake pads IIRC. That's because it uses some space-age material and process to make them.

Just because they wear the same badge, you can't associate maintenance costs of a $20k car and a $650k car. Apples with apples after all, right?
