What is so reckless about this is the arrogant assumption that the LF-A will rampantly grow past its MSRP of $375,000 after sale, especially given the obvious fact that better looking and better performing exotics are much cheaper and equally rare. Leftlane reported.

Discuss.
Because the simple fact is this happens with EVERY high end exotic car. Rich boy A gets one, rich boy B HAS TO HAVE ONE so he calls daddy and gets one at any cost, well all are sold out... But I will sell you mine for $500k... waah I want it.... OK SOLD!

There are whole exotic broker businesses built around this. They buy up early runs of the new Lamborghinis, Aston Martins, etc and then then sell them for a big profit.

If you search the forum we had a good discussion about how this works a couple months ago too.
