We just heard how Robert Maduri got snubbed by a Ferrari dealer and is looking at a McLaren MP4-12C instead. Is that the best way he can spend his money?
Using a strict budget of $230,000-$240,000 (roughly the MSRP of a Ferrari 458 or MP4-12c), you can get a McLaren, or you can spread that money out over multiple cars. We think we can come up with a package of cars that's not only more fun than one new Macca, but better value too.
There are two rules. First, the end result must leave Mr. Maduri with at least one thing that's reasonably reliable and respectable for his social standing. Second, you may not stray above or below the $230-$240K budget by any more than $5,000.
