You can still get a decent higher mileage 458 for 160-180k, it may not be as far out of reach as you think. I’ve spent years “trading up”. You can look at my post history here. My last e92 was around 7 years ago. Moved on to a 911 after that and have been driving and flipping cars mostly for profit ever since. Porsche and Ferrari have been very good to me with amazing resale on the right cars.

I’ve probably had 25 cars since then and made around $80k or so driving them. Covid helped that but the principles are still the same. Buy rare desirable specs in great condition at the right price and the demand will be high when it’s time to sell. I do spend a lot of time researching and scouring all corners of the internet to find the right car but I enjoy the unicorn hunt, it’s part of the fun.

You can also a get an FF for 110-150k, F430 for 100-150k, 360 for 70-120k. They’re all awesome cars to drive.
