The "problem" with used exotic cars is not the price of admission, but maintenance. Those cars do go through sets of tires very quickly, and those tires are expensive.
IMO, if you want a coupe, go for a stick, it will save you tons of $$ and headaches. I love my CC, but it does cost a lot to maintain, do a search under "clutch replacement" and "F1 pump".
If you keep checking on this forum you will end up doing some Formula Dynamics mods, springs and DBW for sure, and watch out because those guys are coming up with new stuff... and you know that feel of "I must have it!". I got hooked!
On a positive note, you may be able to sell that car in a couple of years for the same price you paid. The Mercedes will depreciate more, that Maser is at the bottom.
If you decide to pull the trigger, don't rush, make a lower offer, it's definitely a buyer's market, there are plenty of cars for sale right now.
And the most important thing, if you can, buy a Nero Carbonio color, it's the fastest!
