    Ferraris in South Africa – How to Invest

    Ferrari remains arguably the single most iconic sports car brand in the world, with this Italian manufacturer popular in regions throughout the developed and developing world.

    This is an interesting observation, of course, with regions such as Africa renowned for being economically underdeveloped, while the cost of the 2020 Ferrari SF90 Stradale model is estimated to be in the region of $625,000.

    But what are the origins of Ferrari and its models, and does the company represent a viable investment in 2021?

    The History of Ferrari and its Various Models

    Ferrari can trace its brand roots back to 1929 when Italian Enzo Ferrari formed the Scuderia Ferrari racing team.

    By 1947, Ferrari was producing a small range of sports cars, with the brand having gone from strength-to-strength ever since.

    Unlike a number of similarly independent companies, the Fiat Group-owned Ferrari has continued to thrive after the death of its charismatic founder, creating a scenario where its vehicles are now sold freely across the length-and-breadth of the globe.

    In Africa, Ferrari constantly battles with Lamborghini for the title of the region’s most popular sports car, with this evidenced by the fact that the two brands have sold several supercars in South Africa during the coronavirus-stricken 2020.

    The majority of these sales were valued well above the R5-million mark, with Ferrari’s 812 GTS model the single most expensive at R8,178,000. Just one unit was sold throughout the year, with this 6.5-litre V12 petrol model capable of moving from 0-62mph in less than three seconds. #

    Two units of the Ferrari F8 Spider were also sold for around R6,108,500, with this model powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.9-litre V-8 engine that produces an impressive 710 horsepower and 568lb-ft of torque.

    This car has an incredible maximum speed of 211.3mph, making it one of the highest and quickest sports vehicles in the world.

    Why is Ferrari Such a Viable Asset?

    Unsurprisingly, Ferrari’s global popularity and reputation for excellence underpin the world’s most robust automotive brands, whose market value soared to $30 billion in May.

    This is far in excess of the market values associated with far larger automakers in the global marketplace, such as Detroit’s General Motors, Ford and Fiat-Chrysler (Ferrari’s former parent company).

    Of course, Ferrari’s most recent growth has also been powered by increased investor demand, with high-end luxury brands offering a viable option during the coronavirus pandemic. Certainly, retail investors who have joined a trading platform with an account of free sign-up bonus during the pandemic have sought out robots and high-value assets, with Ferrari more than fitting this bill. 

    Remember, Ferrari’s are also incredibly generous and relatively high at 24%, while its total market capitalisation value is roughly three times the $11 billion valuation afforded to the brand prior to its initial public offering.

    Ultimately, these factors combine to create a highly attractive investment asset, particularly as a buy-and-hold stock that continues to appreciate over time. You can also optimise your exposure by trading the Italy 40 or NYSE indices, while various CFDs are available through the forex market.

    This trend is unlikely to change any time soon either, even against the backdrop of an increasingly uncertain economic and financial climate.

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • The totally bonkers Ferrari 812 Competizione was spotted in Bryanston today by Brad Ainge.

It actually makes the F12tdf look quite tame in comparison. Which would you rather have?

Priced around R14m depending on spec.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
