TORN! R8 or 360 F1

Guys...

Looking to get a weekend ride (the M3 has been magical, but it's paid off and I have come into a considerable bonus and it's time to play).

I am looking at an 08 V8 R8 with 7800 miles, R-tronic, nav/backup, Silver on Grey. $95000

or

2001 360 F1 Red on Beige with 8000miles $83000

The R8 is in S.Naples FL and I'm headed down there to test it this weekend (happened to coincide with Monday/Tuesday business in FL).

The other is from a dealership that my coworker bought his Ferrari from...Marshall Goldman. He raves about them and their professionalism, but my issue is with the maintenance of the 360. I have heard horror stories about the mid engine prancing ponies and I am hesitant, but the price is on point.

I have dreamed of owning a Ferrari since I was a kid and this 360 would truly fulfill the "Red Ferrari wet dream".

The R8 just seems more practical. An Audi dealership is down the road from where I live, all modern features, AWD, plenty of "wow" factor, and less problems.

But.....the other is....a FERRARI...
