| - This is a review for the "showroom tour", not for the dealership services or maintenance. I don't own a Ferrari so I can't attest to any of that.
Very disappointing. It's a $10 fee to walk in and look at the Ferraris, and they don't have anything truly exotic on display. Nothing older than 2002, certainly no FXX or F40, and not even a single F1 car on display from ANY era (remember, the only reason Ferrari starting making road cars was to finance their racing efforts).
I remember seeing plenty of Californias, F430s, a few 360s (yawn), and several 458's. Plus, they had a few Porsche's in there, nothing exactly exotic - just a few 911's or Carreras, not even a GT3 let alone a GT2.
I'd love to tell you exactly what they had and didn't have, but they won't let you take any pictures of any of it. It's ridiculous. I just wanted to take a few cell phone shots to show off what I'm looking at to my car nut friends. Don't try it or you get stuck with a $50,000 fine. Yeah, really, there is a big sign saying NO PHOTOGRAPHS followed by what kind of fine and prison time you'll have if you dare use your cell phone to snap a picture.
It's insulting after paying $10 just to walk around a very plain, not so well lit showroom filled with used Ferraris that aren't exactly the top of the line models. I'm not asking to climb under the hood and take pictures of my face pressed against a V12. I just want to take some pictures of the cars with my cell phone.
At the McLaren dealership in SF you climb in a brand new MP4-12C and then take pictures. Here, you can pay an additional $15 to climb into an older F430 with a green screen behind it. Then they change out the green screen for something like the Wynn hotel behind you, so I guess you can pretend that you drove up to the Wynn in a Ferrari and "Hey, don't believe how well I did in Vegas? Well, my dumb friends, look I have a picture to prove it! I'm in a Ferrari, I told you so!" It's blindingly tacky.
Plus I still can't get over that there's a Honda Indycar and an older Corvette parked there but they couldn't get Ferrari HQ to send over a single one of their hundreds of F1 cars.
The best part of this tour was the laminated badge you get to keep when you leave, which I guess is worth $10 because it says Ferrari on it and actually looks pretty nice. It also doesn't specifically say if you're a "visitor" or an "owner" so I guess you can take your visitor's badge and your $15 photo and convince your dumber friends back home about how good you did in Vegas.
