I just wanted to say I’ve been watching your videos for several years now and love learning about the exotic world of cars. I know there are several cars in a similar price point as the scud that will get you what you are looking for in performance, technology, comfort….. ect. I think a car that you would never consider due to the fact the car will lose value over time but you should look into it is a C8 Corvette Hard Top Convertible and this car has everything you are looking for in your next car at 1/3 the cost and the features on the car with the GT2 Bucket Seats are amazing with the mid engine it gives you the stability on the road and driving through the country roads are amazing. Thanks again for all the content you put out.
I adore my Scud - it certainly gets used and does plenty of track days, but not so much massive long journeys so I'm happy to live with the rawness. Can't wait to see what's next
EAG is great as long as you enjoy the the risk of having stolen parts on your car that others paid for, or just buying a stolen car entirely. Great and smart mechanics though.
Thanks Ed I’m on an “epic road trip” in my 17 911 from California to Colorado and back with very little interstate- each leg an adventure. Definately helps to experience the car and all the features vs commuting in Orange County.
One of my clients had a black with gold stripes Scud along with a regular 430 back when they were new. I got to drive both of them, along with his 599 and the 2 Murcielagos he had, and driving them back to back it was crazy how much better the Scud was than the normal 430. Glad you had so much fun with it and can't wait to see what you get next. I'm thinking about doing one of the rallies next year maybe I'll see you on one with the next car!
I can't think of a more perfect exotic that checks all the boxes. Since you posted the first video on it, its the only exotic I've ever really been interested in. I felt your pain on that last drive. Sometimes searching for all the new in the world can't replace the old.
I too have had excellent service from my F355F1. I am fanatical about maintenance, but it has exceeded my expectations in terms of comfort, fun and dependability. Some people are afraid to put miles on F cars as it will hurt resale, since most believe a high mile Ferrari to be terminal. Exceptional cars should no doubt be cherished, and driven!
There are definitely some perks to having all that new technology in a newer exotic, sometimes you just want to jam out to Britney Spears with the cooled seats on
Ed I seen the Spyker at the car show on Saturday. My pontiac fiero gt was parked with the Pontiacs . Great to see all of the trio of cars. I watch everyone's channel. Very entertaining. I love your Spyker. Amelia Island was nice it's to bad we had so much rain.
As much as I love Ed and the Scud, I hate Ed’s Videos OF the Scud. It feels like with every video that comes out they go up in value. As I get closer buying one they get further from where I’m at. All in, good on ya man!
Ed, back in the 2000’s I loved the Scud. I was always a DuPont Registry window shopper/owner, because I would never be able to afford one. When you got this, that became my dream Ferrari. I would have given anything for a shot to buy this one.
An nsx might be the perfect replacement. Not the newer boat. But the old sports car which the f1s chassis was based on. They're rock solid, extremely fun to drive and are still daily driver by their owners.
WOW! Hate to see the Scud go from the stable, but I'm REALLY excited to see what could replace it. The 812 was my first guess, probably because I think it's one of the best looking Ferraris ever made. But regardless, I know it's gonna be interesting!
Another great video Mr. Bolian but sad to see it go. Love the Sucds and 16M. I find they are one of the best sounding cars when listening to it standing outside of the vehicle while it is accelerating hard. TDF next ??? 😉😀
Don't know how to react to this, as Greyish Silver Scud is beautiful , sad to see it go from Ed's garage, hope it finds loving and caring home somewhere
A bit of a curveball but I would love to see you in a 675LT or Speciale, Ed. I can also really get behind the idea of an F12 tho… Really loving the content, and I’ll keep living vicariously through you
I like the 430 nice car. For me Iam a 458/488 kind of guy. For me thoes are just great looking cars . I know there not that far off from the 430. I think they are so iconc looking really . Well Ed I hope you get something super cool and enjoy You certainly deserve it . God Bless your family and your self .
430 Scud was the first real supercar I had a chance to take a passenger ride in back when they were just under 100 grand. Grey with silver stripe Blew my mind if I ever have the money that would be my choice, so aggressive whilst being precise
It was a super special experience to drive one back in the days at Spa Francorchamps. This car does more to me then it's younger brother the 458 Speciale. The gearbox has that really raw experience while being super quick. Yes there are quicker DCT/DSG boxes these days, but this gave me racecar feelings.
Congratulations on enjoying this beautiful! And yes once you have a daily drivable sports car like a 997.2 turbo S with all its new technology and power it is going to feel great!
There’s one Ferrari I’d love to drive is there laferarri fxxk evo from what I’ve been told they are like £10,000,000 and not many people are afforded the opportunity to own one. They aren’t anywhere near legal and just animals, even the 599 fxx and fxxk were so much sexier than the road version
I saw this thumbnail and thought "Ed is selling the scooter?"................... Does that mean I watch too much VinWiki, yes I know this is Ed's channel
I think you should’ve kept this one because the price is only going to keep going up on the scuds , you can reference this comment when they’re $100,000+ than what you sold it for in the not so distant future
What about a Ferrari ff or gtc4lusso ? Certainly seem like they would be more comfortable for long journeys and you’d get the choice between v8 and v12 with the c4. Unless you aren’t a fan of a shooting brake ?
Ed i could see you in a vr6 beetle only 250 made fast the wife can drive it you would fit in it and it would be hillariously funny seeing you drive it cheers from down under
@@EdBolian I need to come back down to ATL one of these days. I think on my next trip to Americus I’ll fly in or out of ATL like I used to and meet up with you guys again.
"In 15,000 miles it only cost me $20,000"........ Yeah sounds reliable to me....LOL!! I've had many sports cars over the years I've put over 70,000 hard redline miles on and none of them combined cost me even half that!
That number does not surprise me. I looked after my mates F430 when he was away and they truly are not a well made car, probably on par with a Fiat 500 from the same period. The 458 however was a major improvement.
I feel like a 458 would be a good replacement. Slightly more modern, actually known for being reasonably reliable (several examples out there with well over 100k miles on them), moderately more comfortable. Maybe not F12 levels of GT-ness but you could definitely could do a lot worse.
@@drstevej2527 eh I haven't met any 100k Ferrari owners personally, but they're out there. It's like saying you'll never meet a motorcyclist with over 100k miles on his/her bike. Rare but they exist. Even though it's newer, the 458 is probably the most common Ferrari with over 100k miles since those are pretty bulletproof mechanically. Those high mile cars rarely hit the market though because usually they are bought new or lightly used and then daily driven by one person for several years. I think the craziest high mileage Ferrari out there is the Enzo with 95k miles on it out in Utah or somewhere.
@@NicholasNormile Compared with Porsche I find that the Italians are rarely used as daily drivers and if it’s the case it comes with huge maintenance costs. The 458 is a great car but it comes with a lot of issues if you opt to daily drive it. In any case Porsche has changed the game in terms of reliability as only Lexus has a higher customer satisfaction rating. I’ve known a few Ferrari who daily drive their cars. All but one was the owner of the Ferrari shop. The other bought a new Ferrari every 2 years. Ferrari simply does not have the R&D to make a true sports car that one can daily drive without a huge investment in repair and maintenance.
@@drstevej2527 there’s someone in my town that dailies a 458. I don’t know how many miles it has but it’s seemed to be reliable to him and he drives it a lot all over the state I’m in
@@joeygennaro1192 That’s the exception not the rule.Ferraris are notoriously unreliable and very expensive to maintain. Secondly unless it’s in the Deep South or in he southwest it’s not a car you can daily drive all year. Lastly those who know the character of these models know that Ferraris owners don’t put many miles on their cars. Their reliability is terrible as a daily driver.
I can't imagine letting a car like that go even with the 3 Murcie's. The F355 is still my fav, but the F430 has grown on me and the Scud is the one to have. The Gray over Red is a Great color combo as I have my M3 like that.
At first i was 😱 why would you sell that awesome car? And then i remember it was never in a flood. So yeah makes sense. And last week there was a whole garage of supercars under water in Miami i believe so I guess Ed needs garage space 😅
I think you did a great job summarizing what the ownership of the scud must have been like! Have you considered some of the exciting choices from other flavors of cars? Maybe a crazyily built SLC, a calvo viper, Ariel atom, or a factory 5 cobra? Maybe a huracan STO wouldn’t be a bad choice either. The STO is effectively the scuderia for the huracan haha
To me he wants different driving experience. The 458 is too similar. I bet he ends up with a Porsche 964 turbo or another Porsche model. Porsche’s are a reliable car too l. I own a 430 and he is correct it is a reliable car and to be honest the stock leather seats are super comfortable even on a long drive. I think my seats are more comfortable that his Scud seats. My fuel pump and motor mounts needed to be changed. Looks like that is a common problem with these cars.
Listening to Ed talk about the car you can tell why he was one of the best car salesmen around.
And his delivery is so annoyingly cogent and seamless. Dude can *talk*.
@@TheJohn8765 He doesn't use filler words like "um" or "ah". He articulates himself really well.
Yeah the amount of talent he has is rare. Thankfully he went the car salesman route instead of the cult leader route.
I'm not easily charmed, but Ed could sell me literally anything... Even if I knew I didn't want that thing, I'd be a buyer.
And a very boring one
I was about to say, "A ferrari is most reliable car you ever owned? Thats insane!"
It’s true. I own a 458 Spider and it’s been a pleasure. Solid car.
@@sebastianmoradi4311 Modern ferraris are definitely back on their game. From Vin wiki and other related channels, it has become more apparent that other cars are not much different. We have seen with Car Wizard, simple failures on a Ford F150 costing more to fix than Hooptie Ferraris.
It mostly seems to be now just price of parts on performance spec models. Carbon brakes or older manumatic transmissions. Some of them repair bills? I think to myself about my ten year old hatchback (astra) that has had more problems despite full dealer servicing since new and taken care of. Many thousands of dollars.
Service vs MSRP cost of car? My Astra is far worse than any exotic seen on the Car Trek network of tubers. By MSRP of car? My Astra is worse than the Hilton SLR repair video.
Side humor? I dont have anything exotic myself, but I can relate to the sentiment. I wanted to pick up a new (am sure Ed cringes at thought of buying new) car for summer fun and nice weather shows. But so frustrated by reliability of most nice cars in my bracket? I didnt choose Camaro, or Mustang, or Type R, or 3 series BMW or an A class Merc.

Thanks! Yes, always looking for something else fun to replace it with.

He will enjoy it even more. He owns it again.
Ed we all know your love of buying cars with "a story". It's no surprise this was your most reliable given the evidence from your purchase history.
I appreciate your videos on this car. The 430 Scud has become an aspirational dream car of mine because of them.
Great choice.
🤦🏽♂️ this scud had no chance in Ed’s fleet. It was worry free and dependable. (Enter a sketchy, slightly moist high end replacement😁)

Keep the AMG heritage going Ed, buy an AMG GT as a daily
No thought toward a 458? Should be more comfortable and slightly updated tech

S Line exhaust is the bees knees
$1.34 per mile 😂 seems like a good deal
