Ferrari Announces Record Sales in 2008

Great news for those who’s dream it is to one day own an example of Maranello’s finest, it seems Ferrari’s are becoming more affordable!

Much has been made of the economic turmoil and the impact its had on the auto industry. Ferrari, however, is one car company that has managed to avoid the hit. The Italian automaker sold a total of 6,587 units in 2008. This represents a 2% increase over their total in 2007. The North American market is still the largest for Ferrari with 1,700 units being sold in that market alone. Elsewhere sales went up especially in Eastern Europe (23%), the Middle East (12%) and Africa (12%). The company’s total revenues totaled almost $2.5 billion dollars in 2008. This is a 15% increase in revenue from 2007 and a big reason for the jump are the sales of the 430 Scuderia, 612 Scaglietti and the 599 GTB Fiorano.
