Playing The FERRARI GAME!? Buying, Allocations and Collecting

[@wxsxfxlx]

[@Shmee150]

Crazy! Thank you

So HOW are you able to buy all these cars .? Obviously all your subs/views/ads earn you lots but this is a multimillionaire collection..Are they all financed.?..would be an interesting vlog to make and explain...🤷

[@chris.r.olsson]

I’ve been watching since the 12C (I was in middle school and now have a wife, 2 kids, and 2 dogs) and to watch you and your channel grow over the years and not see your character change is incredible. To watch you go from keeping a couple of cars in your apartment’s garage to a full blown showroom full of some of the best cars available today and then stay as humble and as transparent as you have is an amazing thing. Please don’t stop sharing these crazy experiences of yours!

[@tinshlong]

I miss that 675lt hardtop blue. That was the car to keep forever. What a thing it was. Looks better than anything in the stable. Amazing how much you’ve achieved and I wish you would buy that car back.

[@philipgreensmith1694]

It's amazing that you're in the position you are with Ferrari but I can't believe how quickly you've got there! There are people who have been buying new Ferrari's, own classic Ferrari for over 20 years that still don't get 'chosen' for the limited cars. Keep doing what you're doing 👌 👏 👍

[@D_D_L]

From what I can tell, driving and sharing are way more important to Ferrari than keeping; so I'm not surprised.

[@techtim123]

I’ve been watching this channel since the beginning and I can honestly say that this channel and the journeys you’ve put together have really opened my eyes to the possibilities and opportunities of this crazy car culture I love so much. We share the same name and I am very much a fan of the content all I can say is thank you for sharing your journey 🧡🙏🏾Not everything is to make sense sometimes things just happen because they were supposed to all along.

[@gcscr]

Not sure if Shmee is aiming towards the LaF replacement or the yellow F50 that is exhibition at the Ferrari museum 😜

[@mbal4052]

Without a doubt

[@MountainDewMe]

Of course I really hope a beautiful yellow F50 is a future shmeemobile but there are some other Ferraris I’d like to see him buy as well like a 430, 458 and 812 gts as well as something a little more classic. Hopefully those are the kind of things he is alluding to rather than just the new stuff down the line.

[@suckerz01520]

He definitely is, big things coming soon

[@Speednote10]

Cars like the LaF and its replacement are the ultimate big boy Ferrari's which are offered exclusively to the top tier of their VIP customers. Unfortunately for Tim there's no way he's on that list.

[@rai2u]

⁠@@Speednote10you don't really need to be those these days especially because the LaFerrari has ended prodution years ago and the way you can buy them is through 3rd-party dealers or owners themselves which doesn't require the blessings or allocation of Ferrari,exemption being ferrari dealers themselves selling used Laf's but I think you can get away with being a normal rich person also these days.

[@davidnovosardian6848]

Thank you for wafflling about the topic of Ferrari. I agree with your point in terms of relationship building and feeling a special connection to inquiries, a matter so important people tend to look over.

[@PS-tu2ds]

Your collection, for me, has never been better. Love the Fezzas. The 296 is just fire.

[@cobra1010]

Dear Tim, the Ferraris are definitely the pinnacle of your collection! I am just a bit surprised and confused that you buy so many of them in such a short period of time. I hope you can still use and appreciate them all in future and don't run into an overstimulation.

[@hakonvilvang]

Why are you confused?😅 He literally explained in the video how the «ferrari game» works, buy new base models to get to buy the special ones😅

[@williamrogercummings277]

Excellent, informative presentation. It gives us a path to follow into making the Supercar dream our reality. I appreciate this very much Tim.

[@blastocistos]

Thank you Tim for explaining in detail. I was one the ones that asked the question about having to play the game in the purosangue spec reveal video. It’s now much clearer and makes a lot more sense.

[@stevelee8437]

I love how you can go on and on about this hobby so eloquently. I share the same thoughts you had on the different brands. The Ferrari experience is just a little more direct with the brand. You get on the hamster wheel and you will be offered the new models. With Porsche and others, not really. I'm sad about Porsche especially because they make such great cars and have many interesting limited production models but good luck getting an allocation. Great to hear your authentic voice on this subject. Thx for sharing as always! Happy New Year!

[@minanhaterd79]

the way how your passion for ferrari has been over the years is astonishing and totally real. i love your reviews, cant wait to see more, especially from the ferrari purosangue.

[@jlaplante]

As a pushrod V8 guy, surprised how much I enjoy the sound of the 296, one of the better sounding 6 cylinders I’ve heard in recent years

[@callyk5678]

That makes a lot of sense now, I was one commenting on how many you HAD to buy to get the special one but the way you have explained it I understand now your reasoning 👍 My friend bought a 458 from the same dealer and he said the service was that good he upgraded to a 488 and now has a F8 tributo and is always getting invites to events and he won’t buy anything else other than Ferrari now

[@ANathan123]

Honestly love the comeback Ferrari is having at the moment in terms of car design.

[@Vizmio34815]

I love your genuine honesty and down to earth personality. You embrace what it means to be a collector and I truly have enjoyed following your channel and watching you grow. I too have watched you from very early to now and it’s mind boggling how much you’ve achieved and been able to do. Dreams do come true with hard work and perseverance. Keep up the good work buddy. We all support you whatever you do😉

[@Hazeoflemons]

I agree! Definitely do it because you love it! I love how you have such a variety of cars. A lot of people may say why buy certain this or that because you have the step above it but it’s all the different experiences and sometimes a look just calls out to you and it’s nice to just look at the beauty of the lines in your garage. You have so many vehicles I would call a dream car maybe not everyone’s typical pick but you have amazing vehicles.

[@goldmartijn]

Following you for years now and I can say… you’re living my dream life! I’m really loving the growing Ferrari collection, because the brand has something special around it. Greeting from the Netherlands, a 28 y/o fan

It's amazing to think that I've been watching this channel since he got the Audi R8... I haven't missed a single video since then. Thanks to Tim, I now know so much about supercars and I will always say; Although he doesn't do crazy modifications, drifting, competitions or crazy things when he drives, to me, he will always be the best in his field and the one I will always see Tim, I congratulate you on all your achievements, your dedication, and all the progress you have made and will continue to make every day.

[@AngieMeadKing]

thank you for the comparison between the 2 Ferraris

[@HQBProductions]

Tim….Im too old to try to copy what you do and now it is impossible to catch up but I do admire your honesty and ability to explain just how to obtain and enjoy these cars. I have had a lifetime of cars and started out experiencing Pre War stuff when it was old and tired junk…not by owning it but being surrounded by the cars of my Dad’s friends. I have seen the entire World of motoring change and now we have new challenges and cars beyond the imagination of anybody even thirty years ago. That you can experience so many super cars that few will ever ride in let alone drive, is remarkable but I fear your motoring future is going to be a tangled picture…I don’t know where it is going. Now for me…I can buy a Porsche but my wife’s mobility means only a Macan or Cayenne will work. I can buy a Roma…but she cannot get in one so that kills Ferrari and no, a Purosangue is just impossible to buy! There are loads of cars but age and growing infirmity of family and oneself means….you cannot buy what you WANT but what life lets you have. So Tim…keep buying these dream bars, keep sharing them with us and I’ll go away and configure a GTS with air suspension and comfort seats…..that’s not too bad I think!! 😃😃😃😃😅

[@550panerai5]

You’re a loyal Ferrari customer so you’ve earned the right to be offered a special version. Ferrari we different in that many dealerships are privately owned in UK so there is a familiarity with the team and a sense they treat you like family. Even me who has only bought two pre-owned cars; I still feel like a valued customer who they keep in touch with.

[@kudlaty920]

I've been watching Shmee since he bought first Aston Martin and focused on carspotting videos, not collecting cars. And I had opportunity to meet Tim and his R8 in Warsaw on Gumball3000. I love this channel and seeing how Shmee grow up over the years

[@tonyquickpasta]

Thing is, there aren't many people that are happy for others, they always need to find something to put down someone who is doing well. Tim clearly doesn't flip or garage queen his cars, and if he is buying all these ferrari to get a limited one... its his money, his passion. We get to share his passion, he just pays for it ha ha! I hope everyone is enjoying the ferrari content and will enjoy the future content with any limited cars he gets. Great to see you're doing so well, it's a shame you need to justify yourself.

[@Car10121-s]

@@AB-80-Xthe irony.

[@kevletmein]

The other high level brands could and should learn a lot from this type of experience. Ferrari clearly do it better, less backhanded deals behind the scenes and a nicer, clearer ‘game’ so to speak. The customer needs to know where they’re heading, not ignored. Great video and a good insight into Porsche and McLaren too.

[@TheFakePseudonym]

The 296 is the one I would take of any of your current Ferraris. It’s such a special looking car, and by all accounts, unbelievable to drive. Also can’t beat a convertible.

I’m from Saudi Arabia and back in 2013 my good friend shipped his Ferrari 458 and headed to London for college and once he told me he saw Shmee and he was following us everywhere to make photo of my Ferrari and my other friends sport and supercars and now I can say Shmee beat them all ,Congratulations

[@anthonycunningham4598]

I agree with you Tim. There’s something to be said about having a relationship with a brand like that, as well as being in position to afford and enjoy having the opportunity to collect. Happy for you sir! Thanks for sharing your experience!

I'm Tifosi, and have been all my life so I think it's great you are explaining the story behind collecting Ferrari and the way it works. You should be very proud of yourself and your achievements and enjoy your journey into the Prancing horse! I would be honoured to get a thumbs up or short reply, but I understand how busy you are. Regards Nick ( a big fan)❤❤❤

Love your passion for the brand Tim and you sharing it with us. I wish you bests of luck to perhaps be able to buy a SP4 in the future

[@Shmee150]

Can't wait to see what that will be! Hey, you never know

[@kevinbeausoleil8104]

Scheme I agree with you 100%. I have an f8, GTS 812, 296 GTS on order and the purosangue on order. Went to Italy this fall to configure the purosangue. And it isn’t about “having to buy” it is more like loving to buy and then you find out that opens you up to more opportunities with the brand.

[@Shmee150]

Exactly! Nail on the head. And congratulations on a lovely collection

[@e50teric]

Well…sort of. As a collector with many Ferrari’s (currently a Classiche 308, Portofino M, Purosangue, F8, SF90 AF spider, 812 GTS, 296 GTS and SF90 XX coming) there is certainly truth to “having to buy.” To get VS and/or limited cars you HAVE to buy and hold cars. Tim knows his SF90 must be held until the XX arrives. So, while you buy because you love the brand…in order to collect, you have to buy what’s offered. But, the Ferrari experience is certainly addicting😉

[@wysskevin-tt4vx]

I don't understand why people complain about how these car manufacturers choose the customers for selling their limited cars to... Of course they will offer their limited cars to the loyal and wealthy clients and from what Tim explained, the system Ferrari has, seems quite fair. Anyway, congratulations to the allocation for the SF90XX and your beautiful car line up. To be honest, i was never a big Ferrari fan, but they grow on me, first they look amazing and the history of Ferrari is quite impressive as well. For me your Ferrari line up makes sense, since you have 3 completely different engines in your Ferraris, so just from this, the experience is already so much different. I hope you'll be able to keep this line up for a long time and add the Roma and SF90XX to it instead having one replaced.

[@jakarith]

Just wanted to say that the drive in the 296 was incredible! I loved seeing you take those English backroads at a quick pace, especially in a car like that! Not the most glamorous of locations but that's what made it feel so relatable.

[@SeanOw]

I remember watching you when you collected the 675LT Coupe, and now you have a beautiful barn full of awesome cars

[@marklewis35]

Without a lottery win I'll never own a Ferrari but if I was told tomorrow that I could have any car from the current or recently announced range I'd choose the 296. In my opinion it's the best looking Ferrari for many years, I think it looks fantastic.

[@D_D_L]

Your colour spec of the 296 grew on me, the colour now holds a special place in my mind like your previously owned McLaren Senna (sometimes I wish you never sold it).

I love all of your Ferraris Tim, but this 296? I ABSOLUTELY ADORE ❤️❤️❤️ It is just so pretty, so small, so dynamic, and that sound? It's amazing! Now, yes, you may be a hoarder (I am more of a minimalist since both my parents are hoarders so I know the stress of managing a lot of stuff), but that is a strength in you Tim 🧐 Can you imagine your channel if you only had 2 cars? 😂 I am so thankful for the fact you are a hoarder so I can have that much variety in your content ❤️ Also in terms of the Ferrari "game" I am with you!

Interesting how this has changed so much in so little time. Go back to the Speciale and they were discounting them from retail just to shift the things.

[@user-sk2pq2uq7t]

Great comments on ‘the game’ … I personally changed from a Porsche guy to a Ferrari guy … based on two things …. 1. It’s the passion and excitement of the brand …. Ferrari creates an excitement inside …. A passion …. Porsche is clinical but almost boringly perfect ….. but 2. ‘The game’…. All I wanted was a GT3 or GT3rs to drive … you know, to enjoy that perfection ….. but no …. Not a chance …. The Dealer Principle got the first one for his collection and the Rich ‘flippers’ got the others …. No doubt giving 1/2+the profit back to the dealership …. It stank ….. and my custom went elsewhere because of that ….. Funny thing is I’d have paid Porsche the flippers money for their amazing cars, but I’m not gonna line the flippers pockets !!! And just a shout out to……Ferrari Scuderia 16m …..honestly ….. best car Ferrari ever made … (except F40, F50, Enzo and 250) …… noise, handling, perfect power, analogue but modern, n/a, 499 worldwide, Schumacher inspired, steering and feel and my god …. That single clutch gearbox … it’s as fast as a duel clutch but the feel of a manual ……

I’ve heard that you basically need to lose a million pounds on depreciation of your Ferraris to get into their properly exclusive stuff i.e. Laferrari, Monza SP1/SP2 etc. Think Tim will be super lucky to get a slot for the Laf replacement but he’s having a good go.

[@nickpapagiorgio5056]

To me I think everything you said with the chicken and egg concept was truly spot on, and to be frank Everyone has different tastes and to be honest I would take that 296 GTS over the sf and people will think I’m crazy for saying that but I just LOVE the lines and that rosso Dino orange spec with the grey leather and that blacked out rear bonnet and powered back window that has the vintage look to it from the rear are just so freakin sexy to me that if I had to pick that would be my Ferrari. And yes it’s slower and significantly less expensive than the sf90 but idc and I think you kind of hinted towards that concept that it’s about the brand and cherishing it and also personalizing the hell out of the spec if you have the opportunity to and make it unique and your own. I think your gts is just sexy man! Lol I’m in love with that car.

First, I love Tim. Truly one of the best KZbinrs on the platform and what you have done is insane. So much respect. My only negative about the Shmee collection is there are just so many. I love every one of those cars and what you've done is awesome, it can be crappy though if they alot of them sit for long periods and dont get used properly. I look at him and Hoovie, who I both love and their taste is awesome - it just sucks because so many just sit for long periods of time and dont get to run and drive properly. However, I know Shmee appreciates and probably everything gets driven way more than most of these hypercar collectors, so thats why its still awesome.

I still struggle to get my head round the concept of being classified as privileged to spend huge amounts of money on a new car. However, I do understand the reason that top marques want to stop people from taking advantage of limited supply and making money off them. It will be interesting to know if this changes with the move to alternative technologies, or makes 2nd hand prices even more extreme. The issue I have, and Jayem explained, is that many super cars and sought after models will become too expensive for the masses and will sit in garages appreciating, rather than being driven.

[@isaacanderson7160]

Every dealership plays “the game” they have their top clients who have bought plenty of cars and were a pleasure to work with and so of course a business is going to reach out to these people first as they have treated them well in the past and it’s only respectful to offer your best customers the best stuff first 🤷🏼‍♂️ if you want a XX and aren’t close you can still get one, you’ll just have to pay the premium for it which is honestly less than buying all the cars that require you to get there in the first place

[@DANA-lx8cv]

Maybe the least used so far, but IMO, the best looking Ferrari of the bunch, and perhaps the best looking car, period, in the entire garage! To my eyes, with the exception perhaps of some Gordon Murray unobtainables or rare hypercars, the most visually appealing car on sale today.

[@wallyr.7854]

Tim, as always your YT channel is among the very best on the entire internet, I simply love it. But….now please don’t take offense to what I’m about to express and I also know all the Shmeebites out there may throw hate my way, but please hear me out as this is just one simple man’s opinion/view. Your collection is simply fantastic 👍🏻 However, none of your cars have a, “soul.” Now please allow me to explain. There is no other way to put it but to be blunt, I know you are a self-made man and for that I have the highest respect for you, but you have a rich boys collection. Basically most are modern cars, that are flawless, perfect and basically they drive you, you’re not really driving them. Don’t be offended, but if you don’t own at least 1 car that is at least 15 to 20 years old or even older, you’re just a passenger in your car. For a car to have a soul it needs to be one that has been around for a long time, 15, 20, 30, 40 even 50 years old. Cars that were around before you were even born!Sure the cars you have are exotic to look at, but they don’t have the history, style, beauty, imperfections, temperament and the patina of a classic car. As a true car aficionado that you are, you need at least 1 true classic in your collection. Something that really tugs the strings of your heart and soul when you drive it. Something that you just don’t flick a fancy carbon fiber paddle back to shift into gear something that when you’re done driving it you are exhausted because you drove it, It did not drive you! Just give it some thought, take on the challenge, purchase something older than anything else in your collection, much older and of course, worthy of the Shmee Collection…perhaps a classic Ferrari? 512BBi? Daytona? Or maybe a 355? 😉

I completely see where shmee is coming from and that’s also a reason Ferrari is in my top 3 brands I hope shmee gets a Laf, f50 or the Laf replacement but they do bring a huge tag and I would 100% understand if he wanted to keep the Zenvo longer great video shmee ❤

Lamborghini > Ferrari, all day every day.

[@DELETED-f3x]

@@AP13PI know it’s crazy I rather a BMW over any ferrari if i had to choose between ferrari or lambo Im picking lamborghini all day

[@amarjit_singh_]

@@AP13PDon't be delusional. Ferrari was, is and always will be ahead and Ferrari >>>> Lamborghini! Compare their revenues, motorsport history, road car sales, etc. and you will have your answer!

[@ZondaUno]

@@AP13P I respect that everyone has a brand they love there’s definitely a reason you love Lamborghini same way I have a reason for loving Ferrari

[@MountainDewMe]

@@amarjit_singh_​​⁠​⁠​⁠if you just compare them by history and model range of course Ferrari wins everytime because Lamborghini has always had such a small lineup and a tough time growing economically till recently. However it’s not always just who is best, when you compare it car vs car that’s when personal preference can take hold and a lot of people just prefer the looks or feel of a Lamborghini over a Ferrari or vice versa.

Great vid Shmee! Looking forward, to the Roma. It's going to be epic!

[@jonathanzellner906]

I want to say that “you’re so lucky” but you’ve put in the effort.

[@Akecherfd8424]

You definitely are a Ferrari enthusiast. I looked at your videos and 13 years now you have been making videos. Your videos and you have transformed. Your video quality now is top notch. You are so lively and knowledge of these cars is 2nd to none. Watching you is always informative and entertaining. The only person I have seen as knowledgeable about cars in general is @stevemagnante. He knows everything about old American cars. You know everything about Ferrari and Lamborghini.

Another Tim Self defense video these are exhausting m8

[@karunnagraj8249]

What is he supposed to do? Just take the abuse?

[@dyent]

The current generation of Ferraris are the best looking cars they've offered since the 60s, you don't need any other reason to enjoy them!

[@julianthompson9824]

That’s a superb vlog video. Much prefer this actual Tim character! Ditch the alter-ego and just be you!

[@timmywil]

The touch controls still bother me, but I would get over it because the 296 really is incredible.

[@CerberusTenshi]

You are aware, that you don't need the vignette sticker in the windscreen anymore, don't you? You can get them fully digital. Not sure if the UK offers that, but the ADAC in Germany does. It doesn't cost extra, takes 5 minutes and you're immediately good to go. You can ask for the paper QR code, if you are not fully convinced, that the digital version works. I did that in 2018.

[@AndyWood71]

The 7 year free servicing at Ferrari also makes them nice to own.

[@BollocksRadio]

Well explained... even so it doesn't convince me, buying the complete catalog of a brand to access something else is not buying for pleasure, of course no one forces you and even if they are good cars, do you really buy them for your own taste and decision? That leads me to think that you do not own the brands' products but that the brands own you, and personally I do not like that game, although I respect it, everyone decides what they want to play. I would prefer to see more content from other Shmeemobiles with more history, personality and more loved by the community. Cheers!

Shmee150 Great Video I'm glad you had a great time driving your 296 GTS and I definitely get how the Ferrari Game works and I can't wait to see which Ferraris will be coming to the channel in the future
