Why 4.6: The scissor-door flagship bought overwhelmingly for what it says at the valet stand. The ISR gearbox punishes commitment, the V12 rewards it, and most owners never find out which wins.

The long version

Values slid for years after launch and only recently clawed back to sticker, which tracks a car that circulates through collections more than driveways — few owners keep one long enough to learn the ISR gearbox's rev-matched downshift trick before trading up or out. It shows up at cars-and-coffee more often than at track days, and the scissor doors do more lifting in photos than the V12 does on the road. No badge tag yet, but the pattern reads like a Garage Queen in waiting: short ownership windows and a resale market that rewards the last big-block V12 Lambo more than the driving of it.
