Yes, people spend $640,000 based on some news...

As apposed to spending it based on feels?

For people who buy a Ferrari the price is not part of the equation at all.

Also Ferrari’s whole game is demand and supply manipulation - there are always more people who want a Ferrari than can actually buy one. These will all sell out whatever happens.

That goes the other way as well: who spends 640k on a car won't care much about the opinion of influencer X on platform Y.
