Again, that is not the car. This car has had the 15k and at that time the major belts and tensioners were done. |

Jon,
If that is the car, then it is worth at least 5K less than I thought because it has only had the 15K service which is basically an oil and fluid change. The 30K service is the major service that will cost about $6K to $7K.

Is this not the car in question?

The reserve was met at ~$70k, which is a good deal IMHO if everything checks out. |

Front bumper repaints or bonnet repaints are no problem (everyone does them eventually). The prices in FML and Dupont are mostly listed by dealers and are very negotiable (unless you are an uneducated buyer and then the dealer would get those prices!!). I have negotiated a 95 Red/Tan car with 8K miles and a new 30k service with waterpump and one year warranty for $79K from a dealer who will back up the car. They also put new tires on it as well and threw in a 90 day bumper to bumper warranty. I also found a 97 with 21K miles and new service and clutch for $81K. Again I would put the car you are looking at at $73K to $75K depending on if it needs a clutch. |

No, the car is not on ebay. It is cosmetically perfect, however, it looks like the front bumper was repainted. 75k sounds like a fair price however, why do you see on Dupont, Ferrari Market letter, Cars.com ect. for so much higher than that price. Are these asking prices in the high 80's out of line, or do they just ask high for some reason and then sell them in the 70's. |

Jon,
The car will probably need a clutch soon and I think that's about $3K. Assuming the service was done right at a Ferrari dealer, and the car cosmetically is very strong I would put it at $75K. Feel free to ask me any other questions. I have just gone through the same process for 2 months.

Didn't you just purchase this 95 off ebay for $71.5k? |

Color is red/black, the belt service with tensioners was done 3000 miles ago and it is a two owner car with books, tools and service records. I do not know if the clutch has been done. |

Jon,
I would need more information. What is the color combination on the car, How many miles ago was the belt service, Did they replace the tensioners/bearings when they did the belts, How many owners did the car have, does the car have all books, tools and records? Did they replace the clutch? etc...

Can anyone give me an idea what a fair price would be for a 1995 F355B with 22,000 miles and service up through the belt change about 18 months ago. Thanks |
