Martin, I doubt he bought the other car...sometimes a guy will call just to argue with you and waste your time. Probably couldn't buy a happy meal on pay day.

How does a car drive that has only that little miles? Just wondering. The 28K Miles Spider I have drives super super strong. Loves to go out.

Miles is such a bad indicator. Condition is the right one and service just done.

I am selling a 348TS with just completed 30K service ($5,500), new clutch ($3,000) and some extras ($1,000) and am asking $ 49,000. So people call and offer $45,000, that is to compare them to other cars offered at $48,000 which do not have had the service just done.

I had a guy call who flew to LA and looked at a consignment 348TS with 50K Miles. They were asking $55,000 for the car, he offered $42,000 and the car did not have a service done (due at 52,500 Miles)So he basically offered $ 51,000 and could have bought my car for $2,000 less with 15,000 miles less. When I told him that he never called back. I guess he bought the other car.

Back to the subject Condition and Service.

In your shoes I woudl rather buy one with 20K Miles and the 15K done recently for $ 110,000 than this car for the same with less miles and no service.

Eli, a 348 is not worth $80k even if it only had 10 original miles, had been stored in Enzo's basement since new under bubble wrap and had the 30k service done at the Ferrari factory yesterday.

Clark,

I would not pay over $95 for the car. one, The car is due for a major service $5K. Two, there were some kind of an issue with most of the 95 F355 and their valves which is extremely expensive to fix. You should also consider the color combo. The 348 i mentioned can be had for $80K just to give you an idea.

Its worth no more than 110k probably. Im no expert, i just see them around there. The color will make a difference. If its white on red or something it might go for a little less(no offense against white/red cars, just an example)

It is a one owner, Ferrari of Atlanta sold and has serviced the car. It is not too worn looking , the leather just looks like it has a lot of ripples in it and not as supple?

7K is not that low. I know of a 95 348 spyder for sale with only 5K miles . I have no clue why these people don't dirve their cars.

How badly is the leather worn? If it is just the bolster on the driver seat, that is normal. Mine has 7K and the bolster has some wear(can't keep my fat butt from dragging on it). What does the rest of the car look like?

Yup, sounds like someone pulled the plug on that one.

Buy on condition, not miles.

Any opinions on a fair price for a 1995 355 Spider worth? It has less than 7,000 miles lether has some wear on it and some road rash on the front.

The vavle guides have not been replaced. Would you be worried since it has so little miles?
