550/BARCHETTA/575/SA MARKET

I thought I would start a new thread to keep track of and discuss this market/inventory in North America. I borrowed this idea from Stokpro for the CS market thread. I think it would be a good place to keep track of the market and inventory on these V12 GT cars. I will just contribute a few ads to start it off.

Just from a short time looking at a couple of publications I have found:

From Canadian Autotrader: 8 - 550's for sale, 1 Barchetta & 4 - 575's and 1 - SA

I only noticed 2 SA's for sale on FerrariAds .

 

Here are the 2 SA's for sale in Canada:

I did not intentionally omit the 456 market......I just forgot to add it and should have thought it through before starting a new thread.

 

Low mileage 550:

Randall, I think that is a very sharp color combo. The price is very reasonable as well.
I have a 2005 575M F1 Argento Nurburgring/Nero and this 03 for sale has a sharp interior IMO.
That will be a good buy for someone who likes that color combo. I think it should sell fairly quickly.

 

Here is one from Sports Car Company:

Sorry, but I do not know the history on this car.
Maybe someone else here does or just call Ferrari of Newport Beach and they will let you know.
I inquired about a couple of different cars there when I was looking to purchase, and they were great with sending me all the history they had.
That Barchetta seems to be a very fair price. I don't think I would sell mine for less than 175K unless I needed the cash.

 

I borrowed this link from Zedtt:

https://www.vintagedrivingmachines.com/car-listing/2002_Ferrari_575M?ajaxed=1&ad_id=19150663&action=viewlisting

 

It seems that this car has the 575 headlamps, very strange indeed.
Maybe there is a story to this Barchetta?

 

"This is/was a Jon Walton car, and it was built after the first few 575Ms, so it's possible - though I have no proof - that it left the factory with those headlights. But irrespective of the ownership provenance, it's more likely that the headlights were added after market."

It is odd that a limited production, numbered car would have different headlights than the model specific year; especially being a Barchetta.
You would think that they would follow production specifications unless the owner actually requested 575 headlamp assemblies.

ps.Maybe the originals are in the trunk.
