Looking for Mint 456 GT with manual

Great car for the money.... not exactly a looker though.

http://www.vast.com/cars?make_id=Ferrari&model_id=456&body=Coupe . Also try Ferrari Market Letter if you haven't looked there.

There seem to be way more autos on the market than 6 speeds though. It's a fairly quick car but more GT than a sports car.... heavy feeling.... at least the one I drove was.

The dealer is awesome!!!

 

My favorite is one of the dark reds with a tan interior, there are pics of one in a thread about Marriotts party.

 

Be familiar with the difference in the models.

The "M" stands for modified(in english) and these cars are the later cars. These cars all have GT in their names as they are grand tourers par excellence.

A GT is a stick, a GTA will be an auto.



456M GT Highly recomended.

 

Sophistication with Panache. I can't recomend it enough.

Here is my Argento(silver) and Sabbia(sand) 456M GT.

I think the car can be devestatingly beautiful in black also.


Best of luck,

Stan

This is really my baby and I love her. I use her on special occasions and probably drive her twice a month. She is my date night car but I have tracked her.

She will account for herself very well until the tires start to "go off". With her power and torque she was able to persue closely some very fast stuff. She is a bit heavy in the front and she will "push" a little. I ruined a brand new set of tires in one afternoon at the track. I am fairly new to it so I have learned. Now I can feel when I am using the tires too much and can start to "manage" them much more than then.

First(after about four laps) I would feel the fronts start to go. Then your steering gets a little vague. A couple laps later the back starts to go and get loose and you will slow down.

I do not want to track her any more as she is just too fine and the perfect GT for me. I purchased the F1 360 in the pics for that and I am extremely happy about that.

As I said earlier, if you are looking for a GT I can't recomend it strongly enough.

The light interior is another matter. I haven't used it enough to comment. My DD is a 2000 M5 with a black interior and I like it for DD.

I love the Sabbia however and my advice will be to get what you love.

 

THey have the nicest one I have seen in a while at Ferrari of Atlanta. IT is a manual with the MOD wheels. Awesome looking car. Call Levi, he will help out.

 

The rims look great on it.

I have a 1999 456M GTA in TDF Blue with Crema interior piped in dark Blue. I am really happy with the car after having it for two years. I have put about 4K miles on the car si nce I have owned it

 

Instead of 20" HRE's can I recommend 19" Novitec's

I think 19's will be much better than the 20's on the car (especially as a daily driver), and well its hard to beat the aesthetics of the Novitec Rossa Wheels.

best,
