Increase in new 348 Owners

With really nice 348's selling in the low 40's and upper $30s LOTS of people are realizing now is the time to grab a 348.

Your car looks like a nice car at a fair price!

 

Love those wheels. Great car!

 

Can you please be more specific on the wheel brand, size, offset?

 

John, your car is awesome. Maybe Bushwacker is ready to buy it back.

 

those are cool wheels what are they? what size?

 

car looks awesome. only assumption for the increase in 348 owners is the prices they are selling for and the number of 348s on the market...best of luck selling.

 

Those prices are for ratted, storied, neglected cars.

 

I agree

 

I gotta agree with you! For the most part I've not seen anything worthy of having for less than high 30's to very low 40's prior to buying mine. And I have to say I was blessed to have found a very giving person. I got mine for far less than it could've fetched and have only found out how superb of a deal it was after the purchase. Before that, I knew it was a good deal and a great car, but I've been corrected at least a couple dozen times by people saying it was an exceptional deal on a stellar automobile.

Since my purchase a little over a week ago, I've not seen anything under $40K I would compare against mine. I'm not bragging, I just think the prices in a last couple weeks have perhaps spiked a bit upwards and people with well sorted 348's know that demand is up and won't budge.

I'm glad to see such a fine model reclaim some admiration. They are a true "driver's" car.

Here is a pick of my '95 Spider

Good luck CopterJohn with your sale. Yours is a real beauty!

I think this one looks to be the best deal out there. Car photos well and if he can prove the provenance on it (receipt for '07 major) that would make someone a helluva car for the money. I'm soft on the blue...It looks good, but wouldn't be my first choice. Still an excellent deal if it is what it is represented to be.

 

Thank you! I have never in my life felt so blessed.

 

After three years of ownership I think it might be time to move on....

The car is a 1990, 43K miles, 355 wheels, carbon sills, SS spoiler, painted bottom trim and targa top. Also comes with an original soft top in excellent condition which is very rare.

Car has been serviced for the past 3 years at the wizards from competizione in gaithesburg. I have receipts for a Sept 07 major + replaced all valves + hyperflows. Last month I got a brand new dual plate clutch and hill engineering throwout bearing.

Interior is in great condition, exterior has some rock chips, paint has surface swirling so could use a full detail.

Any thoughts of what I should list this for?

Thanks,

-Eric

I'm new to ownership but not to researching them to death. Like I said, they seem to have gone up a little in pricing in just the last couple of weeks. I'd say get the swirls out, maybe even spend $300 or so to get the front spoiler repainted to get rid of the road rash and you've got a beautiful car. If you've got provenance on her beyond your '07 major, clutch plates, and bearings... You've got a solid $37,500 to $40,000 car. You could probably start her at $45,000 and get some interest.

Just one man's opinion though...

 

beautiful cars our 348's

 

Try buying a 348 in Australia. You are looking at circa US$86k.

 

Pap must be a very, very wealthy man....

 

Tempted!

Closer look at the Ronal wheel.

Geez!, I can't believe someone has not bought Johns car.....all the bells and whistles, engine by Eugenio and meticulously cared for by John. It doesn't get much better than that.

I've seen this 348 in person at our cars & coffee events and can say that this is an excellence Ferrari, It just has a great look, love the rims and drilled rotors and interior. I can tell from looking at this car and from talking to John that this 348 has been well cared for.

 

I paid US $99K for mine in 2005.

I was back then.

Now I am a broke ass fool on the end of my pityful road.

 

Ain't marriage great?!

 

Yup

 

Nein!!!

 

He is just that - especially in wisdom.
