Best time to buy???

Hi Guys....it is the rookie here. Looking for an 07 599 with 5-7K miles for 190 to 200K. Prefer gray, red or silver. What is the best time to buy and get a reduced price from a dealer??? A 599 advertised on the internet that has been standing there for over two months....and the asking price is 200K.....what should I be able to get this car for??? Most dealerships discount right before the New Year....is that true with someone dealing a Ferrari? Once a new year hits....does an 07 599 lose some value??? Just trying to get a feel for the market. Thank you! D-Man

 

A lot of depreciation has already come out of the 599. Not to say it wont lose more because it will. These cars are not assets. They depreciate everyday. The longer you wait the cheaper it will be. If you want to play now, you have to buy now.

Its impossible to say how much wiggle room is in the 200k car you mention. A number of factors can effect how much the dealer is in the car for.

If you have the cash and want an amazing ownership experience buy it. The enjoyment factor is incredible.

 

Always costs more than we want and sells for less than we wish. When the right car comes along, don't cheat yourself; treat yourself.

Why??

1) dealers itching to do a deal.
2) you get an awesome Xmas present!

That's what I am doing...

 

And the 550?

 

I love this quote , just brilliant bob and sooo TRUE.

 

There is an '07 gray car in Boca with around 11k miles, but priced at $185k. I think it has ceramics. I have absolutely no idea what the shape or condition is, I am just always looking around myself. Not my color.

 

Are you going to buy the 599 sight unseen from the UK?

 

That's for Melbourne....

No, I am going to fly over to London at Xmas time to check each car out in person.

 

Where is the 599 going to sleep at night if the 550 is in Melbourne?

 

I apprecite the advice guys....just want to make sure I am buying the right car at the right price...just the way I am. Regarding the gray 599 in Florida.....I am looking for a car with under 6K miles.

Thanks again!!!!

I am going to keep the 599 in the UK for Overseas road trips.

No point having one in Melbourne when we now can have our license taken and car impounded for doing over 25kph.

It's a joke in this country!

 

You ARE the man!! I take it you have some family or friends who will 'store/garage' the 599 for you?

Any chance of tossing the Wife and the keys on my next visit to Europe?

 

I think what pap is really saying, he wants to run the 550when you are in england

 

550 or 599, i'll take either one.
