2 F40s sold for over 1M recently?

Ricky there are 5 F40s I'm aware of that have sold just over $1m.

 

I presume that they all have less than 4000 miles.

 

When does the mania end?

 

Population increasing, naturally more will be wrecked, so prob never......

 

Hopefully never! Saw one in Australia on the Internet a few months ago that sold for $1.1m AUD ($1.2m USD)

 

Most of the F40s are bought and sold in developed nations. How much do you think the population has increased in the past 5 years? Just 4-5 years ago they were selling for 500-700K. In inflation adjusted terms, never is a very long time.......

 

Correct.

 

I think that it is a lot of money for a ''simple'' F40. Am i wrong?

 

Oh why did I sell mine three years ago?? It's all Joe's fault! Just kidding of course Joe ...

 

please tell these buyers that I have a bridge for sale as well

 

One had 2900 miles which is not that low mileage by US standards..

 

Agreed, its a lot.

 

does anyone have historical F40 prices, going back to when they were new?

it would be fun to overlay that data with, say, the S&P 500 or GDP growth, etc.

 

bello I have a bridge for you too lol

 

LMAO!

 

I hear ya but Gen Y is about to dip its toes into this mkt and dont under estimate their ability and desire to own these cars. Gen Y is also, and give or take a few million, basically the same size as the boomer generation....

 

What desire to own these vehicles? Many of them don't enjoy driving period. Besides when the goal is to keep the vehicle low mileage (for investment/resale) you don't get much driving joy out of a purchase.

Really more than saying "F40s are appreciating" one should look at which are appreciating the most. Low mileage excellent cars. High mileage dubious vehicles aren't appreciating, as the RM Auctions vehicle showcased wonderfully. Even within quality vehicles, quality matters.

 

The bridge I have for him is over a beautiful swamp.

 

Alot of younger ppl will inherit more money than god over the next decades, watch what they spend it on..... After all whats better than a few amazing cars??
