    Correct, but IMO they attract unique buyers and are not a true representation of where the market is at.

    There is no stock for sale at the moment so I dare say if anybody wants one they need to offer strong money. A precedent has been set.

    Alternatively, there is no stock because they're cheap and not worth selling. $100k is chump change in the Ferrari world. If you sell, what else do you buy that has the same bang for your buck?

    Unbelievable - 7 pages of discussion that has remained more or less on topic.

    Good influence from V12 FEHOS owners.

    We can't have that.

    You need a 575.

    Loving that manual 612. Surely that would have done most of its depreciation given the rarity and colour

    Life's too short to have only owned one or three Ferraris

    Well, if you want an Australian car yes, and the 550 was the last Ferrari with a cable throttle control with a manual transmission. The 355 being the last V8 with a cable throttle.

    The last manual transmission car with a front engine was the 599, 612 and California, all seemed to be phased out about the same time, some 3-4 years ago.

    Assuming that's important to you.

    It is to me, however it would be remiss and naive of me to suggest that it is to everyone else.

    I am astounded that this thread has stayed mainly on topic despite the fact it was started by myself.

    I love red Ferraris, but that is just way too much red.

    Red exterior, red calipers, red carpets.

    Lol lol lol. :p
