    That looks killer! I tried to order the center stripe Daytonas on my 488 Spider but got caught in the 70th anniversary push at the factory and it would have taken too long.

    Yep, happened to me just as you said but my dealer didn’t warn me that was a possibility. Build was specced at the Manhattan Atelier and after seeing Blu Sterling paired with Titanio, I was sold! My first non red Ferrari. I do love the way it turned out with the inverted piping on the seats as well. Build quality is excellent and I feel a step up from my 458s. I was so close to buying a Sartos 720s so you sir have EXCELLENT taste!

    Blu Sterling leather, Blu carpets, stripe and piping Grigio Scurro, stitching in special Grigio Chiaro with Grigio Scurro Cavallino. All CF interior. Will take some daylight pics once outside thaws, crazy ice/snow in Memphis, the city is going nuts.

    Interesting, in Switzerland we have currently more 720S (total 8, 4 used and 4 new, list price and less) on the web than 650S (total 6). From the 675LT are 8 for sale and a lot from the Sport Series (total 41).

    Are you in the market for one? You seem certainly obsessed with finding 720's for sale.

    You got my curiosity so I looked them up. They have 2 listed both near $400K but no pics or details which makes me think they dont really have a car but rather want you to call in. I bet they have a couple customers stating they will sell their cars for a certain amount over list or maybe to cover their costs. As much as some people want the sky to fall for this car, its just not at least not yet.

    Are you saying the market is in fact pretty solid in Switzerland? Seems to be based on the data you presented.

    Their prices are very high, probably over list, my car is loaded up and less than both of those. I dont know if it is true or not but the market out west is supposed to be pretty hot for the 720. My dealer offered to take mine as they have buyers out of state and can flip it easily but I haven't really had a chance to enjoy mine yet and dont want to wait 6 months for another.

    Based on what i see in the internet and speaking with my Mclaren dealer, i would say yes concerning the 675lt (just 3 coupes avalaible) and for the 720s. Also i think the 570s are doing not as bad, simular to 991.2 Turbo S. Mp4-12c and 650s are different stories (but also the 650s holds not to bad in Switzerland)

    Any guess why people are getting rid of them if it’s not for profit?

    It seems to be the same here in the US except I know there are good deals to be had on 570's that are on dealer lots. Whats interesting is that many people are choosing to order their own spec rather than get a big discount on a 570 in stock and compromise a bit.

    You're a funny guy... who asked you to keep them coming.

    People generally analyze these things if they want to buy one, sell one or are in the business of buying/selling cars.

    It can be difficult to analyze based on dealers in new markets. Some may have inventory on hand (new dealer, new territory and getting cars delivered in winter), whereas established dealers in established areas can't get enough of them. They are a big seller in California.
