the Ferrari market watch thread

I'm sure that bloke would get a blue rinse if you asked him

 

Any one know what the 246 lot 71 got at Shannon's Auction on Monday
https://www.shannons.com.au/auctions/2018-shannons-sydney-autumn-classic-auction-rare-number-plates/UXH6CVG8M2446562/

 

It passed in at auction in the high 5's but I heard from a source who was there that the underbidder came up to $600K to clinch the deal.......

 

Good but not silly money which reflects the market

 

One for Greg. An orange Daytona at Duttons.

Surely F430s are not worth that much

 

For that money I’ll have the 458 Italia all day long they are dreaming [emoji849]

I would rather spend 200K more and buy a Scud......

 

I would pocket the change over a 991.1 GT3 personally.

 

Must be pretty close to 997 GT 3 RS prices ?.......Looked at a black one with orange wheels a few years back at Syd City Prestige.....They wanted 220K for it....I think it was an 09 model....Geeez it was nice but I bought another F car instead...

 

If I could get hold of a straight early manual Murcealago for 250 I’d buy a gt4 with the change

If you bought an early Murcie, you'd need a tow truck driver on speed dial.

 

They are excellent even broke down stood still,that is a small clutch for such a big car mind you but now and again you’d get those perfect moments on a long quiet straight road at 02.30 am, just you and it..

straight road?? how exciting.

 

Plus the fact the pedals and steering are offset at a crap angle so any length of time in one you would have to have your chiropractor on speed dial.....

 

agreed, but the same thing applies to a 246, because the seats have no support and the angle your accelerator foot ankle ends up with quickly becomes uncomfortable. 308 seats are 20% bigger and actually have some under-thigh support.

 

It was still worthwhile installing cruise control in the 308 to save ankle ache.

 

Well when I get one that’s the 1st thing I’ll be doing and yep I recon it’ll be fairly exiting and after I’ve done that I’ll find something else to do with it [emoji851]

After that you can do burnouts at McDonalds on cruise control........

 

No Gary I won’t be doing burnouts at McDonald’s that’s illegal and a waste of a good diff[emoji12]and or $20k clutch
. It would be fun to just have one in the garage for a bit.

You forgot all the while you in there items, belts exhaust, mounts, bushes, engine bay tidy up, etc, and usually finishes in a full restoration paint trim...
