Anyone know this 348 Spyder?

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1995-ferrari-348-spider-3/

I was the high bidder and negotiating with the owner

Any thoughts / comments on the car?

Thanks in advance,

Josh

 

I do not know it, but it looks absolutely gorgeous and pristine. I couldn't resist chiming in on the $15,000 major comment...sure, if you tear down and rebuild the transmission while you're in there!

PS - love the yellow Maranello in the background

 

it was listed on here right before BAT - think he was asking 74k

 

Have a link? I’ve searched but couldn’t find the listing.

Bat probably made him take it down

+1 and it was listed for a while. IIRC it was on ebay too.

 

Nice looking car. A lot of negativity about the cost of the major in the comments.

May not matter, but a lot can happen in 4 years (car fax is from July 2014), seller may be wise to throw up a more recent one.

 

I think most of that was directed at a commenter who claimed a major on a 348 is $15,000. I know my comment was

 

It was bought at Barrett Jackson Palm Beach for 40K if I recall. Now being sold again which makes sense. I have run 25 or so 348's through car check and there is no shortage of 6-8 owner cars. This one is an 8 owner car. Not saying good or bad just passing into on..

Once someone sells these to carmax and it enters the auction circuit its a mess. Miles never seem to increase either. Seen a handful selling 40-45K now reselling 54-75k. Some just move dealer to auction, wash rinse repeat...

As an editorial, a few I saw out there right now have NOT been registered since 2013-2015 and the guys selling them are dealers, I called and asked.... How much you want to bet they put 30K miles on it with dealer plates with the spedo disconnected....

One I saw had major service done but did not replace the tensioners. Ugh...

 

Owner went MIA, couldn’t be assed to deal with him, lost interest and bought this instead:

wow that great looking. real standout cograts!

Speaking of 15k service costs, saw another car, read the service records someone spent 17k on major but the receipts list nothing out of the ordinary. no engine or gearbox opening up. So I guess it happens....

Who knows... you may have dogged a bullet on that Spider so enjoy the new ride!

 

Someone was RAPED if that’s the case
