Wanted Desperately Seeking a 458

Well maybe not "desperately", but I am looking for a 458 that has been stewarded with meticulous maintenance (with records), not tracked, wrecked, rented, smoked in or otherwise, that needs to find a new "steward" to care for it's future! But I would also like it to have been driven at least 1,000 miles a year but no more than 3,000(ish) miles a year. Prefer one owner, but will consider more if records are present. What I want:

Coupe or Spider, but depends on price
Must be open to a PPI
2012-2014
Colors are flexible, I like several combinations. More important is the condition
Love carbon fiber
Like leather, dislike Alcantara, love the contrast stitching and stitched prancing horse
Front End Lift (have a steep driveway)
Full Electric Seats
Parking Sensors and Back up Camera
Factory stock

These are mostly wants, except the electric seats, front end lift, and previous quality ownership.

I have scoured online all the dealers, car sites, etc and thought maybe there is someone here who is looking to make a change in the garage. I am on the west coast, so added points for proximity, but not a deal breaker. Ready to pull the trigger for the right car.

If you've scoured online then you probably saw this fantastic deal a few weeks back. Nearly perfect 458 with 11,000 miles for $158K. It sold within 2 days. I know the person that bought it.

 

Yes I did see that car come up. Cudos to your friend for picking it up.

Any interest in a 2013 458 Italia with 5,700 miles? Fully loaded with Carbon Fiber Race Pkg and the Carbon-Backed 'Race' seats. Extended Factory Ferrari Warranty until June 2019. Pretty much a perfect 458. Nero with Nero Interior and Rosso stitching.

 

How much please? Of course, 2nd in line after the OP. Thank you!

 

Sounds like a great car, but I broke my back a couple of years ago and the full electric seats are important for the adjustability and comfort. I suppose i could refit, but race seats wont have the value to me as they would someone else. Unless my interpretation of the race seats is misguided. I have briefly experienced them in a 430 and didn’t see the ability to make them work for me. Am I wrong in their abilities?

Yes, unfortunately for you, they are not electric as that would add complications and weight I assume.

 

My buddy that is not a member here is selling a 2013 458 Italia Spider with 14K. PM if you would like more info.

 

Bump - still looking. Thank you to those who have reached out with leads.

 

I have a 2014 458 Spider in Bianco Avus with Nero interior with 3987 miles, power seats,some carbon fiber.
My name is Tom
I can provide you with more details if you like this color combination,
It is priced at 225,000$

 

Great to see your ad Tom and priced as a reasonable purchase. I am curious however if you have offers in the 180 area as I have for a mint TDF Spider?

Thx

Blair

 

I wasn’t aware you were a dealer until I followed the link. Why don’t you post the white Spider in the Commercial section like the other dealers.

An update on my “desperation” [emoji51]

Since I started my search last year, I have learned quite a bit from you fine folks, and the marketplace and here is the adjusted wish list. If you have or know of any 458’s like this let me know.

Yr: 2012-2015
Ext: Rosso, Tdf blu, grigio silverstone, maybe nero. No white.
Int: No full red. Tan, Nero, etc. special stitching is a bonus. Color depends on exterior match. Red inserts actually look nice, but don’t care for full red personally.
As little Alcantara as possible. None in the seats.
Love Carbon Fiber inside and out. Minimum: Steering Wheel and dash.
Seats: Must be Full Electric, no racing seats.
Body: Coupe or Spider
Mileage: Under 20k and commensurate with price
Front end lift not required, but nice option.

So, if you know of anything please reach out.

What about this one? It seems to be priced well and I really like the color combination. The vinyl strip can be removed if you like. I have no affiliation to the car or seller.

Ah I see you do not want the racing seats. Please disregard my last post.

 

That is a nice example and have chatted with the owner. It unfortunately has the wrong seats for me. I love the color combo as well!
