    There is a number of Dinos for sale in the UK just now that have been unsold at the same asking price for quite a long time. These two, however, have been around for over a year and now the price is going up!

    https://www.nickcartwright.com/car_sales/ferrari-246-gt/ was originally asking £400K, then reduced to £350K, then to £320K (December 2017), but now is back to £365K.

    https://www.nickcartwright.com/car_sales/ferrari-246-gt-flares/ was available for £550K in December 2017 and is now asking £595K.

    DK engineering had a very nice 246 C&F GT for sale at £595K and its now sold so looks like it set a precedence for Cartwrights car, hence the increase I suspect

    John, looks like it.
    If it sold for 595K, my car may be on the market soon as its the sister to that one

    this raises a question for me - how many DINOS are here in the states compared to Europe and the UK?

    The market overseas has to be relative to the supply - I have bought and sold a lot of cars and never have I bought one internationally.

    When I was looking to buy my Dino - I read the ads for cars in London and I just moved on. Seemed risky and hassle-laden.

    I think it would also be interesting to know how many Euro Spec Dinos are in the U.S.. Some states such as California now make it difficult to register these vehicles if you bring them in now. Makes those that are already legally registered even more rare.

    Certainly a very nice looking car, but I would be amazed if they got their price for it.
