    It's called 'resale red' for a reason.

    Blue actually seems to get very high values if its in incredible shape.

    Red is the best for a reason. It's absolutely the most popular/desirable/available/valuable option.

    White is second best

    Black is third

    other colors are distant from those listed above.

    Yellow is dead last. Never buy a yellow TR. yuck.

    Over time, Red is losing its “Italian supercar” status.

    Same for British racing green.
    Same for French baby blue.
    Same for German silver.

    Over time, as “the eighties” continues to gain nostalgia, Miami Vice White will overtake resale red on the Testarossa.
    I suspect we may be at this point already.

    The market says different and always will. Red Ferrari's are the safest color by far on resale.

    I would say red for resale, black for being the best color for a Testarossa.....but I'm a little biased.:)

    This thread may as well be titled what is your favorite flavor of a donut.

    Europe and US are very different markets. Miami Vice White has little, if any meaning in Germany. When an American 15 year old dreamed of Ferrari in the mid eighties... it was Miami Vice White.

    White is certainly pretty. Red is just a much more anticipated color to Ferrari's.

    If PineChris doesn’t he can use one of mine.
    I actually have two white jackets. One in a cotton blend and one in linen :)
