The Official LaFerrari APERTA Picture Thread

Those two pics are the perfect example on how orange reflectors and black wheels literally RUIN the Laf/LafA

 

The yellow collection is in Houston but he also has a yellow LaFerrari Aperta. This one is owned by @jtay44 on Instagram who also has an FXXK Evo.

 

Thanks a lot

I wonder if Jtay44 is Fchat Member @TrojanHorse... both are in texas and own a black 599 GTO

After some research it's not the case

Jtay44 = John

Trojanhorse = Paul

 

The ideal spec for an Alperta, in my opinion. The only thing I would have changed are the black exhaust tips to titianium.

 

Looks flat & fat in this pic, despite the black wheels/yellow calipers that I find wrong on a red LaFA

I think the more relevant question is, how do you *practice* that shot? Put your 812 SF there instead?! Lol.

Can anyone confrim that Apertas really sell for these numbers?

 

WHICH numbers are you talking about?
And when and where and which currency?

I was talking about +4mil, Europe, EUR currency.

 

I don’t trade these cars, and so am less well-informed than many of my compadres on this forum, but having kept a casual eye on LaF Aperta prices for some time, I would make the following observations:

1. Given Ferrari’s 2-year lock-up on the vehicles, the first Aperta’s that were contractually allowed for sale were available in 2019. There was therefore a massive premium for the first set of Aperta’s that traded hands, given the willingness to pay of the “must have it at any cost” crowd.

2. Since then, premiums appear to be steadily coming down. This is both a consequence of supply and demand equalizing, and the effect of a more cautious approach taken by Buyers in a COVID-19 environment.

3. Last time I checked a few weeks ago, there were THREE LaF Aperta’s openly available for sale, and another two available privately. That is quite a lot of Aperta inventory for sale in the US considering only 201 customer/auction cars were produced GLOBALLY.

4. I have seen premiums come down to the point today where a serious Buyer with ready financing can most likely get an Aperta through a dealer in the low-$4’s. That’s still a healthy premium to MSRP, which was in the low/mid-$2’s for the most part.

5. I would not be surprised if LaF Aperta’s at some point within the next 12 months settle into the mid-$3 million territory before stabilizing. Over the medium/long-term, I do see these eventually heading back into the $4 mm territory, although much will depend on owner experience with the KERS battery (a mixed bag thus far), and Ferrari’s electrification strategy in general.

6. Looks-wise, while I find the LaF in both coupe and Aperta guise quite striking, it currently doesn’t seem to have the same level of appeal as other Ferrari supercars do. However, in taking a page from history, many found the Enzo at the time to be “weird,” with Bloomberg Businessweek at one point going so far as to call it one of the 50 ugliest cars in the world. Well, we can see where the jury has settled on it now, with the Enzo being almost universally regarded as one of the most striking and timeless Pininfarina/Ferrari designs ever. Perhaps people will warm up to the LaF eventually as well.

Those are my thoughts. Worth less than you paid for them.
