The F50 Thread

Yes well no one has to share their collections so I'm appreciative of anyone who does, and social media is an easy way to amplify that. No real better or worse way to do it, IMO, just different.

 

No worries at all, I wasn't suggesting you were and your explanation makes perfect sense. He is loaded (read really rich) btw, the car channel is more a pension fund for him I suspect.

He's my favourite as well, along with his buddy who actually works on the cars.

 

Wow that's quite the Beaut, wish I could take it for a spin but don't think I can afford the 5000 or bucks a mile in depreciation

 

I know it's serviced every 2 years (thank god) but on any given day, do you mind me asking what would need to be prepped to get it roadworthy? Or is it ready to go at all times?

 

Thanks for the question, i will post an answer in the 288 forum link

 

Unfortunately the owner will not separate any cars out, attractive individual offers have been declined. None have tax paid anywhere, so your price estimates can be shaved a bit.

 

One week to go, what are the predictions? https://www.artcurial.com/en/lot-1996-ferrari-f50-4134-162

 

€3.7 Mill.
Give or take 50Cents

 

They're est. 2.7-3.5m €, but I would assume it may go above that, no? The one RM auctioned in Paris went for 3.5m€ & that model had 12.7k km on it compared to this being listed 'as-new'.

 

€4.3m: See post #3374, 25th Feb.

 

;-)

 

Speaking of, here's 50 in our client's F50 104262, later sold by Joe Sackey Classics.

Thanks for the responses all, predictions range from 3m Eu to 4.3m Eu, let's see what happens.

 

I never saw the show so I don't know, however the F50 he was filmed with was made available by our client who was a neighbor and the original owner of the car from new till we sold it to a collector.

 

only a discerning collector has an F50 and a Pontiac G6

 

Back on track, the super-low miles 106765 which we've sold to our Beverly Hills client, a nicer F50 I have not yet encountered.
