    Must admit I prefer the looks of the Tin Top….They would have been much nicer as a GTS IMO..

    Nah. That doesn’t really work for mine.

    The Barchetta looks better, but neither of them are better than the Maranello.

    But, $1m? Lol. That blue 488 Spider (with shields added) is a far better looking and far better car every day of the week.

    This car has been through three dealers in two states over the last 18 months. It is the lowest spec’d car I have ever seen. The minimalist spec kind of works. At the right price it will sell, but not until then. FNS in Sydney couldn’t move it at $450k

    That is surprising. I’d buy it for the right price if I wasn’t already committed to something else.
    I like that spec. Acres of carbon fibre does nothing for me.

    It was an interesting car. In the metal it all worked, with the blue & silver minimalist look, but on paper the lack of shields and LED steering wheel would turn people who had not sat in it away. I liked it.

    CF as a pretend race-car effect does nothing for me either, but it's better than grey plastic, which 488's have in their cheap & nasty interior - it doesn't feel remotely exotic.

    Yeah I was damn lucky. I don't think its sold in all that time. It was being sold privately at Ascot, when I looked at it, then did a stint at Ferrari Brisbane, then in Sydney. It may have sold but it had high 30k kms on it when I looked at it.
    $50k of course :)

    And of course, that's what all smart buyers ask first.

    Smashed to bits? Whom cares. :eek:

    Oh, it’s that car.

    It is on PPSR, unbelievable that an authorised Ferrari dealer would list it.

    Thought it would have been to old for a dealer to list?

    I’m sure they will find someone that doesn’t do their due diligence and part with the cash..
