Can you guys give me advice on this spec and price? (or if anyone happens to know it's history) It's Rosso Corsa. It's a 2015. It has the CF racing seats It has front lifter. It has shields. Checks off everything I can think of. https://sanantonio.ferraridealers.com/en-US/a/used-ferrari/458-italia/ZFF67NFAXF0209923-1652724095869
I test drove that car at San Antonio ferrari, nice spec, the buttons are sticky and will need to be refinished. Seems priced about right.
I would not try to predict the market. If you love the car and it's the right one for the right price then buy it. They're great cars. You won't regret it.
Very nice car. I like the unique interior more than I would have guessed. No parking sensors or camera (which was more of a must for me). Price seems right in the current market (I would negotiate them taking care of the buttons RE: other reply)
Nice spec beside the lack of sport wheels and parking sensors. Not the biggest fan that the alcantara is red, but it is alcantara. Mileage isn't low but it isn't high either. I paid $205k for my 8k-mile 458 at the end of 2020. It was very similarly optioned, main differences are that mine has: Rosso Scud, Sport Wheels, Rear Parking Sensor, Black Roof. Seeing prices now, at $264k it seems fairly priced. The 458 market isn't super liquid like it is for "regular" cars. The car is really worth what someone is willing to pay for it. Would you be happy with this car for $264k? How close is it to the ideal spec for you? How long are you willing to wait for the "perfect" spec? How much are you willing to pay for the "perfect" spec? Only you can decide if $264k is the right price. I can assure you it's right for someone out there. Personally, I'm just glad I bought mine when I did. It's probably worth a lot more now than in 2020
Price is a little high but that seems true of everything these days. I just ordered and waited a year plus for a different car. It arrived completely out of spec. So my patience is a little short right now. I’d like a later model Rosso Corsa 458 with race seats so this one caught my eye. One year warranty is some piece of mind. Mileage I’m less concerned with. I plan to drive it a lot so higher mileage is preferred. I don’t really get too caught up in price trends. I might get hit by a truck tomorrow. I just like knowing I got a fair deal.
I put a deposit on this one yesterday: https://www.cauleyferrari.com/used-vehicle-2010-ferrari-458-italia-c-440/ Everyone here has been so helpful and inviting, looking forward to becoming a true member of the club. Can't wait until she comes home
Yeah, the car is in pristine condition, has all the options I wanted, fully documented with one owner, couldn’t ask for anything else. Ever since I was a kid I’ve dreamt about owning a Ferrari, finally realizing the dream.
Would you guys treat all model years equally? I’m trying to remember if earlier cars are more likely to have transmission issues.
It was explained to me that Ferrari re-programmed the ECU on the 2010-12 cars so that the shifting not as abrupt and thus cured most of the DCT issues. I have also been told by a local performance shop that *if* a 458 is going to have DCT issues typically it occurs before 40k miles.
Looks good. The standard seats are over bolstered. I recently had a chance to drive a Daytona and a F12 back to back. I liked the Daytona seats much better than the F12.
3 months ago, 92 458 Italias for sale in US. Today 69, most with >10k miles. Market continues to tighten.
Same for the Aperta's. Only a couple listed that I saw in the US currently. One just came on the market for 989+ www.dupontregistry.com/autos/listing/2015/ferrari/458--speciale--aperta/133729. Hope your projects are coming along according to plan.
Hard to believe that the early 458s are now 11 year old cars! One way to look at the math of potential service bills is to also consider the amount of future depreciation. If these cars aren't going to lose much value then maybe that should be taken into consideration. If you bought a brand new 200K car, would it lose value over the ownership experience?. If it were a new model Ferrari, the MSRP would be higher than the 458 and after 5 years would it have lost value ? How do those dollar amount losses compare with the 458 repairs? Obviously no one wants to pay expensive repair bills. But has the market has already weighed in on the 458 s reliability? Meaning that the cars are reliable and that is part of the reason for the demand and stable prices?
I'm on a soft 'educational' search right now. I'm not ready to buy, but I'm kinda feeling out what's available, pricing etc. There aren't a ton of options out there that check all the boxes, and I don't feel like I'm being overly picky. The 2010's and 2011's are sub 200k in a few cases. I'm tending to believe what others are saying which is that the DSG in all model years can fail(or be bullet-proof), but there are certainly lots of mentions that it happens 'more' on the 2010s and 2011s. Who knows. I understand why a 10k mile car lists for significantly more than a 24k mile car, but with all of the rock solid reliability claims, is a 30k mile well maintained car going to be mechanically just as reliable? Have we seen a handful of 50k+ mile cars to judge long term?
I have 48k miles on my car and currently dealing with transmission issues with Beverly Hills Ferrari. I purchased the car with 40k miles and spent some money on the car to take car of possible future issues. All new coil packs, charcoal canister and a few more other things that add up to around $27k including a major overhaul on the transmission with Ferrari. A well sorted high mileage car is more appealing to me than a lower mileage. I want to enjoy and drive it without concerns about mileage.
I have been blessed to own 3 458s. 2010 Italia, 2012 spider traded for 2015 Spider. Over the last 3 years between the 2010 and 2012 drove over 36,000 miles. No issues at all. Pure bliss. But I preaching to the choir. BUY IT DRIVE IT. MY latest purchase. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
