Testarossa Price Trends

Last 20 cars only 12 have sold. I think the market is cooling for sure. Maybe the cars aren’t as good as they used to be on there.

 

Many people (reasonably) assume that Bat "curation" is about selecting the best examples, but
they sometimes turn down better examples, reserve or no reserve.


BTW - I found what appears to be the original listing on Pcarmarket for the 171 miles TR. It had 166 miles at the time and it was $615k.

The strange thing is that the DT Direct link listed it as 166 miles, but it had 171 miles at the Bonhams auction.
It does look like the same car, same year, colors, tires, front license plate support.

 

That is not a bit of dye getting rubbed off like a typical 16k car. It has so much wear that chunks of leather are gone!

Watch your wallets.

That car had a hard life.

This one's 13k.

How rare are fly yellow 84 to 91, pre 512TR? Is the red so common that it helps or hurts vs non red ones?

 

I think yellow isn’t as sought after on testarossas. 355s and 360s sure. But for us not too many out there.

 

Out of the TR, F355, and 360 I’d say giallo looks best on the F355.

Interestingly enough, however, is the fact that giallo F355s tend to get low numbers on resale and at auction compared to just about any other color save for perhaps argento.

 

The 365BB is awesome in the yellow boxer scheme. Great photography with a yellow TR:

Personally, I would have been panicking a lot less wear damage ago. That is some of the worst I’ve ever seen

FYI - books and tools not displayed but present.

 

So the 171 mile TR was RNM at $280k which is correct considering the ones that sold for $250k.

F512M at the RM auction:

Not far off the 25th Anniversary Countach with half the miles:

This popped up on CDN autotrader: https://www.autotrader.ca/a/ferrari/testarossa/burnaby/british columbia/5_56964654_20210318183214475/?showcpo=ShowCpo&ncse=no&orup=1_1_1&pc=V3Z 9R4&sprx=100&modalXS=1 CAD dollars but I think it is overpriced and I don't believe the reported mileage.

 

Looks to be pretty nice, although limited photos. seems overpriced at $300k CAD / $221k USD. Bolster wear does seem a bit much for the mileage but who knows.

 

The bolster wear has me questioning the mileage. It is overpriced for the states and Canada.

 

That green ‘86 on BAT didn’t even get to $94k.

Color!

 

Fantasy Junction now has the Green 86 from BAT on their site for $120k something.

The one I posted in Canada, the other day. Dropped the price to $260K CAD something. Getting more realistic.

 

Sale pending now.

That was painful to watch

 

People - if u want to abuse a car, get a vette.
More robust, plenty of handling and power and easier/cheaper to repair.

 

strong numbers at Mecum
