    The time has come to look at letting this car go, hopefully to another collector and I am of the opinion this presents a very unique opportunity to acquire a unique example.

    How unique, well this is car 448 of 448. The first owner took delivery at the factory and there are pictures confirming this.

    It is also one of a reputed 42 RHD examples and thus could be considered the last manual V12 Ferrari convertible made.

    It has everything including the original invoice, helmets, cover and the condition is immaculate with the usual small patina on the mouse hair dashboard. The car has full Ferrari service history and comes with all books, radio code, spare keys etc.

    Current millage is around 8000 km's.

    The car is currently located in South Africa and shipping and logistics would be for the buyers account.

    Based on the current market for these cars and the unique opportunity this presents I believe this car to be reasonably priced at $500k (GBP410 000).

    Lot's of Ferraris are called unique, but that one is unique at another level. GLWS

    Thought so… Thanks. It’s really moving up my list of favorite FCar colors. Out of my budget on this one though.

    I am a big believer in these cars.

    One day people are going to wake up and realize that there arent any v12 manual Ferraris under 1 million dollars.

    The market on these seems to be somewhat difficult to read at the moment. Spent some time driving it last week, it really is a great car, V12, manual is a very rare combination now in the sort of "modern classic" category.

    I think it is unquestionably priced fairly considering the production number. It's not outrageous given the mileage, color, and condition even without that. But this is the last production manual V12 spyder that Ferrari ever made. You may be underpricing it in that lens.

    You share my sentiment. It would seem the market is fairly limited though....which while not correct I cant but help look at the prices of cars which were not individual numbered.

    Need to add the word convertible to be accurate.

    This car will do very well in the future and is priced really well.

    And as soon as people realize this, a car like my Lamborghini Diablo Roadster will take a huge leap in value also, as it also adds the mid-engine component.

    Hands down the best looking and most collectable Ferrari since Enzo passed.

    It has everything in a modern package. V-12, manual transmission, open top. What else could you want? It epitomizes everything Ferrari used to be.

    I always call the 512 BB the last analog Ferrari, I may start calling the 550 Barchetta the last good looking Ferrari. The lines are perfect from any angle.

    They are great cars for sure, the problem when I had one in the UK was I spent more time looking at the sky than the road, with the nightmare roof, if you can call it a roof!
    Then [TDF blu) and now, Grigio Alloy M.
    Your car looks fantastic Jacques, if I was in the market for one I would be in touch. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
