    I am looking for a 812 SF in Black or Girgio Silverstone with less than 5K miles.

    I'm very surprised you haven't found one yet....there always seems to be at least 1 or 2 GS's for sale.....are you looking for a very specific build?

    It took me 3 months to find one that was the right spec and clean. I think many folks are holding them as the 12 cylindri is very polarizing and with the base price and the tariff surcharge announced the difference in price is insane.

    I been looking as well, but very few really nice cars on the Market. The problem with the Used ones even at the Ferrari Dealerships are they are never the exact specification. I am looking for. a basic Rossa Corsa with Tan or Cuoio interior (either racing seats or full electric with daytona inserts) with under 5k miles. Anyone know of a car like this available please DM me. Thanks.

    The Nashville GS over Curio is absolutely beautiful. I had the opportunity to drive an 812 with racing seats recently—while they’re impressive, they felt a bit too stiff for my taste in a GT car.

    I also saw the Nero/Bordeaux spec from Fort Lauderdale. It looks sharp, but I’m not sure I can quite pull off a Bordeaux interior myself (to be honest, I haven't seen Bordeaux in person).

    Really appreciate all the links and suggestions—thank you all!

    Nero/Bordeaux is a great color combo

    I have learned looking for the exact spec will ensure you miss out on the experience of owning. Sometimes you have to adjust what you want......

    I’ve missed out on a few cars, and I think prices have edged up while I’ve been chasing the perfect spec. I’ve loosened up on some details, but when it comes to the exterior and interior colors—I just can’t bring myself to compromise. They matter too much to me.

    Prices on some models have definitely edged up. I was gonna go from my Lusso to an 812 and which were in the 300-350....now they are 350-400....I always have a couple interior and exterior colors as options as long as they aren't something crazy

    You are correct, I was fortunate to get pretty close to what I wanted at a Local Ferrari Dealer.

    I was in the exact same position, better to pay a bit more and get exactly what you want. Patience is a virtue.

    In autumn 2021 i had the luck to get an 812 SF in my perfect spec, except glossy black rims (an easy change).
    And the best, it was a brand new 2019 model with 125 Km on the clock, very fair priced, private car from a (now) 93 year old ex Ferrari dealer.

    Patience and a little bit luck.

    @Mrwatchdawg that GTS is gorgeous—thanks for sharing! Sadly, it's a bit out of my budget.

    Did the Porsche Experience Day over the weekend got some wheel time in both the GT3 and the Turbo S. The GT3 was pure mechanical joy, razor-sharp and addictive. But instead of scratching the itch, it made me want the 812 even more. I know, totally different beasts, GT3’s a track scalpel, the 812’s a front-engined V12 spaceship—but that naturally aspirated Ferrari wail just won’t leave my head. The 812 itch? Yeah, it just leveled up.

    Patience mode: engaged. Just waiting for luck to throw me a bone.

    Interesting that you mention this, I had sold my 2022 Perfect GT3 Touring 6 Speed to buy my 296 GTS. When I sold the GTS, I was on the hunt for a GT3 again and bought a 2023 Touring (not as well specced as my 22) missing a couple items back in April. It still did not end my itch for an 812, and I finally found the right 812 right here at my local dealer.

    @oc23 GT3 was PDK. I’m guessing you meant to ask about the Turbo S? It’s ridiculously fast and super capable and not to mention comfortable, but on track it felt a bit heavy, not nearly as sharp or connected and involving as the GT3. And the engine note wasn’t nearly as raw or mechanical either.

    @Senna1994 That absolutely reenforces my itch for an 812 even more so now! Sounds like you've had quite the enthusiast’s journey, and I’d love to hear more about your 812 experience. It’s such a special machine in every way.

    Enjoy that V12 masterpiece in good health!

    Yeah that's what I meant, messed up the wording. Cool thanks, I'm planning on doing the same this summer at the Porsche center. (GT3 and Turbo S)
