Mine was in the port from March 28 to May 20. Just left port - was status 92 in the morning and 93 in the afternoon. Expecting to see it next week.
Mine arrived at the Dealer last Saturday, they delivered it yesterday. I immediately put 50+ miles on it! This is the best driving model I've owned. Not putting down any other model, and reasonable minds may differ, but IMO Ferrari really did create a model that is "fun to drive," (not that others aren't, there's just something special about this car). Interestingly, I've spoken with one person selling his GTB, and the head of sales at a dealership, and both indicated most available listings for the 296 were people expecting to roll them for a profit, and never intended to keep the car regardless of it's performance, including the owner I spoke with about his listing. The dealership thinks there were a large number of speculators in the early sales that misjudged the number that would hit the market at the same time, and as some numbers dropped, other owners quickly listed. Basically they hurt themselves. The owner I spoke with was honest, he said he initially tried to find reasons he could state publicly regarding his decision to list his GTB, but in the end these were minor and fixable, and he admitted it was not a car he intended to keep, he was hoping for a quick profit. Some of those comments had me reconsidering my purchase at one point, but I'm glad I waited to see for myself. Now I just have to get those 600 miles posted to really run this car!
There are a large number of Ferrari aficionados who will never accept a 6 cylinder hybrid as a true Ferrari. Fortunately, there are a number of forward-thinking folks who believe this is the future and the reviews are stellar. I drove a 2023 296GTS that had nothing but problems. The check engine light came on 3 time in two months. The gas tank flap opened while driving the car. The sway bars made so much squeaking that it sounded at times like a jalopy. But I assumed those issues were the result of being one of the first off the line and the fact it was originally a demo with 900 hard miles on it - probably no real break in period. I traded that car for an F8 temporarily and ordered a new 296GTS because the car was amazing if you got past the issues. I assumed Ferrari would fix the issues and create a much better version. Many of the GTB owners, as mentioned were speculators and disappointed but many of them traded the GTB and ordered the GTS. The GTS has held its value much better, and with the introduction of the Speciale, experts expect the value to go up on all base models as well. I intend to fully enjoy this car and am excited for its arrival late this week or next. With the haptics addressed somewhat with the new steering wheel, I am assuming the diehards will eventually come around. Even if they don't I believe this may be the best Ferrari on the market. So take heart, my fellow GTS owners. I believe you made a wise choice, either for the mere driving experience or for the investment value.
I have owned a 2015 458 Spider, a 2020 F8 and a 2024 296 GTB….now a 2025 296 GTS….and I agree with several previous posts that this is the most fun and fastest Ferrari that I’ve owned. Incredible machine…and to me the GTS with the top down just takes the driving experience to another level… I could not be more satisfied!
Still nothing….wonder if anyone has recently gotten a gts here, feel like everyone is still delayed? to Those who received in last 30 days, how did final msrp compare to the original order price?
Mine is on a truck, expected in a few days. MSRP was 368134 for base and options seemed the same price as quoted with a couple exceptions. CF rear splitter was about $300 more. Mostly the same. I kind of went overboard with options and that added $165K to the total. There is also a $5000 delivery, processing, prep and handling fee.
My GTS, delivered 4 days ago, it came in about $6,000 higher than my original order price. Typical of Ferrari orders that take almost 2 years to deliver.
On recheck, I believe that is correct, so only had about $1K added, I haven't spent any time trying to find the increase.....to busy driving the car.
Mine went 30 in November and I should be getting the car this week (8 months from status 30). Not sure if 8 weeks in the port is standard or not at this point! But I would say 6 months from 30 is more likely than 4.
That top down is nice - rear center window down is perfection. You can hear every touch of the throttle / shifts / blips - was not a fan of this car, now 100% Only downside - it and SF90 ruined me on the Ferrari coupes!
End of year is what I'm hearing. Maybe November, probably December. Admittedly, I'm not sure if it clears factory before summer break. My last one stalled at Stage 70 for months and months.
Arrived today after 2 months at the port! Currently undergoing dealer PDI for delivery tomorrow. Color is BLU Elettrico with grey interior. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
That usually means your car is at Status 90 , I got my pic after I took delivery which was 3 months after the car left Italy.
