    Exactly and that is not changing "but" there is a published letter from Ferrari the 296 SF90 family will not receive a tariff.
    At the end of the day - Pista Speciale Scuderia were all unlimited. The 16M is the only limited one of the group and only recently has risen.
    This is all too much brain damage - they will be what they will be.

    I believe the Speciale is getting the 8.5% surcharge. Someone posted a memo from Ferrari stating as much. The exception apparently only applies to the remaining GTB and GTS deliveries.

    Glad to hear that this can be removed.

    You say this can only be removed by special request. I wonder if they'll do it for a US customer?

    I bet these cars do fine value wise. The higher price will make them more exclusive
    charging sales tax on the tariff is truly wrong. that is being taxed on a tax.

    I also stopped by and saw a 12C sticker and the tariff charge was mid 40ks. Speciale will have a tariff added as of right now.

    I think you might be right. It will be interesting to see.

    It's technically not charged on the tariff, it's on the "tariff surcharge". This is a payment to Ferrari, not to the government. Ferrari could have built it into the MSRP instead of adding a surcharge (I'm glad they didn't). You can see why the tax man wouldn't want to distinguish between the two. You'd see manufacturers arbitraging that loophole.

    That said, I totally agree with you in spirit.

    3/4 layer paint is now $46k, up from $37k on 12Ci, plus $7800 for the painted black roof. A relatively restrained Aperta spec with 3/4L paint and just a few of the many carbon options will be in the very high 600s, or low 600s for a coupe (not including the tariff charge). Once you start going into liveries, tick a few more carbon options boxes, etc, it won't be hard at all to get into the 7s.

    I’ve anticipated $735k for Aperta to do it right but not crazy spec.

    Totally right. Some pricing adjustments but it's pretty much in the right neighborhood.

    Value proposition adds up to around $69,779 for options listed below:

    Racing & Track
    $10,124 -- RSCH - Carbon Fibre Racing Seats
    $2,607 -- RSES - Racing Seat Lifter
    ------------
    $12,731

    Exterior & Colors
    $7,931 -- CEL2 - ENGINE COVERS IN GLOSSY CARBON FIBRE
    $12,166 -- CEXD - REAR DIFFUSER IN GLOSSY CARBON FIBRE
    $1,738 -- EXAT - TITANIUM EXHAUST PIPES
    $7,821 -- FCWS - CENTRAL AND SIDE FRONT SPOILERS IN GLOSSY CARBON FIBRE
    $1,738 -- TIWN - TITANIUM WHEEL BOLTS
    ------------
    $31,394

    Interior & Materials
    $7,821 -- CIIP - DASHBOARD UPPER SURFACES IN MATT CARBON FIBRE
    $2,086 -- CISK - SILL KICK IN GLOSSY CARBON FIBRE
    $4,171 -- CITZ - FRONT TUNNEL IN GLOSSY CARBON FIBRE
    $5,214 -- LEDS - GLOSSY CARBON FIBRE STEERING WHEEL + PADDLES AND LEDS
    ------------
    $19,292

    Equipment and Travelling
    $4,843 -- ACC1 - FRONT RADAR WITH ACC [ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL]
    $1,519 -- PAR2 - FRONT PARKING SENSORS [REAR IS STANDARD]
    ------------
    $6,362
    Base Price of a 296 GTB - $338,255 + $69,779 (Speciale FOC Options) + $41,956 (Assetto Fiorano Kit) = $449,990
    AF kit changes the Door Panels in Carbon ($6,918 - CIPZ), Rear Console & Central Tunnel in Carbon ($4,171 + unoptionable value of rear console in 296 GTB/GTS), Upper Trim in Carbon ($TBD value for Speciale Option - Speciale comes standard with Alcantara here).

    With the values we know for overlaps in AF and Speciale options, GTB comparative AF spec is $438,091.

    Base Price on 296 Speciale - $470,000 so you're paying an extra $31,909 for the Speciale features.

    Folks quick question - If my Ferrari App says 296 Speciale "Waiting List" - does that mean I get a car :)

    Agree. Maybe Giallo Modena instead of Giallo Triplo Strato!
    Agree! That is a big increase in paint cost.
