    If you are thinking about trading in your California T, or looking to move up or down market, I'm looking (well, actually my wife is) for a 2015-2017 black or white with red or tan interior (yes, I know the Italian...just figured I'd make it simple). Not looking to steal one, but not looking for collector edition or dealer retail either. We don't need a bank loan and would like to find something in the next few weeks. We're in Chattanooga, but travel and happy to fly where you are and take a look. Not looking for sticky buttons, torn seats, high miles or accident history (although none of those are automatically disqualifying). Repaired DCT would be a big plus, as would Magnaride...the more options the better (especially if they work). Service records helpful. Clean Carfax and title is expected. If you have one you think might be interesting...give a shout or shoot me an email. TIA

    I’ve got a 2016 in Grigio silverstone with tan interior that I’d consider parting ways with to buy a Portofino.

    I'll fly it by "she who must be obeyed". She has emphasized white or black but I think she was just trying to avoid red or something weird. Pics?

    Pretty car! I'd like to get more details. (Fair warning, the wife wasn't thrilled with the color) Miles? Any issues? Service records? Tires? What part of the world is the care in?

    Thanks so much...honestly I didn't even think about checking the dealer inventory. I did reach out, now three times, to the guy with the 2016 listed in the classified but...crickets. I suspect the dealers would at least be able to assure condition and be responsive. I'll look further.

    I may be parting with a Grigio T Porto for an M.

    I'm steadily nudging she who must be obeyed off of the white/black to expand the option horizon...maybe? Shoot me some info if you don't mind and I'll run it up the family flagpole. A Porto is further up the food chain than I had envisioned...but not out of the question.

    Hi Charles,
    I just joined because I saw your post and we are a very close match!!
    Our “Miss T” (Misty) is a 2017 Ferrari California T with Especialle Handling Package.
    She has approximately 16,300 miles and has through March of 2027 remaining on her transferable Ferrari CPO warranty. Drives great and looks like a dream! Everything works perfectly.
    I can’t figure out how to email you on this forum. Send me a message and if you would like to FaceTime we can show you the car!

    Hi Misstdriver, I may be interested in your car. Can you please tell me more about the CPO warranty? And how are you the original owner? Also, how much are you looking to sell the car for? Thanks,

    Well I can’t figure out how to pm you, so I’ll answer here. We aren’t original owners. The car has a warranty because we bought it CPO with a warranty from the dealer in March 2025, and the warranty is transferable. We’re looking for $155k.

    What an interesting journey this has become...what I thought was a simple "reach out into the universe and manifest a Ferrari" has become something of "Where's Waldo?" instead. Turns out that my lovely wife of 42 years has decided opinions regarding color...a trait I don't share (which is why she is in charge of decorating). Despite my entreaties regarding the custom Rossa Mugiello being a "rare" color and worthy of inquiry...she retorted that it wasn't "her" rare color and she would know it when she saw it. So we continue to explore. I do confess that I don't know the difference between Hermes and Louis Vuitton...or why purple doesn't match green, so I defer.

    You know, you can buy the right car with the correct options and the mileage and the service history you want and then have it wrapped in whatever color your heart desires, either with the regular wrap or a color-PPF film which is more expensive but also protects the paint beneath. There are shops that can really do pretty amazing job now. It's going to be harder to find the right car AND the right color if you want something unusual.
