Quick question, as I'm continuing to hunt for my 296: How critical is the front-end lift, or it's fine without as long as one takes inclines at an angle? Thanks.
Depends on where you live and how driveways and entrance to places you visit are. Here in Tampa FL I never really use my front lift on my F8 and my 488 never had one. Some people need the lift.
Anyone seeing any good GTB deals recently? All the sub 300 ones seem to have vanished quickly from the authorized dealers lol. Maybe 290-299 is the floor
Here is the authorized website sorted for lowest price. 141 total to choose from. Lowest is 304,550. As for deals, a bunch of these are great deals and can't imagine these depressed prices continue on for much longer. https://preowned.ferrari.com/en-US/r/north-america/used-ferrari/usa/296-gtb/rfcm?z=price-asc
If you replace gtb by gts, the lowest price is $369,890 - so the gts are significantly more expensive. I wonder what the arrival of the Speciale will do to the market.
Everyone receiving VS is not required to keep 296 - with XX hold SF90 til XX arrives. VS likely 12 - 30 months away, market should swallow up the inventory. There is not another rear engine to order. Dealer offered me 425 on GTS - around 100k loss. Consign 475k - sell around 450s an lose 6% to the dealer. My 16M list was 355k 2009 Special list 406k 1015 - 296 is imo a steal vs SF90 no idea why the delta.
