    Not seriously. Judging from the condition of the suspension bushings, certain perishables and interior I think it has an honest 46,000 on it.

    Not quite sure how to poll on this.

    The odometer is showing <1000, but I know it's been round the clock at least once!

    From trying to keep informed about price trends & resale value, it seems that mileage is a very important factor with respect to resale value assuming that service has been performed. Comparing several of the same model Ferrari's in similar condition, with similar service history, the lower mileage cars sell for significantly higher prices. In speaking with fussy potential buyers, 9000 miles for pre 360 Ferraris seems to be the physcological number for paying/realizing a high price for the vehicle compared to higher mileage cars. Anything more than 10K miles seems to scare away buyers who will pay top dollars for the car. While some say that a car has to be driven to keep it in good shape, the market place as a function of resale value tells a different story. A low mileage car can be kept in perfect shape provided it is driven on a consistant basis just long enough for the car to get within ideal operating temperature range.
    That said why buy a Ferrari & then worry about excessive driving mileage- I say just enjoy the thing as it could all end tomorrow
