I just took delivery!

I just took delivery of my Ferrari (very exciting). I really appreciate everyone's help and advice. Look forward to meeting some of you at the local events.

Here are the details:
1999 355 F1 Spider
titanium/black with silver stitching
16,000 miles
30,000 major service and new cats from Scottsdale Ferrari (2 months ago)
1 previous owner with all service records from Scottsdale Ferrari
HRE chrome wheels
challenge grill
upgraded Ferrari brand Hi/Fi
drilled rotor upgrade
tools, cover, manuals, etc.
new Pirelli P-zero's
No dash shrinkage, bubbling or bolster wear (how is this possible...wow)
Perfect condition all the way around (not so much as a hairline scratch)
Paid $98,000 (plus $250 shipping to Los Angeles)
I think this was a great price...what are your thoughts?

Great looking 355! Sounds like it is in great shape. Congrats and the best of luck with it. --tony

 

Sounds like a very good deal. How's the drive?


Forza,


Cavallini

 

The drive is amazing. I can't believe the attention this car brings. Its not for the shy or faint of heart. Love it! Tim

 

Listed price was 119 and you paid 98.. Sounds like you did good. Many of the listings on the DPR seem overpriced..

Nice choice btw.

 

Ya done good my friend, congratulations!

Dave

 

Beautiful. Hope you have a good time in it.

 

The car was listed at Scottsdale Ferrari for $119,900. After sitting on the floor for many months, it became stale. As opposed to lowering the price and cheapening the value of the other cars on the floor, they wholesaled the car to Diamondback Automotive Group in Scottsdale (apparently at a heavy discount). Diamondback immediatly ran an EBay auction with a "buy it now" price of $98,900 (they wanted to move it quickly). I negotiated a final purchase price of $98,000. Thats my story! Tim

 

Simply gorgous. Very nice car and good price too. Enjoy.

 

Love the color combination. With the money you saved, buy a Tubi or Capristo. Hands down the 355 with an aftermarket exhaust is the best sounding F-Car ever. My friend has a 355 with a tubi and the sound is intoxicating.

Do you like the silver floor mats? Would not be my first choice, but not bad.

PS, Glad you got the better of Scottsdale Ferrari...this time, but don't gloat, they probably made $40 to $50K over list the first time they sold it, then another $100K on the guy who likely traded it on a F-430.

 

Congrats Dude....

 

Silver floor mats are not my favorite. I will order a black set when I get an opportunity. Tim

 

Congrats and enjoy!

 

congradulations and enjoy

 

Congratulations!!

Beautiful car!!!

The wheels are pretty nice as well. I agree, the floor mats would look much better in black.

 

Congratulations. Sounds awesome! Hopefully you'll come by Calabasas on the 27th so we can see the car in person. If you ever want to go for a drive let me know, I'm in T.O.

Hi Jon,
I will stop by Calabasas on the 27th. What time do people generally arrive? Thanks, Tim

 

Congrats on a beautiful car at a great price! Enjoy!

 

Congrats. The 355 is a GREAT car.

 

WELL DONE ENJOY, NEVER LOOK BACK

 

That thing is frickin' bomb!! I love the wheels and the right rear 3/4 view would make a great enlargement to frame, in the living room of course. Tell your wife Jerrari said it was OK.
