    i've seen a few 97s asking in the high 90s.

    they're out there. i don't know what drugs the gusy with 550s asking 145 are smoking - but maybe they'll share with the buyer as part of the high price ;-) .

    same rules apply, of course. recent service, full records, etc. they're out there.

    doody.

    I got a great one. spent a little on normal wear and tear items, but the car itself is a REAL bargain at under $100K. :)

    It may take a while to find the perfect car but my own direct experience during a 6 month search this year for a 550 suggests the following actual (not asking) prices from private parties and non-factory dealers:

    97/98's $95-105k
    99 $110k-115
    00 $120-125k
    01 $130-135k

    The assumptions tied to the above are: US car, Excellent interior/exterior condition and NO painwork, full service history with all records/books, RECENT T-BELT SERVICE, keys/tools, and, appropriate mileage for model year, i.e., under 27k for 97/98; under 22k for 99; under 17k for 00, under 12k for 01.

    BTW: It is absolutely worth the effort...

    the 97's can be had in the 80's if you negotiate with the buyer, they're just listed for $90's.

    There is a really nice yellow 550 on Ferrariads for $99k. I believe it will sell fast.

    Yellow 550s tend to sit for a long time. I actually like the color even on a 550, but many people dont. Go figure.

    I happen to love the yellow but I aggree it seems to be a bit dated on some cars. I think personally it comes off a bit flashy but then again what is a Ferrari.
