Still Looking for Red 456

I think that's going to be a tough find.

 

Is this what you have in mind?

Very nice but you are killing KentA now with this!!

 

You're right. That was cruel of me to send
this photo taken--I think--in Paris, France
in 2003.

 

It's a beauty, and it looks like sabbia interior.

 

If you're looking for bright red, the one pictured above is only the third one I've ever seen. The first was a sedan and the second was a cabriolet! If you want wine-red, you may have to fight me for it.

there was a red 456 rosso corsa in Canada with 12k 6speed 95'' (not sure but i think only red 456 in Canada) asking 140k-145k Canadian (120k US). Sold last couple months for full price. . . this shows how rare they are, to drive up such a price. Look on Canada part of forums for pics, SRY i dont have them right now)

 

There was a gorgous red one on ebay for a while. I believe it was in Palm Beach. Rossa Corsa/tan, manual. What a great looking car. Good luck in your search... patience is a virtue.

They re all in Australia!

 

those are nice cars but a right hand drive won't work well in N.A.

 

That's the car I was talking about in the first post in this thread!

 

You certainly don't see too many rosso corsa 456s, but speaking of odd colors, I did see a fly yellow one (6-speed) last Monday at Ferrari of Washington.

 

check on ebay, i spotted a yellow one and posted it on the forum a week ago because it was pretty rare to see a yellow 456

 

It was a customer's car so, as far as I know, not for sale.

 

I think the red 6 speed you refer to was at Auto Italia in Jupiter when I had my car serviced there. You can ask Vinny if it is for sale. His number is (561) 743-9331.

Bill, KentA is the one looking for the car, not me!

 

That yellow 456 at F WASH I've seen rolling down rockville pike a few times recently. Very nice car. Did a double take for it being the only yellow one i've seen. Personally i'd love it in red, forse perche sono italiano. But that's me.

 

in the UK, of the 141 RHD 456GTs, only 6 are Rossa Corsa, 2 are Rossa Monza. I believe their was 1 fly yellow.

of the 6 Rossa Corsa ones, I've seen four before settling on this one.... which is now mine.

Don't think either cars pictured are M versions though. The lights are different, I believe i.e. inset into the grill. Think you will find it hard to find a M manual, let alone red.

I've just bought a blue manual with tan hide. Pretty happy with it.

 

your correct, both are 456GTs.

The Modificato (M) versions have different front lights, bumper and bonnet (hood is US) - lost the lovely intakes, and is now made from kevlar, rather than steel/aluminum. See attached photo (sorry couldn't find a red one).

Of the 169 RHD 456M's sold in the UK, only 33 were manual, so they are probably very hard to find.

Here is one... not quite red though.

Not to sound naive, but couldn't you find the car you want, and have it painted red?
