One last word: Even though Mannheim is a dealer auction, it has been my experience that the auction prices for exotic cars are retail. There is a lot of proxy buying going on.

Like I said, I'd consider these to be retail prices.

I don't know the condition on the 95 355 Coupe, but getting close to $60k for a car with almost 30k on it doesn't sound too far out of line. Maybe it needed a service, who knows?

Dale

 

It can always be worse. What was the sticker on a 2004 Phaeton?

Dale

 

Yikes!

What about the 2004 Lambo G car? I don't follow these cars (because I don't fit), but weren't they $180 or there abouts new?

Dale

 

Tru dat. But you do get real retail numbers from Manheim, unlike the junk you get from other sources.

Dale

 

I agree. I owned a 2004 Spyder that I brought and sold for $65K. However, I'd love to buy the car back at, say, $45k. They really are fun cars. Maserati/FNA just screwed up by setting the initial MSRP too high.

What about the 90 TR for $58k? Is this the market for these cars?
