    So I was at Legendary Motor Car to check up on my 512BB
    Here is the latest inventory list if anybody is interested.

    They also have a 2001 550 for 89k with 5500 miles. Red

    I am thinking about it. What do you think of the price.

    I'd go with the red '73 455SD Trans Am or one of those Oldsmobiles, the Hurst or the 442 Convertible....

    No, j/k.... that 's not a bad deal on the 550 but there's a LOT of nice ones out there right now....

    Because even though they are virtually the same, there is a ~15% Stigma attached to non US cars.

    With all due respect, my research shows that most US Ferraris can be purchased for less than Canadian Ferraris even after exchange rates(CND vs USD), duty of 6.1% and GST of 5%(sales tax) are all taken into account.

    ....until you throw in that "real world" factor when you know the parties involved and/or witness actual deals taking place...

    I think it is likely Canadian cars sell for more in Canada, and American cars sell for more in the US. So you are both right.

    Like I said, with all due respect: I speak from actual experience and research. I can buy most US Ferrari for less money after factoring all my expenses and still come out ahead in Canada. It just takes patience and the right deal to come along. Take a look at our Autotrader.ca listings to check for yourself.

    Domenic- Worked for me. Those prices are atrocious, even in $Cdn.

    They could be asking 25K for that Ingrid car and that would be too much.

    I never thought I'd see the day when a Maranello would make me cringe but alas, today is that day! :(:(
