Price Check 360 2004 spider

My gosh, who in the world did the paint work, God himself? Seems crazy high when most front bumper resprays should be close to $1k. Car needs cam belt change, and miles are high. 90-95k depending on options, but I would look for a lower mile 2002 or newer.

 

I'd say high 80s. It is a 04, but it does have 30k on it. Going to need belts done too. Add another 3-4k for that.

 

Whatever about the 2009 respray the bill for the 2007 work suggests that there must have been damage repaired. That of itself doesn't make it a "walk away" car but maybe not being told the truth does? Is it still in the same owner's hands? Has he an explanation for $10k worth of paint to front bumper and rockers?

 

......this one I presume?

Front bumper/rocker respray doesn't cost anywhere NEAR $9500. Either the customer was way overcharged (insurance claim maybe?) or there was more work done.

In regards to whether there are multiple white ones - I know of one other white 6spd spider that was for sale a year or so ago with about half the miles, also at a dealer in Cali.

There are also two white F1 spiders that I know of personally (I'm sure there are more). One is a white with blue/black interior with about 15k miles (potentially for sale - I just spoke with the owner the other day), and the other one was a Dubai VIN (same vin sequence as US cars but still seen as a gray-market car to most people) car that used to be owned by an Fchatter - 2004 white/black F1. I'm not sure where this car is now.

 

I just bought an F1 04 spyder for 105K. Had 17k miles and some after market stuff like sterio and carbon fiber. I then proceded to have a major service done and new brakes because I wanted it in as good a shape as possible even though they were not technically due.

Based on my experience I would say high 80-mid 90's for the car pictured. You will pay a bit more for a dealer car. A nice balance may be 100K with the belts changed out.

I also mentally prepare to spend 5-10 percent of purchase price on immediate maintance needs which allows me to get the car as mechanically sound as possible, and limits the heartbreak if there is a problem that shows up.

 

See my post above. There are at least 3 others (one other 6spd and 2 F1s)

 

You are correct. Not the only one. Nice sales tactic if you believe it

 

Somewhere in the $90's, probably 90-95k. IMO $80's would be an exc buy, $100's too much given needs a full service and has higher mileage.

I looked hard for 6 months and bought an 04 spider in Aug '11 (red/tan 3 pedal 15k tubi 430 wheels, just completed full service plus brakes before I bought it, had clean history, all docs, service history, all keys fobs codes tools etc. exc shape). Paid $100K from an individual. I suspect it would have been more from a dealer. It's lots of fun. Take ur time and get the one you want... they aren't going anywhere and only going down in price. U r the buyer in a buyers market. Don't settle.

 

Beautiful car. UAE gets USA spec'ed cars. Enjoy.
