This 599 GTO in matte dark silver (I don't know the exact name of this color) looks stunning: https://www.facebook.com/PatriceMinolPhotography/photos/a.270005146444312.55874.265379740240186/685879504856872/?type=1&theater

I'll say this publicly as I don't think this GTO is for me (or my friends interested in a GTO). FYI - I spoke to F of SLC last night. The GTO is technically NOT for sale yet, but the management is considering selling it. The $448K MSRP is unusually low for a GTO and this is clearly a very lightly optioned US spec GTO. In fact other than the racing livery its pretty much a stripper car. I'd also say the color spec, while far from unique, is a bit unusual (although still a beautiful GTO). From what I could glean from the salesperson, if it does get put up for sale (a big if) the final sales price will be at least $600K. A year ago the price would have been $550K. The F of SLC sales guy said if it was put up they'd be looking at a minimum of a $600K sales price - and he was pretty adamant about that. I think in current market conditions $600K is reasonable with the caveat re: minimalist options. Personally, I like a highly optioned car with all of the goodies, particularly the carbon stuff, but thats just my personal taste. When springtime hits in full swing there should be at least 7-10 US spec GTO's for sale (both publicly and privately) and hopefully the PP's will keep moving the yard stick up. Better to have a slow methodical move up the PP chain then to bubble these cars (ie. like 575SA prices which basically doubled in 1 year). If prices move up $50K per year that works for me and is sustainable. Obviously there will always be outliers with respect to PP, but IMHO the very low MSRP of this car offsets, at least in part, the zero mileage angle. What does another $40K-$50K in options from the factory do for the resale value of a GTO ? I'm no expert, but I'd think the marketplace will answer this question pretty quickly.
That would be me with Manuma last weekend at Spa and the Ring! The colour is Grigio Silverstone Opaco
Hopefully next time then! I saw Manu's new videos and they are highly entertaining as usual...especially when he does his best to make you crash his car!! BTW, was it your GTO on that EVO head-to-head with the GT2 RS a few years ago (front cover issue)?

No, funnily enough that car was Manu's brother car! Mine is same colour but with black wheels and black leather interior...his had lighter wheels and red alcantara interior!
The issue with whoever buys it will be to drive it or not...ultimately defeats the purpose of owning one unless pure investment purpose...
I concur. Whomever purchases this GTO will likely just store her away in their collection. A GTO with less than 100 miles on the odometer is by all accounts a fairly good investment. Its kind of amazing that the car was never driven/registered. That takes some serious will power ! Its also sad because its such a great driver.
