    Back by popular demand (I hope), I am putting this rare beauty back on the market. I have all maintenance records, Carfax, covers, tool box, air pump and even a fire extinguisher. The only after market item are the tire valve stems. I have plenty of other pictures for those interested. It is located in Pensacola, Florida but I can haul it to Orlando or Atlanta for an additional inspection if buyer requires. 90.5% clutch wear as of December (was 91% in July), and only 450 miles driven since then. Never seen a track and always garage kept. I am the second owner. Auto check Score 94/100. No accidents.

    Option include: Ferrari Shields, Carbon Fiber Interior Trim, Electronic Seats, Carbon Fiber Center Console, Daytona Seats, Ceramic Brakes (an option in 2007), Premium Sound and many others.

    Yes it is purple, but really it depends on the lighting. I often get TDF Blue comparisons but as I have been told many times from people who see it, "Purple" does not do it justice. It is a head turner, which to be honest, I think we all like deep down. It is the only F430 painted in Italy by Ferrari in this color. Plenty of FChatters know this vehicle and me.

    You have to look really close (or hand wash it yourself) to notice that there are 16K of miles worth of very small paint imperfections on the very front (not the hood) in and around the nostrils. I have had Ferrari of Central Florida re-inspect the vehicle in December and also to fix the common exhaust bracket problem. All original parts remain on the vehicle.

    Serious inquiries only please. I waited to re-post in the spring to hopefully inspire a unique color car owner or an LSU or University of Washington alumni to imagine being behind the wheel of this car with the top down.

    List Price: $127,500

    Pete, what is the actual name of the color? Or was it truly a one off paint to sample?

    It is a PPG color purple. I have the color code after much research. It is 666060 or "purple" as the sticker says. There was a sample given to Ferrari when it was ordered and that was the color they matched and then painted the vehicle with. The code was nowhere to be found on the vehicle, just the "purple" sticker so after about a year of looking and having it shot with paint color determination guns, they all matched. Ferrari purple PPG code 666060. The original owner was nice enough to pass me the first three digits but it was a six digit code after all.

    Thanks for the positive feedback! Without proper maintenance, and proof of it, I quickly became schooled on value and proof of value.

    Oops, typo above. Yes, 90.5% clutch life remaining! So lets just say 90% remaining-10% used. My bad.

    The Flying Purple People Eater! I remember when Kevin brought it when it was brand new to "Ferraris on 12th" (one of the pics above). It's certainly very unique!

    The color was originally selected to match the university of washington's purple. I first had wheels on a yellow 355 this same color and then decided to make the whole car this color. The hardest part was figuring the best interior color, but it works well. I drove it to San Diego and while passing through la, I got quite a few people who'd asked if it was colored for the lakers.

    The creation of the car was sort of chronicled here at fchat: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/northwest/114039-purple.html

    Hey T,
    Yes, it is still available. Thanks for the color feedback. It is definitely something better seen in person.
    I have not taken it for the annual service yet. I was planning to do it in about 3 weeks if it hadn't been sold yet. It isn't due for another month or so and it got two different checkups in November and December. Thanks for the interest and feel free to PM me if you want any information on the vehicle.
    Pete
