    Seen it on video before. It’s a cool build but they are asking way too much. For their asking price you can buy a stock 488 Spider and then buy and install all the aftermarket stuff yourself to exactly your taste, and still have tens of thousands left over. Why spend more money to get someone else’s taste?

    they are a local arizona company. I see them at all the local car shows. they do these types of builds. I am personally a fan but they are nice guys and they build cool cars if you like that sort of thing.

    They're builds are epic. Glad to know they are a nice group. Too bad they want all the mod costs and some...

    Just got word from the company that this car has a buyer already. Obbob earlier on this thread says it's waaaaay too much.......well guess what..... apparently there are a lot of people out there who will pay 400K for these builds. Wow..... Guess that's why this company has done so well over the years.

    You usually don't make money on aftermarket parts, if anything I'd rate this car as lower value than a stock car in perfect spec.... There was an almost brand new 488 for sale for 220k on this forum awhile back that just had performance mods like headers/exhaust/lowered suspension/ and wheels... Yet nobody wanted to buy that!

    It would have be quite the "unique" buyer to want to pay 400k for a regular 488 with abunch of aftermarket mods.

    Must be a wild business to buy supercars, throw on aftermarket parts, and try to sell for a profit... Good to see it working for this particular company but I'm almost in disbelief they're able to pull that off..

    Me too. But they've been pulling it off for a while and are still continuing to do so. It's some people out there who really don't mind giving them 400K......crazy.

    This particular car from the video sold awhile ago. They built another one Same specs and is now under offer. Crazy business model but great people behind it.

    I have seen this car a few times at a monthly car show at Ferrari of Scottsdale. It looks amazing and when it is next to their Novitec N-Largo 488 they make a stunning pair for sure.
