Hi. If it’s helpful, I paid 137k for a 2015 with 13k miles w very similar options a month ago. So doesn’t seem too far off. Mine had sticker of 385k if that’s helpful.

Although miles are a little high for a 2016, it's a 2016! I'm guessing the sticker on this one would've been about $350k. It does have the panoramic roof, which not so many cars have. So I'm thinking $135-$140.... but the reality is, it's worth as much as you're willing to pay for it.

 

Very nice color combo and options, though I'm not crazy about owning a black car unless you plan on doing full PPF/ceramic coating. They are impossible to keep clean here in the desert.

I just bought my first Ferrari too (also an FF) and would suggest getting a VERY thorough PPI done even if it means paying the closest Ferrari dealer $1000-1500 to do it. My car was CPO'd and there was ~$20k worth of work that had to be done to bring it to CPO standards. One of those items was a $4600 bent wheel which probably would not have been found on a PPI anywhere else as they had to take the wheels off and attempt to balance them for the CPO, and one would not balance. That also led to them finding one leaking shock so they replaced both sides which is $7-8k I think.

You can also get two years of warranty for ~$6500 on a CPO car at a dealer (buy one year get one free), while this car won't have any remaining warranty so you would have to factor in that expense if you want some protection from catastrophic expenses.If you want the Ferrari warranty on a car from a third-party, you'd have to get it inspected at the dealer and pay any costs to bring it up to their standards, then you're looking at ~$6k per year.

Being a 2016, you will still have 2-3 years left of free maintenance which is nice and worth ~$5k or so compared to a 2012-14 that may not have any remaining free maintenance.

 

If the car has never missed a yearly service and passes inspection Ferrari WILL offer a The year warranty even if not purchased at a. Ferrari dealer

Yes but then it’s $12k for 2 years instead of $6k. I’m glad I went the CPO route.

 

Nope- I paid 7,5k for 2 years. 2013 car, 32k miles.

That seems odd. Why would they do that for a car not purchased at the dealer? The 2-for-1 gives them an advantage over third-party dealers. Doing that would negate that advantage. This is the first I've heard of that being possible for a non-CPO car.

 

Depends on your relationship with the dealer and the other f-cars you have you have in service with them.
Generally speaking IF the car is under warranty and passes inspection then wherever you bought it you can add 2 years.

I think the FF market is actually creeping up slowly from the bottom when Manish bought his for a ridiculously good deal. But with 20k miles, I agree it’s not worth the 140s unless it’s your perfect spec.

I have noticed that some of the cars listed around $100k get quickly snapped up by another dealer and then relisted for $110k. When I was looking a couple months ago there were a number of cars in the $110-125k range, now there are a lot less with most listings being $125k+. Supply has also dwindled, I remember seeing ~55 cars listed nationwide before and now there are ~30-35.

 

It says sale pending. Hopefully you didn't bite on this one. CMC isn't a very good dealer.

 

Which one did you wind up going with? I just bought one from Boardwalk (picking up next week).

The 2012 or 2014? Black one?

Nice any idea what the accident was on it?

Carfax shows it as an accident claim. I'd check the extent of the repair first, seen some crazy repairs on Ferraris done by random body shops

 

Good to know! That’s why it’s cheaper but good deal!

I actually drove that one. It was In great shape. Ultimately wound up getting a Rosso Maranello one. The interior was awesome on the one at Ferrari of SA.
