    Hi...what do you consider "low miles" for a Barchetta?
    Best,

    There's a few on the usual sites (Hemmings, DuPont) right now. Those that have prices listed are between 280 and 400, with 8700 as the highest reported mileage.

    Worth pointing out the $280k car has an accident and branded title history.

    Thanks for the reply
    I’ve looked into the advertised cars
    Most euro spec and one at a Ferrari dealer with I think 14K miles that looks rough in pictures.

    I have a 4800 mile yellow with black interior. It took me 2 years to find a perfect unmolested yellow one and had to pay a premium to pry it away from the previous owner. She is all serviced and I even replaced the worn Lorica (suede) interior parts. I need to get high $400s before I would let her go.

    Just curious, how do the American spec versions differ from the Euro ones?

    I’m no expert but historically euro spec cars have been less desirable and thus cheaper to buy.
    So few Barchettas have been made so maybe not as much of a difference.
    Looking for a no stories car and in my opinion eurospec is a story.

    I am guessing more of the Euro ones got driven more.

    Just checked on the Euro websites. 8 Barchettas, no bargains for sure.

    A friend of mine has a red super america with less than 500 miles he would sell I'd that car doesn't work out for you. I think that super america is a stick though (the car at rm)

    I want the low miles F1 with delaminated top as a stick conversion project. If it doesn’t sell where I want to be I’ll message you.

    Good luck on the barchetta. It’s a pretty example. I love mine…

    Awesome car with off the charts looks.

    At local F events you do not see them every day.

    Super easy to make lane changes.

    True

    That car has no manual transmission. The manual transmission makes a difference with some enthusiasts.

    Yes. But it's just unbelievably sexy to look at. If both the SP1 and the F50 were introduced today to me, i dont know which one i would take. I love the F50 because of nostalgia but it took me a while to warm up to it and to adore it. The SP1 was just passion at first sight. And i have only seen 3 so far.
