Taken Off Market 2013 458 Spider

Depends who you get reviewing your listing. They rejected me on a 1 owner car that they list regularly, low miles and at no reserve. HOW?

 

Appreciate the update; will look for it on the site today

 

It’s up!

 

She's up there - GLWTA!

 

All the best on BaT as it appears your listing is off to a great start there.

BTW, love the traceability aspect of FChat for those of us that are big into documented history & lineage. Helps that you have personally owned it for 4 years so props on the credibility.

White 458 spiders are amazing looking.
I’m thinking about getting another one and I’m torn between red and white!

 

Hard to believe that number on Bat!

$191k is not a trade in number. I can assure you trade in is less.

It may not be what the seller wanted, but it's the number today and likely the highest number seller will see on the car in the near term. This is the risk of owning an exotic with almost 30k miles on it. I would have taken the $191k and moved on. Silver (or any shade of it) for whatever reason is also a color that doesn't bring top $$$ on Ferrari's.

The other issue now is whoever buys it will google the VIN and see that BaT result. I would try to get a bidder to buy it off there, sell it, and move on. Other option is to hold until spring, but I don't think seller will see much more, and honestly, if he did, it won't be much more than if you took the $191k today and stuck it in a 6-month CD.

 

I sold a 29k mile black 458 with a 330 sticker this time last year for 195k. I think time of the year matters quite a bit as the aforementioned white 2013 that sold for 217 wasn't materially 20k better than mine, nor is it 20k better than this auction from what I can tell.

 

I saw that one sell as well and was somewhat surprised at the huge price delta between your auction and that one, certainly the mileage and color helped push that one over the top.

 

I think certain buyers have started paying up a premium for unique specs/colors instead of the normal red/white/silver/black/etc. When you live in SoCal or other places, do you really want to be another red 458? Those that answer no will pay up for a blue 458.

 

The sticky buttons are so bad. I was quoted $11k to sand everything down and refinish it. And re-laser and paint the word labels.

 

I was watching that one.....that's nuts!

You may miss the 458.

 

Meh , you’re gonna love the 488. Don’t look back , I thoroughly enjoyed mine. Have the dealership unplug the valves. The sound is amazing. Best , Kirk.
