    Hi guys,

    I understand that this is a long shot since I have waited 5+ years for a car to come up for sale with no luck. Here goes anyway: I am in the market for a light blue 550 Barchetta. If anyone knows of a car in the US or Canada I would genuinely appreciate any leads. I'm willing to continue waiting, but hope it's not another 5 years before I find my car.

    Many thanks.

    I might look at the registry in Nathan’s book….wonder how many were delivered to the US in light blue? Can’t be many?

    Light blue? What are the real paint colors you are looking for?

    This was for sale when I was looking for one back in 2017 or 2018. Beautiful car. Had like 10k miles on it. Interesting choice of seats, Daytona. I ended up buying my yellow with black interior.

    Taz: long time no see. My preference is Grigio Alloy. Azzuro California would be alright as well, but Grigio Alloy is my preference. Would be very grateful for any leads.

    To the best of my knowledge there are at least four Grigio Alloy cars in the US, and an equal number of Azzuro California cars. So perhaps eight total, but likely more since I’ve get to find any registry with a complete accounting for all serial numbers.

    I have spoken with them about this exact car since I love the color, but two years is a long time to wait to bring it back to the US.

    Two very pretty colors. Good luck and I will keep my eyes open. Eight possibilities over here is not too bad.
