Ferrari F40 market analysis

This is going to be a museum piece. Buyer will send to get Classiche cert in Maranello, it will be restored, and sit forever.

 

Car was stored in a shipping container sitting outside?

 

This car was acquired by GT Motor Cars last year and they sold it and had it Cavallino this past year. This car is a great reference car.

 

That’s correct, they bought it from my partner from Germany.

wonder what this will do to the trajectory....

 

this is the peculiar car, whatever the result I don’t think it will affect the values of well preserved examples if I had to guess

 

the reason i am curious is because it is a car with a story....has been repainted....is reportedly in condition 3 according to Hagerty themselves, but is still listed with a guide price range with an upper level at $3.1 million,,,,which, last time i checked, is a bigger number than $2.50 or $2 mil, where cars of this nature have been claimed to be valued in this thread....
of course, if this car fails to reach a $3 handle, then all those claiming that the F40 mkt is in decline may have an additional data point...

 

I think this car will bring low to mid 2s and of it does, it won’t tell us anything about the F40 market which to me seems perfectly healthy.

If I’m wrong and the car brings $3m because someone falls in love with the car (unlikely in my opinion), I don’t think that will tell us anything either other than the value of this particular car on that particular day.

I’d make the same comment by the way about the non-running 300km car.

Let’s see 2 or 3 results for low owner 3,000-5,000 mile US cars and a few sales on under 10,000 km non cat, non adjust euro cars and that will give us a picture of where the market is.
