F50 Price

Let us start with the 60k km F50 sold at RM in Munich.
Hammer: €4.3m. Add for the first 200k: 15% plus 19% VAT, and thereafter 12.5% plus 19% VAT you get €4,945,575 (the published data is misleading as it ignores the VAT payable - as if it’s not real money paid by the buyer on site).

Given the unusually-high 60k km mileage of the car, you will pay a premium of 25% or 30% to get to an average-low mileage of 8k km similar F50. The later will be at £5.4m to £5.6m.

 

Spot on, people often overlook the VAT and buyer’s premiums, which really add up. €4.95m is the real out-the-door cost, and the mileage premium on these high-km F50s is huge. Even at 60k km, it’s a solid car, but the low-mileage examples always command that extra 25–30%. Makes you appreciate how rare sub-10k km F50s really are.

 

These F cars have moved on, you are now looking at 10 million plus US for a perfect F50 or 288 GTO..

Gallery Aaldering in the Netherlands currently proposes a European F40 (with 10,598km) for €3.3M - I wonder how it would cost to make a perfect example from it; if less than €1M it should be a bargain

 

These cars are only original once.. they are the ones that everyone is chasing.. anyone can make a car look great or perfect, but that is not how they came out the factory.

 

If it sold for 4.872m euros inc RM commission, isn't the 19% VAT (or 15% tariff if coming to US) on top of that ? So real cost is actually 5.78m euros...roughly 6.6-6.8m usd ...or is my maths wrong

 

VAT is only on the auction house fees; being a used car, there is no VAT on the net selling price (it's assumed a VAT has already been paid in the EU when the car was first purchased, and VAT is only collected once).

 

Got it thanks

 

But I suspect the 15% tariff would still apply to total if bringing it in to the USA

 

Not 2.5% + 15% ?

 

stop worrying about price and drive the f'in things...

 

no one drives f hypercars these days, unfortutently

I remember 10-15 years ago I used to see f40/f50/enzos on track days all the time but now they just sit tucked away in garages

 

the higher the prices go, the more people use them as investments purely...taking them out to an annual concourse and if they're lucky. There was some guy in the UK a few years back that used his grigio F50 as a daily. That's how it's supposed to be!

Classic cars over 25 years old are explicitly exempt from the new 25% tariff, maintaining the existing 2.5% + reciprocal tariff (varies by country( rate under HTS code 9903.94.04.

 

The US is running a 15 % tariff on Classic cars, plus the 2.5 % since April this year..

 

Technically JTSE30 is right, he just didn't state the rate of the applicable tariff, which varies depending on the origin (manufacture) of the car... 15% in the case of Ferrari, but the rate is only 10% for cars produced in the UK.
