2008 Ferrari 599 GTB | Antique Auto Sales, Classic Cars, Exotic Automobiles | The Classic Car Gallery | Southport, CT

 

Anyone know asking price?

 

Asking was $1M a few weeks ago.

 

That's more than GTO money !

 

Yes but this car is way prettier than a normal random GTO.

PLUS it's manual

 

Has anyone ever driven a GTO and a manual ? If so, Just curious to know which one they prefer to keep if one had to make the choice.

 

To drive I would go with the GTO. The manual felt like an afterthought when I drove it, I did not care for how it drove. Should have bought it in 2009 when I tried it out!

 

I hear you...was offered one less than 2 years ago for 170k 😏

 

I was trying to get my father to buy a manual TDF 599 with dark blue interior (I'm sure Mr. Massini would know exactly which one this is). It was sitting around in our Swiss classifieds forever (approx 130k CHF with very low miles, 5-6 years ago, when F1 cars were still around 200k). I always knew these cars would fetch big money one day. Unfortunately, my father wasn't interested in a manual car… What a shame!

 

Do we have a register for the 599 GTB manuals ?

 

What are we looking at price wise today for a gated 599 GTB ?

 

Thank You !!

 

Just remember that 12 months ago no one gave a **** about a manual 599. It's quite possible no one will give a **** about it 12 months from now either.

 

Not likely, with Ferrari making it clear there are no plans for future MT cars. This is very disappointing.

Its bad enough that enthusiasts have to fight over the few remaining used models; but, the limited edition nature of modern MT cars naturally attracts collectors & prospectors, which drives up the prices much further.

If Ferrari would start producing MT cars again, then the prices of used MT cars would fall.

 

Fuel in the fire for the haters

New, Used Ferrari 599 6 speed manual at CNC Motors Inc. Serving Ontario, CA

Interesting cross reference in the sellers text to (achieved) prices of 575 manuals.
Even though the 575 manuals have quite a burden with the aprox. 3000 550s, which are pretty much the same car,
they fetch quite a premium. (please do not point out differences 550/575 now, you know what I mean).

This manual trend is only just starting and it is not only Fcars.
Just look at price increases for 996/997 GT3/RS. And there really are enough of them out there.
In the future all gated shifters in 2-seaters will not only bring driving pleasure to their owners.

Everything counted together, those few 599 manuals have quite an interesting future ahead of them...

 

This is 182599... That is not my dash plate as mentioned above. Mine says that but in Italian...and yes mine is a US car.

 

Lovely mileage and price on the black car!
