Lets see how this does. Not a huge sticker for an 07. Looks like it was a $235k car https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2007-ferrari-f430-spider-14/
Nice, thx @ttforcefed Completely disagree with the comments about the spider, dropping the top is the absolute best Ferrari said the difference is negligible, I can't feel any 'cowl shake', just 'heart shake' Love these, the 2nd one is hysterical. Not 6spd related, but the 2nd one is spider related. I'm sure they've been posted here somewhere before. Check out part 1 and part 2, both great Watch "Ferrari 430 | Car Review | Top Gear - Part 1" on YouTube Watch "Ferrari 430 Review (Part 2) | Top Gear" on YouTube
for the 360 and 430 im a spider guy as well. for the 355/458 i prefer the coupes. all based on looks. i never drive anywhere near 10/10ths.
Probably fear of deferred maintenance that kept bidders from making it a healthier figure. It's a reasonable conclusion when a car has less than an average of 250 miles per year, barring the existence of every single service record from new indicating service performed regardless of mileage. Certainly not saying that's what happened in this instance, of course, just that it's a conclusion people often come to with super-low-mileage cars.
Considering the recent sale @$241k for a 20k mile car, $201k for a 29k mile car doesn't seem linear, though both nice sales. The car today seemed to have more of a story behind it (non OEM headers/wheels, etc) could be a combination of that and just who happens to be bidding? Though this one did have the CCB upgrade...I'm stumped!
I guess if you're in it to collect, a 20k miles car that is stock is more appealing than a 29k miles that is not. The latter seems to be on the precipice from collectible to driver
Just dropped my car off at EAG this week to have the 6speed conversion done. As you can see I’m not a purist and don’t care if this increases or decreases the value of the car. I’ve already done what most people would be sick doing and put holes in just about every panel, I just want it to increase the fun factor and at the same time reduce the possibility of some of the F1 system issues. Thus far the experience with EAG has been fine, communication with Art when deciding on it last year was great, scheduling drop off and getting it to the shop was smooth and easy, everyone was super friendly and involved. I was happy to see they have a large number of 430s, 360s and 599s that they’re working on. Since this conversion and the shop themselves seem to have so many mixed opinions, I’ll report back on my experience once I’m further into it but as of now I can honestly say I think they can knock out these conversions successfully with ease, if I’m worried about anything it’s more about them being extra careful when dealing with some of my car’s other modifications.
She is home. Best money ive ever spent on modifying a car. The car feels like it pulls so much harder. 6 to 3rd downshifts are to die for. So pumped i did this!!!! Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Congrats! Seems like pretty fast turnaround. Doesn't seem that long ago when you posted it was shipped out there.
No tune on this car yet. Just feels like there is more power available at throttle- better human gear selection maybe? Pulls clean right to the top. I felt like in the f1 it ran out of breath. Maybe its just me.
