90k Miles 05 F430, Can anyone beat that?

Looks like a great deal as long as the service is up to date.

 

Somebody must have a perma-smile after that many miles of enjoyment! HEHE!

 

Would love to hear some feedback from that car's owner.

 

Phillip, is the VIN listed with the auction? Is there a link?

 

WHAT!? The engine doesn't blow up after 30k? Lol I would like to shake the hand of the owner for driving and enjoying that beautiful F car.

 

I'm carrying around a camera because mine is going to hit 10k in a few days. Was going to post it as proof that they don't explode when hitting 5 digits (hopefully, heh heh).

 

Very cool. The F430 engine, and car in general, seems very robust.

 

I bet the seats are pretty worn though.

I'd take off $5 grand more for that dash.... not a fan.

But hey, it would be an utter blast for someone to drive into the ground!

 

I think someone mentioned one with over 100K on it in the bay area somewhere. Car appears to be well cared for. My 05 one owner only has 21K on it and most people think that is high mileage. It would be interesting to see a complete service/repair history on a car like this.

My 01 360 has 28K and some thought that was too high... funny though, assuming the deal holds up, it sold in 2 days on FChat. Not too shabby.

Why you'd spend the money and time these cars require to turn them into garage props has always been beyond me.

 

More power to the the former owner for driving & enjoying the car.

 

Sweet, thanks! I saw this car at Homestead-Miami Speedway in April, 2006. Before that, it was for sale through someone named Jess of Jackson, Mississippi, in June, 2005 - Rosso Corsa with tan leather, Daytona seats, colored dash, leather rear and door moldings, hi-fi, satellite navigation, shields, Challenge wheels, red calipers, 31(!) miles.

 

There is a guy here in the Bay Area with over 100K miles on his 430, don't know all the details, but has been quite reliable.

 

There are several 360's around the Bay Area with high milage, 50 to 100K, all have done pretty well maintenance wise.

 

Love seeing those kind of miles on ferrari's . Seems like its holding it's value, 87,000 miles. I would think it would be worth mid 70's.

 

Either way still a great deal. I'm sure it's well sorted hope I can find a similar one in a year or so. Good luck to the new owner.

 

If you're that curious look for all the previous threads dedicated to just this subject

 

I don't get why this is such a great deal to everyone. Any normal marque would be at 20% sticker with that mileage. Guess Ferrari's are twice as reliable as your average daily driver

Couldn't resist.

 

wonder where this car ended up ... last i know sold for 75k
vin is ZFFEW58A950140751

 

Mine has 17,000 miles and I have been told by numerous friends that if I was going to sell it to do so before it hits 20,000. I think it's great to enjoy and drive them but I also understand the other side of the coin.
My friend Nick in Seattle doesn't put much mileage on his 430 because of the weather conditions. Each to his own.

 

So you think it sold for $75k. That was what I thought it was worth back in April of 2012 when I first saw this car.
