AN F430 FOR $205K

Is that minus the engine and gearbox?? LOL!!

 

Well besides it being in LA!!!!

 

I dont want to discourage you from buying it Gil,but i was wrecked on here before when i mentioned the same thing about 612s'. They are buy now on ebay for around US$230K,they are AU$600K here. By the time you import it,pay LCT,freight,compliance,convert it ect..ect... it is not worth it(apparently) But makes you wonder hey,that the yanks get them available to buy for such a price is crazy!

 

Not including turning it into RHD, Shipping and custom taxes That bring it close to $350k. Id rather a factory RHD then a non factory after thought

If you just saying that we in Oz get ripped off well yes I agree

Actually dont even need to look at Ferrari's I know in the USA a $40k car here is a cool $10k cheaper in the states and that is a Jap car which needs to make it LHD for the USA market.

 

A big joke is not the word brother!

 

but then the yanks worship stuff like the skyline and supra, some even think of them as exotic because they're rare over there and rather pricey, whereas here every kid from bunnings with a caterpillar-moustache has one.

 

When it comes to cars I agree with wanting to live in the US.

 

Thats about all you'd wanna live there for too! Well..........maybe also for all the Elvis sightings!

 

what about the FXX $2000000,worth it or not.
edit: is that right

 

I had one offered for 2.5M euro... that's $4M AUD

Still got the details if anyones wants it, I didn't buy it for stock though.

 

i'll give you a slab of VB for it... with a racing stripe!

 

the FXX is worth $4m in Australia,and i thought it was gonna be around $2m guess i was wrong.

 

Tell me its not as bad as i imagine, i might be on the way over for a few years

 

I keep trying to immigrate there, but its quite hard.

 

We've had this discussion before. Forgetting the FX difference, and unless the mfr/dealers are making a bigger quid, its in the tax!!

 

I think I saw your 430 at Dixon's today Gil- Red with tan, silly brakes and fender badges. Not very imaginative mate! The one good thing about buying a new Ferrari is that there is no end to the colour options and specs. You can make your car look different to the other 25,000 430's out there if you want to.

 

Gil's obviously selling this one

saw scud's 430 with the dirty wheels last Sunday, nice car but not very impressive .... it doesn't shout Ferrari , I think Pininfarina has lost his way here with too many Japanese designers ..... we need to go back to the naked woman theme of the 246 or the classic 250 GT , it's not about speed anymore , it's about the dynamics and looks and I think the modern Ferraris have lost the edge, Lambo is still a leader in design but Ferrari seem to be doing a Bangle

 

what about Europe?
wouldnt there cars be cheaper?
And better still what about Dubai or Bahrain?no taxes at all!

 

You mean Zagames.... of course!

yeah, I saw it too yesterday.... parked along side about 4 others.

Awesome car though, but coupe next to it looked MUCH neater....

 

where exactly is Daubi located?

 

i hate to say it but i think your right John
Ferrari are going a bit pear shaped
