Hello there, Pretty simple : I wanna built a 430 or 458. I have the tools, the techniques and knowedge to assemble. But not the parts... Does somebody have a clue what the price would be if you buy all parts seperatly to built a f458 of 430? Thanks
Go to ricambiamerica.com or eurospares.co.uk and get your calculator and have at it. I'm fairly sure that its more than buying a used one outright.
You can use the same equation that we use in building a race car: Figure out exactly what it's going to cost you, multiply by 2 and add 25%. That's what it will actually cost you. Listen to Curt, find a used car and fix it up.
Here's an idea, troll the roads of wealthy parts of the country where nitwits with more money than brains drive, mulholland drive, roads around Greenwich,CT, etc. look on the sides of the roads for ferrari parts that fall off or are lost in accidents and you can build one for free! Granted it might take you a while..
This is pretty much the number. The other alternative is to shell out some pretty pennies for various 430's wrecked/totaled, and piece together a working example, and add in a bumper or two. That should still come out around 80-100K? Maybe on the low end? I'm completely guessing here.
