    There's a 2005 612 with a stick listed for $325,000. It has 20K miles on it. It appears to be priced at least $200K over the same car with an F1.

    I could see a huge premium for a stick in say a 360, but in a GT like the 612? Of course what they ask for the car doesn't mean they'll get that for the car. I wonder what they gave the previous owner.

    I think the $325K price is definitely ambitious. It deserves a premium over the F1 transmission Ferrari made just under 200 612's with a true manual transmission. They produced approximately 3K. So yes it deserves a premium but it is not anywhere close to being as rare as a 599 manual transmission equipped car...

    I found this one for sale but not sure if it is a current listing or not. I imagine somewhere here will know. The asking price is $199K and it has lower miles than the one at Miller. It is newer as well.

    I saw that car in person. It's immaculate. There was another manual 612 in for service and one of the salesmen told me that they were trying to buy it off the owner.

    The first definitely seems ambitious, as there are a few listed in Europe around the €175/199 range. The second is priced right but of course it's a different market. The black on black color combo with daytona seats is nice and I like the carbon shifter.

    I almost bought that car four years ago. It has a salvage title. I wouldn't pay a premium for that car given that issue.

    Good lord at that price it would pay to convert an F1 to stick, no?
    Maybe not as a commercial enterprise, but as an end user.

    Yes for sure no premium for a salvaged car. I figured the ad was old. I am not surprised someone here knew the history of it. Thanks for sharing.

    A salvage title should warrant a discount!

    There have been several manuals over the last year and the ask prices have been ridicules! A beautiful blue one at Yellow Compass. Hard to say what the selling prices are.

    Wow, if that car has a salvage title, that price is even more insane than I thought!
