I think we all thought you were selling yours with your first post asking Stokpro to ADD yours to the list of cars on the market......

 

I know, I misread his email.............
Mines definately not for sale, just did the belts, MACarbon steering wheel, new rubber and a full professional detail.

 

Well sounds like it's Perfect and ready for sale


I thought you just picked it up a while back and was shocked to see that post myself

 

hahahahah

wost part is I havent driven it yet
We forgot to have the title notorized so I had to UPS it back to CA.
I hope to get the title back tomorrow.........then I leave for FL for a week.
Probably no wheel time until Mar 26 ish

 

I just think that's above market. Unfortunately the market really doesn't exist anymore and lots of guys are looking at 140k F430's ( though not a cultish car ) they are a great car with less maintenance. I bet you would get a few phone calls in the 145k range and sell it below. my opinion only. Great color combo. Most of the guys looking now want red ones though. We've got another year of turmoil minimum in this economic slump and things should rebound some. Possibly pull it off and play with it for a while. Maybe next year there will be more buyers.

 

Buyers seem to be getting more particular along with becoming lesser in number, and in the $160K price range here is what they generally want. Of course there are exceptions:


NO story car. As in NONE
Low miles.
Red
Factory Stripe

Maybe next year there will be more buyers, or more likely, given the econcomic conditions, fewer buyers. I think as time goes by there will be even greater price disparity between cars meet the above criteria and those that don't.

Right now a car that meets all the criteria could bring $160K.
Some that don't won't even bring $100K.
A car like Allen's is probably 130's to maybe 140. Again there are always exceptions like the TDF w/20K that supposedly just brought $159K. Either it didn't really or the buyer paid too much me thinks.

 

Good Example right here 2006 F430 Coupe 6k miles ASKING 150k. Cultish like the CS no. Better car all the way around yes. The Ferrari collectors have their cars and all CS sellers are competing for the "NEW" Ferrari owner imho. So newer bigger faster stronger will win that race

Just curious why you insist on screwing-up every Challenge Stradale thread? I'll say it again, don't go away mad, just please go away.

 

why do you think I screw them up....because people ask opinions and don't like the answers? He asked about his car and price point. I think they are cool and as most owners wish them to remain 200k cars. This is an info thread. So is it you don't like the reality? Cars have tanked. All of them. It sucks but it's the reality. High end cars even worse. Funny Teak thinks Allens is worth 130 to 140k as well.......hmmm

 

Excuse me if this is old news for you -- this is from the early Feb edition of FML. The three shown for sale have been on the market for 4-7 months. I do not know what the original asking prices were at the time their respective ads were first published. One of the ones listed is Titanium. I do not know if any of these have sold. It might be worth researching.

I don't think that is H2O's intent. He seems to be pretty fair about the situation re: pricing/values/who's keeping/who's selling... even though he owns a CS.

 

thanks for all the input and thoughts. i still think based on some of the sales ive seen , like the tdf with 20k that an origional perfect car like mine should bring a premium price. look at all the stories thread on stradales. how many cars offered for sale right now are origional owners, low miles, perfect condition and fully serviced. plus im sure im partial,lol, but i think the titanium with black leather is one of the nicest combos, if i do say so myself, lol.again thanks for all your input.

 

I had some interest in that car. I had my brother drive it, and he said it was very nice, but when I asked the dealer for a history on the car as well as records they refused to call me back. It has aftermarket wheels and radio. It has an absolutely stunning interior.

 

Huh? hows he ruining the thread?........just curious

 

I am surprised the CS market is not better. I know everything especially high end cars have tanked. I was not in the market for a CS but ended up buying one because the price was too good to pass up. I was looking to spend a $100k on a good 360 but for a very few dollars more I got a CS. I know for me I would rather have a CS than a 430. I know all about the stats and which maybe the better car. But if you appreciate Ferraris, and I assume you do by spending time on this site, then there is no comparison. A CS has the soul and passion of what Ferrari is all about. It is a special Ferrari while the 430 is not. For car nuts with $130K to spend you can get many high cars but I can't think of one that had a limited production one year run.

 

Allen in NJ,

I think your car is priced fairly. Be patient...the market usually picks up between March and June.

Best

Jon

 

I agree

 

I think the question has been asked multiple times and has yet to be answered. I'm curious about the 43 Stradales for sale. I'm assuming you have an Excel spreadsheet to track the whereabouts of these 43 cars, their color combinations, asking prices, etc. I'd love to see this list if possible. If this thread is intended to assist sellers (to show comparative pricing) and/or potential buyers (to assist them in finding a car that fits their needs) then why not post this list? Why not copy and paste it here so people can benefit from the information?
