Ferrari 458 - What's the Used Market Like Today?

Here is a nice one in FL. 2011 Italia with just less than 13,000 miles for ~$170K. This is not a Ferrari AD so that should be taken into consideration. I recently sold my 488 Spider to these guys and they are really good people. Hopefully you can find something like this in Raleigh (BTW, Go Wolfpack!).

Number of owners means almost nothing for Ferrari.

 

2012 is the perfect year for you. Post trans-issues, 7yr maintenance so likely was maintained well, etc, Best balance of return on $, generally speaking.
# of owners is irrelevant, to a large degree.
PPI is a must. You seem a bit anal (not a dig, just being real) so would recommend a dealer for peace of mind.
Don’t skimp on options/config - enjoy it. To me, CF seats, CF led wheel, reverse cam, parking sensors, all a must. Max CF trim interior/exterior best you can.
Finally - mod it, once you hear a properly piped 458 you won’t go back

 

Check out Metrolina Auto Group/Mclaren Clt in Charlotte. I’ve bought a F430, Huracan, and a 458 spider from them. They have great deals on Ferrari’s and you can get Foreign Cars Charlotte to do a Ppi on them. Ask for Justin, he is the finance guy and is brutally honest (scratches/issues) on the the cars they sell because he knows they are priced right.

 

Prices are all over the place. I recently purchased one with almost 100k miles . It has some minor stuff but for the money i cant complain to much

 

Prices in my neck of the woods have remained stable over the last 12 months, in the region of 200.000 EUR, give or take 10% due to mileage, options, etc. I believe it can drop a bit further, but it will always plateau at a high(er) price than other models. You should move soon in order to get a relatively low mileage, full service history and few owners car. With time, books get lost, maintenance receipts get lost, keys get lost, cars get damaged by owners who don't care that much about them, etc. It's always the right time to jump at the opportunity of owning such an iconic Ferrari!

Kind regards,

Nuno.

 

You just have to make the most of your money. A lot of elitist will turn their noses up to certain cars. I am a diy guy and bought a 100k mike 458 that needs some odds and ends and still can sit next to low mile car and no one will know the difference.

 

Looking to move from my 911 to a 458 Spider. Id like to keep the purchase price 210 or below. There are a number of options out there, but I don't find many from a Dealership, and wonder thoughts on that. I also wonder if any of you have purchased with out inspecting the vehicle yourself. I know, a 200k price and you don't look at it.

Here is just one I am looking at, and wondering what you think my offer should be. I am not sure I would pay more than 185 for this vehicle, and wold like to see it closer to 180. I would transport it to the Boston area.

Thanks,

Bought my 2015 458 spider sight unseen, granted that’s from a F dealer. Personally I wouldn’t buy from a non dealer but as long as you thoroughly inspect and test etc it should be ok-ish.
The black car in link looks good. Odd the car has race seats and red belts yet no led wheel.
Hope it works out.

 

If you can't go see it yourself, try to find an F-car member local to the car, and tip him a few bucks to give it a good look over. There's just always going to be stuff seen in person, that you won't see in pics. If there's a blemish or something found, you can even use it as a bargaining tool and maybe save a few bucks in the long run. Or, if there's signs of repaint or something more significant found, it can save you big $$$ in the long run by passing on the car.
