    Looking to spend $100,000 US, maybe 20 more or less for a Ferrari 355 spyder, 360 modena coupe or spyder (if possible!) or a 550 Maranello in very good condition. Also considering getting a Lamborghini Diablo. If anyone could find any of these cars for sale and post here I would really appreciate it.

    thanks

    Subscribe to The Ferrari Market Letter. It is a great source for Ferraris for sell as well as to help you see the trend of asking prices in the current market. By the way, go with the 550 !!

    Ron Tonkin GT in Portland OR may have what you want. If not they can find it for you. These are stand up guys and will treat you right. (877) 840-5146 ask for Greg Thies, or go to www.rtgt.com and see what they may have in stock. But they may also have knowledge of other cars available too. Good luck in your search!

    Cheers!

    You should really do some research prior to making a $100,000 mistake. Presently you are considering a purchase from $80,000~$120,000, across several models and different manufacturers. I would suggest doing research on all of your listed vehicles and coming up with a positive/negative list for each, I would included known common problems and their associated costs in the negative column. Once you have thinned your herd down to a specific model, and hopefully a specific year, you can begin the process of locating a prime example of it. I am sure some research will bare out certain years of each car listed to be avoided, and other years that are considered the most desirible, from a maintainence stand point.
