    Very nice. I have an 05 very similar to it. Have the wheels been changed on the car? I thought the modular wheels were standard. I can't remember if it was an option that I added when I ordered mine or not. The original sticker will tell you it they have it. Service records come with it? The original sticker was likely around $230,000 to $255,000 depending on the options. My guess is that they would be lucky to get something on the order of $200,000-$215,000 for it now, maybe less.

    I love my 575 and it has been a great car if you are looking for a front wheel drive 12 cylinder. Good luck.

    That looks like St. Louis. If you end up buying the car, make sure they include a ride in Mario's FXX with the deal. It looks like a nice car, but for the money they are asking I'd be tempted to stretch a little more and get a superamerica. It will hold better resale (for when you trade up to the 599) and offers the option of top-down driving. Either way, good luck in STL with that thing - the other drivers are so terrible I can almost guarantee the car will be wrecked within a week. They all need remedial driving lessons.

    Thanks. Yes that's it. I think that perhaps they might be flexible on price. I love the idea of a ride in the FXX. Do you know the car? Owner? Who are you referring to as the drivers? Ha!

    Check the date of manufacture, the first timing belt change will be 36 months from that date. Can you get an FNA extended warranty? There are a lot of opinions on this but from my experience with a low mileage 575M; I was happy I had one. Good luck; It's a great car.

    Good advice but they are not an F dealer.

    I'd think that car would be 175-185k. It's very nice!

    Those are the correct standard wheels, modulars were an option. A proper '04 w/under 5K miles is approx. 175K retail.

    The owner of that dealership owns an FXX and he sometimes has it in the back showroom. It's SN 145370. I'm kind of curious about that dealership though, because there was an understanding that when Mario received the FXX, he would be granted full Ferrari dealership status as well, which doesn't seem to have happened.

    That's interesting. I am surprised that they have Maserati but not Ferrari. Do you know them?

    That is correct. I just bought a 04 575M and paid about that much with 4100m on it. I looked at this car and decided to go with the one I picked because of color and there was something hincky with the add (and it's not an F dealer). Don't remember for sure. Also, you can get a 4 year 100K warranty after market for about $9400 wereas the F warranty is one year $6400. Food for thought.
