    Sure, $17,500 seems like a very realistic price for a Barchetta.

    It's probably a typo or a scam. This Barchetta was recently sold by Michael Sheehan, and even the pictures are from his website.

    It was sold by Michael Sheehan for $395k (about an year ago).... Probably is worth about $250k.

    Totally. A 3 year old, limited production Ferrari is usually priced better than any other Ferrari. If you have the means, I highly recommend one.

    The auction states its one of 6 pre-production models, "The 6th of 6 Factory pre-production prototypes built for the 550 Barchettas. A US model."--- Still don't understand why its soo cheap, it says its fully street legal in the US w/ a warranty.. I WANT IT!


    PS- Emailed the seller, I plan on buying the car if all this checks out ;) lol

    Totally, why wouldn't it check out. Just sell your couple year old Toyota & you can own one of the most exclusive cars in the world. Why is everyone so suspicous?

    Exactly-- but in my case, my Subaru-- think the Barchetta'll hold up in the Albany winter? :)

    Probably not, the top is too hard to put on. :)

    I'm thinking of selling my beater for the 17k daily driver.

    Nice! Way to bargain. That asking price was a tad high. Nice work.

    I'm already working on it. And I ordered a large Diablo wing to put on the back. I think it will really look great!! I have some money for mods, seeing that I feel I got a better than average deal on the car.

    Got a reply about asking w/ its 1/10 of the normal asking price:

    Hello Kenny ,

    Glad to hear back from you. I'm going through a big financial crises and my daughter is suffering of a heart disease which could end with hers death if she's not going to have a heart surgery. She's only 13 years old and I need this money for the surgery asap.
    So please if we can go through this deal faster I would really appreciate it.

    Thanks for your time and for your help!
    Sincerely, Brian Kupiec
