Market Prices 575 Manual vs 575 F1 (conversion costs) vs 550?

Also consider 18" modulars, since those were optional on the 550 and standard on the Barchetta. Much better selection of tires for the 19" 575M wheels, though.

 

I thought it was the car from Florida.

I really liked that car!

Let us know how she drives.

 

Genuine Low Mile cars carry a premium. You were very lucky!

 

Very nice 7,000 mile - One Owner 550 up for sale!

One more low milage car... Pricing will probably never be known as this is a closed auction. Anyone here knows if it is possible to know the auction result anyway?

 

I totally missed the 7K mile car till now! lol

 

Yes, its hard to believe that we are one of the only 1-owner ones left around! Such a great car, I cannot see selling it unless financial disaster hits. Pops bought it when he sold his company, and it will stay in the family forever, I think. Lots of emotion tied to it. I remember as a college kid sitting in the dealership building the spec in 1997! First car I drove 200mph in. Funny, Moms still has the PTS 996 that she ordered on the same day. We are an overly emotionally attached to cars family! lol

The luggugage is nice, but my mind just says "My tumi is better and loads less $" lol

 

Wow... I didn't know the 550 could hit 200mph.

So I just looked it up on Youtube and saw this;

 

CM- They can do 200 mph indicated.

ours has a tune and exhaust, makes a bit more HP according to my old dyno. We saw 203 indicated on ours. Not as fast as I took a ruf ctr2, but still darn fast.

 

$201K

Trojan horse if you ask me. Two decades of storage = two decades of decay in many respects. Looks like buyers priced that in.

 

Or the other question would have been how much would it have taken to get her back up to shape.

My guess is $20 - $25,000.


May the Horse be with you

 

This stunning example just sold at Miller Motor Cars the asking was $209,000 with 11k miles.

I presume it sold over $200k

May be of interest to somone here considering manual swapping a 575.

 

It would still be a euro with grey interior - maybe $250K?

I think BaT is predominantly becoming a catch-all for cars that are challenging to retail or have skeletons in the closet, so I personally price in the “what if it’s not what it looks like” with BaT sales.

Top cars don’t need BaT to break records. Sellers want no part in dealing with that. Buyers of those cars want eyes on them and no urgency to understand what they may be buying. BaT is a good way to get exposure among the middle section of buyers who are less picky and below the step-change in the pricing curve that captures the full spectrum from drivers to investment grade.

looks a nice buy for someone in the UK.

 

That's indeed a bargain - but with the steering wheel on the wrong side the market is limited...

Was going to post on the BaT peanut gallery, but didnt feel its appropriate... and Im sure Rifledriver or someone else will chime in about people can do whatever they want with the car and their money...


Sorry... opposing opinion, but what a waste of a beautiful car. It never has, and likely never will reach anywhere the performance and enjoyment these were built for. Sure its going to set records, but this is for a static vehicle, not a car anyone is likely going to enjoy as designed.

This negates all the talk of how great these are to drive (550 platform) or how perfect of an engine and how comfortable they are. Just doesnt apply to this vehicle anymore. Is it even appropriate to have ANY service done at this point or is that part of the lore to a super low mile car, and preserving its 'originality'

 

Some say that "why save your girlfriend for the next guy" etc., but what about taking a moment to translate that into our own lives? I mean. Can you you really experience you 20s and 30s again? What if you later change your mind or life change into another direction. Would you be happy thinking "I owned a 550 Maranello for five years, and I saved it for next generations"? Maybe there are other really cool cars that can be more interesting to drive. I like the experiences with my past cars, but many of them are not interesting to buy again. It would be atrange to walk around and regret all the things I did not do.
