    Hi All,

    That separate thread with both new and old(er) members regarding the value of 456M GT 6-speeds was riveting in it's drama.

    If you haven't read the thread from beginning-to-end, please do before taking note:

    Algar Philly sold a mint Pozzi Blue M-6 for about $82,500 early in 2010. (Standard seats.)
    Naples then sold a mint Rosso Barchetta M-6 for $75k. (Daytona Seats, Rosso Piping, Tubi)
    Naples sold a mint Black M-6 for $81k? in 2014 (Daytona Seats, Black Piping, teens miles).

    So, $82.5 to $75 to $81?-ish...for the higher-profile sales...or as Taz might possibly say, just statistics for you to interpret and integrate and process among all other perceptions real or imagined.

    And as for the whole auto/F-1 vs. Manual -- to me? -- Like sex with a condom: Come on guys -- Giselle walks in...if she showed up to trade her Rosso Barchetta F12 Berlinetta with Daytona seats and Rosso piping? -- for my 456M Rosso with Rosso piping?? Are you kidding me??? - where is that condom?!!! Oh, she's wearing a 430 Spyder in the same color combo instead??? No? is it a 360 Spyder now? -- or a 575M, or the 550??? Ummm.....

    Point being: use the reference data. ALL the 6-speeds are gone. You want Giselle? -- please, step ahead of me, I'll be driving my girl while barefoot, and love to watch the other F-1 beauties roll by...

    456M-6's are among the last of the handmade persimmon drivers.
