    Notice how they haven’t mentioned it was originally LHD? Lots of details are wrong too, including the centre console which should not be wood (in spite of it being “carefully refurbished by hand” FFS :rolleyes: ). Vinyl dash? Don’t think so. Kensington wool carpets? Whom makes this **** up?

    By way of comparison, Gosford Classic Cars ( formerly the museum ) currently ( still) have 2 GTC/4s for sale, their silver car #14483 had an estimate of 450-550K at their October 2017 Pickles auction, their blue LHD drive car #15617 was on Carsales in April 2017 for 575K. The market hasn't increased since then, and both cars remain unsold.
    The 725K ask for the CTS car is out of touch with the market and the conversion renders it ineligible for Classiche.

    In 2019 and beyond, Hughes Supercar Services aims to deliver an even more efficient ownership transfer advocacy and consultancy service.

    We'll aim to connect even more buyers and sellers to each other.

    Our service filters out time wasters and tyre kickers from sellers.

    We'll handle the legwork, help keep sellers residence privacy and spend the time answering questions and delivering advice.

    We'll travel anywhere nationally or globally to find and check the cars for you.

    If you're selling, nobody will joy ride your car, only Hughes Supercar Services will demonstrate in a safe, controlled and respectful manner, with insurance.

    If you're buying, we'll properly demonstrate full functionality and convey the enjoyment of the Ferrari helm to you, without taking risks with your licence or safety.

    We'll do all the hard work and only connect buyer and seller when it comes to the final transaction. Buyers pay sellers direct. No sales price % commission, full transparency, just a fair and reasonable and negotiable capped fee. Even the most valuable cars will have very low capped fees that represent a tiny fraction of a typical brokers percentage.

    Exploit our huge global private client data base and dealer connections to find the car you want or sell the car you invested in.

    We'll advise on market value and get the best deal for everyone.

    And you can rest assured that all cars will have the Hughes Supercar Services mechanical reports, checks and adjustments that make them the joy to drive they should be, and come with a short to medium term budget prediction for maintenance, repairs and preservation of the marque.

    Simply email [email protected] or text +61405873443, (or if you really have to, a phone call) to get the ball rolling. We'll find your car or buyer and make it happen.

    forza Ferrari !

    this definitely isn't the right car and it's very disappointing to see the lack of marque knowledge from the person who wrote the description, which is incorrect in just about every way.

    I'm shure you enjoyed this pearl

    "Under the masterfully sculpted Pininfarina body sits the chassis and running gear of the fabled GTB/4 Daytona, along with an identical 4.4 litre Colombo V12 engine,"

    indeed, not to mention that a Daytona has a transaxle and different rear suspension, wheelbase and steering. In fact, there are no significant parts that are common to both cars. Nor does either car have a Colombo engine, which made it's final appearance in the 365GT2+2.

    I'm wondering if the CTS car was an accident write off, there has to be some story behind the GT4 console and need for such a major restoration.

    I’m dumbfounded as the only private superfast advertised on carsales is between $100-$200k less than dealers.
    He must of priced below it’s true value or dealers are trying to bend you over..
    I’m guessing the later
