    Obviously I am well aware of the fact that F cars have corrected in price quite a bit since 2015 but doesn't it seem that the 575 SA's have come down a lot more percentage wise in price??

    Wouldn't this car been $400K + near its peak? (MT would be $600K + but no need for a MT personally for that extra cash)

    Are we near a bottom in SA prices??

    Is there any difference between the SA a regular 575M coupe (besides the top of course)?

    Other than the known 'convertible top issue' what else do I need to know about these cars?

    I absolutely love the look of the SA and would consider consolidating my sports cars down to just one car and the SA fits my needs (must be top down in the summer time!)

    Thanks!

    BTW, it doesn't look like the Goldman car has the 'handling package'. How essential is that?

    They don’t become less rare, so I would suppose the market will go up in a long term perspective. There were one manual 575 SA that went for about 950.000 dollars a couple of years ago. It shows the willingness to pay much for a super rare car (that you also can use every day if you like).

    The 575 SA had all the upgrades accrued over the life of the 575, plus a full portfolio of options including the GTC package. As with all of these cars, options, mileage, and service are key. The SA also had an annoying (and pricey) issue with their roof delaminating. Any purchase should come with a close evaluation.

    It is hard to say the SA is a fine car but back before 2013 or so they could be purchased for 220 to 250 .... Then we had that spike in prices from 2014 till 2017 and the prices shot up they were selling in the 400s or so ... I was looking at a SA that was at a Ferrari dealer priced at 230k and I considered it but all of a surdden it was shown as sold and back on the market for 450k I passed....
    So is it worth 280 or 400 .. beats me .. but they start looking pretty attractive at this pricing ....
