    Just curious. I bought for $55K last May.

    It is a 1995 355 GTS 6 speed. 32K miles. Rosso Corsa over black interior. A recent service (<200 miles). Aside from the belts, i replaced the headers and exhaust with Tubi. Also new water pump and radiator. The work was done at a highly reputable shop, although not a Ferrari dealership. The mechanic said the motor was very strong and had great compression. So mechanically it is sound.

    Now the bad about the car....

    I only have MY records of the car, it is a Eurospec, no luggage, books or tool kit. I only have 1 set of keys.
    There paint dings here and there. Another mechanic who checked the car out for me thinks the car had been in an accident even though it has a clean carfax report. There is evidence that the car had been resprayed in some spots. I'd rate the exterior about a 7/10.


    For the interior, the the bolster on the driver seat is bad. The leather around the airbag is strinking a little causeing the corners to curl. Also i think the door sills could be replaced. Id give the interior an honest 8.

    Don't have an pics right now, I'll be sure to post some pics of problematic areas. I'm not selling any time soon, just trying to guage the value of it.

    IMHO, after what you have described, without a thorough inspection by an expert, any number is meaningless.

    The car based on what you have described is worth about what you paid for it and no more...

    I would say mid $50k's also. The GTS is my favorite, and other than the possible wreck the problems are cosmetic (as you describe them).

    Depends how long you want to wait for a buyer - being a GTS bumps it up in my mind, and many of the 'downsides' are pretty much standard - no accessories and some paint chips. Resprays are not uncommon and most agree doesn't hurt the value. Only real downside could be valve guides - are they done? Right or wrong, any educated buyer will put that high on the question list. I'd say high 50's to maybe 60. (belts, headers, Tubi are all good positives).

    It's Roso Corosa w/ Black. I thought the same thing, I wasn't even ready to buy one yet but I just couldn't pass it up.

    It is all a crap shoot to guess, but I would say you will be right around $50k if you sell it. You might get a bit more or less, depending on the knowledge of the buyer.
