    Hello all,
    I am interested in buying a ferrari, my budget will not exceed $23,000.
    Can someone give me some advice on what will be a good start.
    I like the 1975 and older models.
    Does anyone know what would fit in this price range?

    Thanks,
    Andrew.

    You should be able to find a well sorted out 308GT4 and still have money left over for maintenance.

    Welcome.

    The above post is correct. A GOOD 308GT4 could be had for mid teens, with a hedge fund for repair.

    Only a poor example of a 3*8GTB or GTS might be had, and might quickly blow the budget. A 412 beater would be the same way.

    I know where a nice Red/black 308GT4 is sitting quietly, waiting for it's day in the sum. ;)

    Thanks for the info.
    That 308gt4 might be something to look at.
    Do you know how much?

    I see in adds some people put "daily driver"
    Is that true, can I use this car to drive 30mins to work every day?
    It would sure make the drive alot better.

    thanks again,
    Andrew.

    How about Lameoreasel's wreck?! He says it's REALLY fast and a HUGE chick magnet.
