Too good to be true??

It seems to me this car is about $50K under market price. But then I am not up on the latest F430 pricing...

Not many get sold @ auction.. but I would say that is a pretty good price for the miles if it checks out and is super clean like it says

That's an OUCH! Considering how much he must have paid for it out the door new, and what he may get at the end, it's probably muchobuck/mile for the 700 miles on it.

Ferrari's are very color dependent. You will see around a 10-15k difference in price based on color alone.

Hit the nail on the head. The exterior color is OK, but the interior is VERY difficult. Hey, they don't call it re-sale red for nothing.

There also doesn't seem to be a whole lot of options on that car either.

I find red to hold the least amount of resale value, especially on limited production cars like mine. Black, blue, yellow, all hold $15k more than red. White can hold up to $50k.

Well, how much do you think the car in the ad is worth?

For the hideous color and interior, his price is right on the money. Though I would never consider dropping that kind of money on a car that ugly. Keep saving and keep looking.
