Hi Can anyone help me with car value? I am looking at a 2006 yellow F430 convertible and not sure if the price is right. This car has 10K with a clean car fax and 4 previous owners. The seller is a dealership and will allow me to have Ferrari inspect it. Asking $ 135K am I getting a deal? What should I do? Thanks
Options matter--carbon ceramic brakes, power seats and Daytona seats all add up to about $10-15k value in my view. Carbon fiber dash or other items? Hard to answer you without details on options, Mtc records condition details. In general, the asking price seems fair--but need the details.
here are the specs:A clean CARFAX low mileage example that was recently sold by the local Ferrari dealer. Loaded with the following options and finished in Giallo Modena (Fly Yellow with black leather) Ball polished wheels, Yellow brake calipers, Scuderia shields, Front and rear Challenge grilles, Engine bay in carbon fiber, Upper driving zone in carbon fiber, Power seats, Daytona seats, Yellow stitching, Hi Fi sound system, Carbon fiber steering wheel, Yellow tachometer, Center console in carbon fiber, Door sills in carbon fiber, Navigation system, Wind deflector.

Looks like it has almost every option, less CCBs. Engine bay in carbon is very rare. ($$$) Rear challenge grill is also hard to find. I said it was priced properly before. Knowing the options are that extensive my advice is to jump on it sooner than later.
Agree - it's got the options that count there , plus more - go for it. As ever check manifolds done on warranty ($$$$also) Best of luck!
Hi Jorhalle, many of these options are actually standard features!It sounds like an attractive package,though!Too bad that the owner went for $$$$ options like the five-spoke wheels,CF steering wheel and the CF engine bay and didn't go for the CCM brakes as well! Enjoy it ! Cheers Manny
I have a 2005 Giallo Modena F430 Spider and love every minute of it. I have carbon interior parts, yellow stitching, carbon race seats with yellow sticking, upgraded hifi, tmps, shields. The only thing it does not have is CCB, would have wanted it but was not a deal breaker for me. As for the color, it had to be a Giallo Modena for me. Do not think it gets more attention then a Rossa Corsa, maybe Rossa Corsa gets more attention because more people like it. Just had my shield replaced for original carbon shields last weekend at the dealer. The other foto was made yesterday when I drove my daughter to her prom.
