Posting for a friend. How much do you guys think itll fetch? My buddys cars are always kept immaculate. Ferrari 612 Base Coupe 2 Door | eBay
Looks like a decent car. Love the interior color. Agree with trygve11 that the dash really needs to be recovered.
175k seems low to me given the manual market hysteria at the moment but the 612 isnt quite as desirable as the 599 so who knows.
Another black manual car ust sold this morning in the classified section- Wonder what he got? I think 175 may be about right as one sold not too long ago at the Houston dealer and the ask was 170 The few I've seen available were around that price
The last manual 612 that sold went for around $170K, IIRC. It had much lower mileage, was a one owner car, and was in better condition. It sold quickly, though, so perhaps it was undersold...
Dash is mint minus the slightly wavy passenger airbag cover. The pic is making it look worse. I can have it recovered in no time. Moe, read the dates on my other 612 car thread. It sold a while ago. I got waaaay over 170 for the first one. This is my second and nicer than the 1st in almost every way, other than the fact that it has 6k more miles. This car is almost concourse condition. And 21k miles trygve. Not 23.
Yeah the future value of this car is somewhat impossible to predict. Historically the 2+2's V12s don't appreciate like the 2 seaters do. And a lot of people who have never seen the 612 in the flesh let alone been in one don't like it. IMO they look better in person than in pics. And once you get a chance to get a ride in one or drive one you see how nice they are. The motor is great and sounds more exotic than my 550's motor. But what makes it so hard to predict what will happen to manual 612 values in the long run is how rare they are. If the manual 599 ends up becoming a 2 million dollar car in 20 years then maybe the manual 612 will be worth $500-750K. Predicting the future is tough so if I had a car like this I would just enjoy having a modern V12 with a gated shifter and seating for 4. If it became super valuable in the future then great. If not then no big deal as it sure as hell isn't going to lose much value.
Last sale I heard was $217k in CT... I wouldn't let mine go for less than $250k, anyhow it is not for sale... It might take forever but this car has big potential. It is the epitome of an era, simply the best 4 seater manual car you will ever be able to buy. And it has Ferrari pedigree and ages really nicely, well built with very few issues, trajectory control (this might sound silly but it is a HUGE point). And on top of everything is is rare by any standard (200 worldwide, <80 in USA). The only car that could replace it today is the FF but the FF will never have the aura of a manual 612...
I'm planning to sell mine - but its euro spec - so I guess it will be interesting for Fchatters from Europe ) ...
My gated 612 is my favorite car. I am still way underwater but it a car that may be unique due to color and options. Silverstone with black interior and charcoal straps and deviated stitching, HGTS, yellow tach and calipers. Only 6000mi! Only use it on the occasional weekend (I can drive year round in SF Bay Area).
26k miles. I don't mind putting miles on it, that's what cars are for and they are very well built. Car is 10 years old, that's 2.5k miles a year, that's nothing... Stability control, basically some sort of electric nanny to save your bacon one day...
I once started a 612 Gated picture thread and it turned into a discussion thread. Kinda hard not to I guess...
It's there. It is just a black lugnut in the pic. I have a new chrome one installed in its place now. Didn't have a chance to do that before the photographer showed up for those pics.
