    It's not easy to capture that feature in an image, but it's blatantly obvious in that one.

    Today's job of inspecting the inspection process in real time as it happend at a Ferrari North America dealership.

    This utterly stunning F50 which has just 2,900 miles and still has it's original Goodyear Fioranos on, no disrespect to all the other beautiful F50s I have conveyed but a nicer F50 I am yet to see from top to bottom

    Looks like a Euro production. What’s the ask?

    Yes it is a European production F50, it has already sold that's why we were having it inspected, it's a Private Treaty sale which happens to be subject to a confidentiality request so I'm not at liberty to disclose the sales price.

    All correct, the car is well-known and has been discussed here in some detail before, prior to it being sold.

    Although it is a European production version, considering it's mileage & condition the deal was a nice one taking into account this recent result of a USA example https://www.goodingco.com/vehicle/1995-ferrari-f50-7/

    The original GS Fioranos will be saved when fresh rubber is mounted

    I think this car was offered to me about a year ago. It was federalized correct?

    The F50 looks better every time I see a picture of it - talk about the ultimate of "the ultimates" :)

    One of the coolest details of the F50 are the unique ways all the accessories are packaged and stored, from the large roof storage box to the small compartments located throughout the front section. It’s both peculiar and fascinating, creating another great layer of character to the car.

    Exactly what I was trying to convey, but I think you've said it better than I did.

    For purposes of inpsection.

    Yes, as I said above: "The original GS Fioranos will be saved when fresh rubber is mounted".

    I think he was referring to the unusual lift that attached to the center lock hubs. Is there a concern about drooping suspension that this method prevents?

    It prevents contact with the underside of the car.

    As anyone here will tell you, there are many factors other than color that will effect value. Beyond that, there are different value premiums ascribed to different non-RC colors, partly due to relative rarity and partly due to general preferences (i.e. Rosso Barchetta may not carry the premium everyone would expect considering it's approx. 4X more rare than Giallo).

    That all said, for a non-RC car in otherwise same-for-same condition, I would expect a premium of 15 to perhaps up to 25%; some recent sales have generally been in this range.

    Agree completely, a good example which illustrates what you are saying might be a low-mileage factory Nero car, especially in the USA.
