Are There Any Low Production Ferraris under $100k Left?

Yes this is the correct answer to the OP's question.
Unless he doesn't want to hear it in which case the question will change.

 

driver's source in houston has 2 very nice looking 348 spiders. fwiw

 

Ok, try this:

http://www.ronsusser.com/inventory/listing/1993-ferrari-348-ts-serie-speciale-98-black-rare-serviced/

ALthough I don't think it is rare as the 400i I showed you above. For me it's hard to consider the overall 348 family rare. But this is a limited version. Maybe that works for you.

 

Great list. Nut how many 308 GTS (carbed)? And even better, how many 308 GTS carbed 1979 USA-ersions? I got a friend with one over in Sweden... Fine condition with 92.000 kms. For less than 100k dollar.

 

Unintended double entendre?

Columbo engined Ferrari’s are the only ones to have. Or Lampredri.

For what it’s worth, Naples Classic Cars (FL) has four 308 GT4s for sale, all well over $100k. Plus ther very firs production on Ethan’s not for sale.

I like the 348 spiders quite a lot - not a bad choice!

 

Pleased to have been of help! And the thread has become quite interesting.

348 Spiders look cool. I looked at one when on a Ferrari Spider buying journey that ended up with a gated 430 spider. As a first production V8 cabrio I believe the 348 roof is neither easy to use (particularly with age) nor that reliable, others will know more. Even the 320hp versions of the 348 will live under the shadow of the 355 that replaced it. There were 3843 355 Spiders.

 

I would concur with the 348 SS being a top choice. 550s way over 100k. The 456s could be a good choice as well.

 

I have always liked the styling of the GT4. Always thought that it would make an awesome car to “hot rod” (more HP, better brakes and suspension) for some reason.

So the question is now "Are there any low production Ferraris under 100K left that are not 2+2s ?".

PS even though a 348 "Speciale" is low production its still a mass produced 348 with CF bucket seats and a badge.

Here is a low production Ferrari under 100K.

Cant wait for the next question revision.

 

Both the 348 Speciale and the red 550 are tempting. At almost 75K miles the 550 might actually be perfectly sorted out, but the Speciale is an actual limited edition car.

Tough choice, but I'd probably choose the 550.

 

Of course, the bigger problem is the non-Ferrari options for under $100k. The initial cost of a F348 is just the beginning of the hurt on your pocketbook. For roughly the same money, you could probably find a 996 GT3 that would rock you all day long. Or how about a Lotus? Makes it hard to justify spending big money on a old, but not really old, Ferrari.

 

LightGuy - 14 day thread ban for failing to understand that a question can morph as one gains knowledge, and instead of helping, calling out the member repeatedly for his inquisitive nature.

Watch the thread, you can't comment for 14 days. If you come back to the thread, try to make useful comments about the question asked, instead of useless comments about the person asking them.

Hi Shark01 I hope you continue to engage on this thread as I think it's a fascinating one and I believe most do not take umbrage about your clarifications on your exact wants; that's part of the fun!

Given you are not fancy to 2+2 (nothing wrong with this) the 348 line would be a natural conclusion. Specifically, the 348 Challenges or the SS mentioned above is a great candidate.

Let us know if you eventually go with it!

Cheers

 

WOW!

348 SS just went for 55K
looks similar to the one above..same one?

 

It is the one above. Same VIN.

Haven't looked at many results yet but I think my feelings of a "still dropping market" are being validated.

 

I had a tech from Norwoods at the vintage grand prix at The Glen in 2016 tell my wife and I that the 348 was really a great car and that like the mondial, didn't derseve some of its bad press. We were still shopping for a car at the time so I went to get some ideas and talk to owners etc. Find some owners who have a few cars on you list and then you can have some first-hand knowledge. There's so many ideas on here from some great posts, that we all are getting a bit of education which is great !

Where did you get these figures? 430 an estimate? Do we think they made less 360 in 7 years than they did 430s in less than 5 model years?

 

Very easy answer: in a nutshell, almost two thirds of all the carbed 308 GTS produced were sold in the USA.

Carbed 308 GTS SALES (not production):
1978: 885, of which 558 for the USA
1979: 1060, of which 656 for the USA
1980: 1250, of which 918 for the USA
Total: 3195 cars, of which 2132 for the USA.

Factory figures. 430 is an estimate, because the factory stopped confirming the total production starting with that model. But yes, it is more than 20.000, and they produced more 430 than 360.
