Canadian MSRP 458 Italia

One source said 250k CDN base price for the 458. The price has to account for the Canadian import duty to. Nothing is official yet, however some people already paid a big premium in advance to be towards the front of the line here with their order.

Good luck with that! The 430 Spider listed at 296,000.00 before you started adding options, there's no way a 458 is going to be priced under the previous model.

 

Traditionally, I too would have bet on pricing being higher than the outgoing model -- but the Canadian dollar is the wild card this year -- that could really throw a monkey wrench into the equation.

A high dollar with the 430 never impacted Canadian prices for the longest time because the significantly lower US MSRP for a 430 was always offset by US $ premiums over MSRP that offset the MSRP difference making virtually no sense to import into Canada....but the world is a different place now

The handful of Canadian dealers are a drop in the FNA bucket -- so I don't think FNA is influenced too much by what these dealers have to say.

Remember in 08 when they provided a hidden price drop in the F430's by including $20K ceramics as a no cost option on Canadian models.

I visualize the pricing to be higher than the current f430 by$1,000 or so -- too save face -- but to include WAY more options

 

Does anyone really know what is Ferrari's North America pricing policy for Canada?
What is the pricing logic? Is it really related to the US vs CDN dollar? Are Ferraris priced in US for Canada plus premium?...anyway if msrp logic follow the California pricing which is 192m US msrp and 230m$ US for the 458 you should expect the cdn price to be around 290.
We pay like a 20% premium plus transport, gas guzzler and 6% custom. So find out what is the California exact Canadian msrp and add 35-40 m to it. Most luxury car maker charge a 15-20% premium for Canada.

 

Someone's dad on here has one of the first ones coming and If I recall correctly he said it should be right around $250,000 nicely optioned.

 

I heard the same thing from someone that has one in order. 250$ base price
...if this happen to be the final base price...a big if...since its cheaper than the California cdn base price.... the California actual base price 33 US cheaper? 192 vs 225 i got from on the 458 chat. I would be surprise to see them LOWER the California price ...but everything is possible and maybe for once we will benefit from our stronger loonie! ...at 225 plus 6% custom transport and gas guzzler we add it up to THE 250!! Makes sense??
That brings me to my first question earlier...What is Ferrari N.A. pricing policy for Canadian car???

 

I notice that several people have stated guys have F458's on order, including a F-driver at my local gym who told me he put 50k down on one.

This morning I was talking to a F430 driver, and I mentioned the above, he said that Ferrari aren't even taking orders until September??

So can you actually order one now or not??, just curious.

 

I don't think that's true, the guy I was talking about a few posts above said he was GETTING his in September!

 

Some people already donated money to a charity for the chance to order an early delivey 458 in Ontario. This event was done with the help of FNA. How early is the question but September would seem reasonable. These people will receive the first cars sold into Ontario. The rest will depend on the allocation numbers available but Ferrari seems to be taking orders farther ahead of a delivery date than for past models.

Thanks for the update.

De-ja vu?

 

Nice way to support the charity and Remo doesn't have to decide who gets the first one. Three cars was a result of 3 serious bidders the first time years ago. They said why not one car for each person at the current high bid and FNA said OK. So it's 3 cars and more money for charity than if only one car was offered.

I was at FOO about a week ago and they said it was about 285ish base price. Sorry I don't remember the exact price.

They also said that they don't honour the warranty on US cars from 2009 on!

 

Any information on Canadian price for this car, list of options/prices, availability ?

 

Threads merged.

 

Two 458's arrived at FOO on Friday. One of those two showed up at the Yorkville car show on Saturday. I never asked price, but obviously it's been decided if two people have already picked their's up.

 

A gent in Calgary has had his car for a few weeks now. He was one of the few who did the charity thing. The car has been spotted all over town, and he even had it out at the track. Seeing the Alberta thread for photos/video.

 

My Dad 's arrived last week. Apparantly it is quite the machine.... damn, I might need to fly up to T.O to take it for a spin.

I still haven't seen one in the flesh yet, but Ferrari of Tampa will be bringing one to an event in Naples tomorrow, so I'm looking forward to that!

 

^Look what the cat dragged in! Enjoying the beaches, amigo?

 

LOL, I still lurk around this section now and then. Definately still enjoying the beaches, let me know if you ever make it down to this neck of the woods. Beers are on me.

Forget about options and taxes for a moment.......and assume both cars are spec'd the same as base models, which may be the case.

$225K USD MSRP x 1.05 FOREX.......X 1.061 DUTY.......+ $4,000 enviro tax.......+ $3,850 dealer prep.......+ $2,500 freight.......$100 AC excise tax.......+$200 RIV......equals $262K CAD + TAXES for a US 458 imported to Canada......versus our base MSRP of $288K + taxes equals a $26K gouge to the Canadian buyer.......

Ouch !!!
