    Chassis no. 542 sold for $385,000 with commission at Bonhams Arizona sale, an outstanding car with non-original engine. I would use $385,000 as a benchmark.

    With a non-original engine does that really make it a "Benchmark"? Help!

    "Gold winner"?

    What exactly does that mean?

    In my mind "platinum" cars are about mid90 point cars.

    Gold, less than that?

    If a "gold" car is a 90-92 point car it needs A LOT.

    I can't imagine a "gold" car needs nothing.

    A 99 point car is 2x value of a 92 point or more.

    Use the sale as some sort of base line Figure the non-original engine accounts for a 10 to 20 percent haircut, work your way up or down accordingly. Have you ascertained that the car in question has its original engine?

    The Dino in question was spectacular, with paintwork by one of the top painters in the world (multiple class and overall wins at Pebble Beach). It was a double platinum winner (95 pts and above as per FCA standards) at Cavalino in 2001, and the Ferrari International Meet in LA in 2002 (also won the Dino Ferrari Award for the Outstanding 2-series Dino and owner involvement). And, as long as the engine is of the correct type, can be Ferrari Classiched even if non-matching numbers. A true platinum car is pretty special, as was this Dino.

    Michael Sheehan's Ferraris On Line is selling an unfinished Project Dino with needs for $339,500

    1970 Ferrari 246 GT Serial Number 00786 - main page


    "We are pleased to offer 1970 Dino (Ferrari) 246 GT “L” model s/n 00786, a true barn find Ferrari.... In 1988 246 GT s/n 0786 was sold to a corporate jet pilot and was sent to Terry Myr in Michigan for a total restoration ....going into storage for twenty-seven years!

    The rebuilt engine and transaxle are the correct “L” model type but the engine number on s/n 0786 is L 119 but should be in the L 195 range, while the transaxle number on s/n 0786 is N.275 but should be in the N.350 range."

    Does anyone know what the maroon (rosso rubino?) 1974 gts with Daytona seats went for at Dragone's auction in Westport CT yesterday? It was estimated $425-475k

    Hi,
    The answer is yes ..... typically between 25-30% premium in Europe , but looks to be much more when compared to US versions of F cars, typically.
    Regs,

    Prices haven't been crazy as of late, but there have also been several cars that aren't great selling at prices better than what one would say "makes sense".

    Candidly, I haven't seen a "great" car in some bit.

    It seems the market tends to be "good drivers" are getting prices that are on the "high" side but not impressive. Not impressive, but, is relative to the buyer.

    There are a handful of cars that I personally have targeted. Those, and I can't say they are on offer anywhere, head the market.

    The market isn't as easy to judge as what comes to auction/sale.

    Dino's aren't market movers, but they do demonstrate where markets are moving. A couple of hundred thousand bucks used to buy LOTS of stuff...... Today, who knows, but it might buy a Testarossa or Countach

    The cars that seem to be of the greatest interest at the moment are 206 and 246 L Series. I suppose a spectacular chairs and flares GTS will still break records in Monterey this summer.

    The Fantasy Junction car is missing its carburetor airbox which is different for the L series. I happen to have that airbox. Any idea what it would be worth should I offer it to them?

    Any thoughts on what my car might be worth - just ball park?

    I'm not a seller (or even that bothered about the value) but the insurance company are asking. It's a UK supplied RHD, Original Chairs and Flares car - I was told one of only 15 RHD chairs and flares built but I don't know if this is accurate? I would say it's in good condition, inside and out and mechanically but not pristine.

    I have one too and was offered £360K a year ago but refused.

    JD classics have a flared GTS for £520K so I guess you can take your pic, that was a top quality car after a full N&B resto

    With any insurance they will need a dealer valuation or look at other vehicles of that description, with not to many C&F cars on the market (I haven't seen one for over 3 yrs) then they are rare beasts.

    I would say your car is worth £450-500k depending on condition which I expect is very good, standard Dino GTS's are going for £350 to £400k, you don't want to sell it but if you did, I reckon you would get yourself £500k if you weren't in a rush, it's a very special car. Got a photo?

    I posted this in the "New Dino" thread. But thought it applies to this thread as well. So copy and paste.

    Didn't know whether to post this question here or on the "Market Value" thread. But was just curious how a new Dino might affect the values of our Dinos. It seems with other cars, when a new model is introduced after a hiatus, the interest in the previous model increases as well as the values. Cases in point may be the NSX or Ford GT?

    I feel the current value on Dinos is pretty healthy. But what do I know. Is there room to go higher? I'm guessing it's just market driven.

    Wow! That's pretty much double the number I gave them last year!

    The only pic I can find right now is an old one dating back to when I was taking advantage of my girlfriend being pregnant and therefore always sober (my daughter is now 11). The car has been resprayed orange since the photo (it was red in the pic) but was originally metallic purple...

    A quick google suggests there might have been as few a 6 RHD chairs and flares GTS dinos produced
