How rare is Rosso Scuderia on the 458?

The Rosso Scuderia paint came along with the 2004 Challenge Stradale and cars with that paint commanded a price premium. Rosso Scuderia and the stripe were the ultimate Stradale combination dollar wise. Add leather for the interior and the car was triple rare.
The Scuderia buyers also chose that Rosso Scuderia paint but it became less popular on the Italia. Unfortunately I don't recall seeing very many of the Italia models painted that color. About 35 percent of Ferrari models are painted Rosso Corsa so finding Rosso Scuderia will be tough on the Italia.
Good Luck with your search!

It’s Orange

 

A friend's:

 

There seem to be many choices on sale in the US market if you are not restricted by color choice. So it is mostly a buyer's market.
Price is always subjective depending on condition, color and to a lesser extent options. The big items seem to be shields, shift lights on the steering wheel and the race seats.
Unmodified cars are a preference to and geographic location can be a challenge if the car is sitting on the other side of the country. The huge selection of American cars seem like a bargain compared to prices and availability here in Canada!

 

Had RS on my 458, have it now on my Speciale. Great color on both IMO!

Interesting tid bit: when I took delivery of my Speciale I noted that it looked more "red" than my '12 458. So I checked the paint code on both and sure enough the codes were different. Apparently PPG changed the RS formula sometime between '12 and '15 so RS has less orange in it.

Either way RS "pops" next to red corsa which is darker.

Cool to have a rare great color at no extra cost........

Best!

My 2018 488 is in Rosso Scuderia and I love it.

 

Love RS speciales

 

Very interesting details regarding the RS formula being changed. Not sure many people were aware of that detail.
Some people complained about Rosso Corsa also being changed from a previous formula and not for the better either. If I recall correctly Rosso Corsa changed after 2006 model year cars.
You need a score card to figure out all these paint numbers for different paint formula choices. The factory paint sticker is certainly an accessible and effective way to keep up with Ferrari paint color changes!

 

I used to have a couple of early Porsches in a very similar color but Porsche called it Tangerine at the time and was definitely more orange than the current RS shade. The current RS color looks more like Porsche color Guards Red. IMO

The Autotrader registered search works really well, it is how I got my 612 after just missing 3 others by hours of a day or two.

 

There was a beauty at FoFL for months. I looked at it and wound up taking a Rosso instead.

 

They had one for sale that was a 2011 with > 1500 miles at algar that sold under $190k just a few weeks ago

Is it my eyes ..or does the top of the car look a lighter shade than below?

 

I have had 7 Scuderia red's and by far the best red!

Sold my Speciale a few months back and now have a 2018 Spyder.
