    Seems like a steal to me, even assuming it needs a service. What was the stated mileage, what was the Carfax mileage inconsistency?

    That was the problem - no info at all other than colors, VIN and the "title in transit" statement. That tells me it was a quick flip. I bet the "owner" didn't know anything either.

    I noticed in looking at a lot of the cars in their inventory quite a few say mileage discrepancy.

    A few reasons for this. The speedometer, speedometer sensor, and cable are all known fault points. The second possibility is somebody purposely disengages the the cable or manipulates the counter, which is laughably easy as well.

    I’m talking about a lot of their cars not just the Ferrari models.

    Looks like teh David Carradine Mondial T Valeo is up for auction, AGAIN.

    Pros: It's a Valeo, it's black.
    Cons: It has 50,000 miles and seems to have changed hands a lot lately. Makes you wonder why?

    My gut tells me it keeps trading hands a low price, and that it is not being bought by the proper custodians. It probably needs about $10,000 worth of service to make it right, and the low price buyers are not prepared to make that commitment.

    Agree. Might even need double that amount in mechanical restoration. People STILL think these cars are "cheap", which I guess they are when comparing to a $50k top engine rebuild on a 365. But they're in a whole different orbit of cost and ease of repair if you're used to old Porsche's and American classics.

    What is the "70" for? (On the side flank, under the Pininfarina badge). I can't zoom in enough to read it.

    I like the "Daytona-style" seats, but I'm not thrilled about the color mix (tan/red) or the red dash & steering wheel.

    Definitely... different. o_O

    It looks like the 70th anniversay badge/logo and maybe the colors are fitting for the current "livery"?

    Especially in this climate. My friends in the business are saying used exotic business is very slow, particular for Ferrari. Most folks are betting the economic cycle to do it's thing anytime now.
