458 Your Thoughts On Sale Value of my 458 Spider

At $119k, I will buy the car. Just PM me with your information and I can have the money to you today.

 

I love that color combination.

 

Too late, you must sell to me at $119k! . In all seriousness, I think your price is about right, but I would remove the rear tail light smoke wrap for top dollar. Personally, I would not buy a car from someone that would do that. Why? Unfair? Probably because I associate those kind of modifications with someone reaching beyond their means, the whole "you can take the man away from the bus stop but can't take the bus stop out of the man" thing). It would make me think, unfairly I'm sure, that proper service was skipped because... Could/likely is unfair bias, but it is what it is. Others may feel the direct opposite.

The race seats support the value, despite higher miles, in my opinion. You may even get more. Start at $230k and settle for $219k.

 

i like your car

 

GLWS! Have a great weekend!

 

I didn't really notice the smoked lights at first. I like the monochromatic look but I've never seen it done to the headlights. Could be a problem for buyers from states with annual safety inspections (like TX for the next 12 months or so), but personally I'd put it up for sale as it is.

 

For what it's worth, my 2012 458 spider also has "smoked" taillights. When I looked into removing it, I learned it was originally specified this way BY FERRARI, as my car was originally a display car for Ferrari Manhattan. Moreover, it is not film--it is paint. To remove it, the taillights would have had to be sanded down, and it probably would have ruined them. Other option is to replace them. I just left it as-is and don't mind. Perhaps its just a sign of what was popular in the early 2010s.

 

^proof positive of bus stop theory.

Just kidding. Can never resist teasing Eric C.

 

great looking 458 nice spec

 

Awesome color combo. My favorite. I'd aim higher than what you may think due to how sharp and clean it looks, even with the higher miles.

good luck!

 

I googled that and still don't know what you just said.


Are you making fun of me for riding the short bus in high school?

 

no bro. Scroll up and read Kent Adams post. I was playing off that. (Post #5)

 

ya, still don't get it

 

Any decent bites at $219K?

 

Yep $213K appears to be spot on. You had 4 years of wonderful memories I’m sure so hopefully you seal the deal soon.

 

That may be the number considering today s ugly market. If it’s a clean deal it may be worth revisiting and be done with it. By the way the car looks spectacular. GLWS.
