F430's under $100k these days....

[91 X]

Seen some pretty clean examples lately under $100k

Started talking about cars you can get under $100k these days and was shocked to see these beautiful cars are now starting to fall under $100k

Was thinking I wanted a Cayman GT4 , but these have me rethinking that

2006 w/32k $85,000

I struggle to find beauty in any F car after the 355.

I struggle to find beauty in any F car after the 355.

Funny, I think after the 355, starting with the 360 is when Ferrari finally started making a proper sports car

I think we can thank the NSX for the swift kick in the ass:biggrin:


If I had the money a 458 would be first car I'd add to my collection

Perfection

I love the 430 and have noticed this also. There’s only a few cars I would sell my Nsx for and this is one.

how are the scuds holding up? that would be my choice for the 430.

Double the price of admission of a regular 430 and rightfully so. Such timeless lines and the most rewarding driving experience

 

[docjohn]

amazing that the type R version would be double, but that is similar to the nsx in Japan right?

Last time I checked scuds were holding nicely. One of my friends fathers has had one for about 6 years now and loves it.

They're beautiful, and sound wonderful. But wait until you have to pay for a major service.

Yep !

As 91 X says, seeing some apparently really nice 2005-2007 F430's for sale now at the $100-120K range, ones that would have been priced in the upper $130's to $155 K just 4-6 years ago..........I believe they are still coming down, but pretty close to their depreciation bottom for the next couple of years. Presently ~ $155 K buys a really nice 2008 and maybe even 2009 (not many 2009's out there I don't think, other than Scuds and 16M's). Right now there is a 2009 F430 on fleabay w/18xxx miles for $125K!

I've always longed for an F430, but still cannot fathom folding two of our NSX's in to get into one. Relatively cheap oil changes and Honda reliability are also considerations - spoiled me! I think if I ever did move into an F430 it would have to be a Scuderia - prices on them have also moved downward. Now seeing a few decent Scuds (with miles, that is) in the $180-210 K range, and those were $230-245 K a few years back. I could solve my "not-enough garage space" dilemma :redface: and fold in three NSX's for this stunning example:

But then I'd bitch about the price of parts (few aftermarket parts alternatives for F cars) and the ridiculous charges for service.. . . . . does not keep me from slobbering on my keyboard when I view the pics of this one, though. :smile:

Regarding 458 Italias, they are depreciating quickly IMO - some are showing up F S on FChat below $200K now. Ferrari seems to have made so many of them.

There seems to be a low end price right now on the 458's at $159,995 as several on Autotrader have that exact price...there is a couple cheaper then that, but it's the $159k price that several are posted for right now.

There is a nice f430 private owner listing right now on Autotrader for $92k right now

H-

Yeah, but at least starting with the F430's they don't require the engine out like the previous models.

430's are cheaper to maintain then the 360's .....but you better have a healthy savings account for something major goes wrong regardless I'm sure

 

[whiteNSXs]

The biggest difference in prices among 430 depends on F1 tranny vs manual.
The F1 is so jerky.

I've been window shopping, too.

F355 IMO is gorgeous, but after driving a 95 Berlinetta I was underwhelmed. Majors are mondo $ unless you DIY, which I planned to. I don't find 360s attractive. F430s are gorgeous, but good luck finding a 6MT anywhere near $100k.

I find myself looking pretty intently at 997 GT3s.

 

[docjohn]

haha 355's are like risotto.....plenty of glorious noises and average go..

Like my car. It will rape your ears as it's getting passed by a new Altima.

 

[cccoltsicehockey]

F355 and F430 look great. Never cared for the F360. The fact you can do your own maintenance a little easier on the F430 makes it a bit nicer too however I would really want a scud too over the regular one. The 458 is nice but he 458 speciale or 488 look better in my opinion.

Hahaha this is so true. Only having owned mine a short while but everyone says man that thing must be fast and it sounds so good. I just laugh and say yeah it does sound good but it is the slowest car I own and the other cars all have 4 doors.
