Ferrari Mailing List: Re: After-action report on 2007 F430

(continued)

I may have missed this but how does one arrive at the Clyde price?  Is it 

the price they are advertising at other locations - web, dealers in other 

cities, FML (assuming it's a Ferrari), etc?

Or does one take 20% off the asking price?

Sorry if this has been discussed and I missed it.   I'm not in the market at 

the moment but one of these days my wife will need a replacement.

Thx

Listen you have to buy cars like these "like a drug deal" you go in with
cash!
Never an offer, the only offer you should get is from a women!
Go rent some Miami Vice CDs' its all there.
When I bought my TR they said the same shit and the 512  was still hot and
they were making them and FML had dozens of them listed.
But FAF wanted this red thing gone from there lot!

I told him that I fly for a smile and whats $100 in phone calls if I plan 

to

buy a $125K car!
I left for a 4 trip day on Monday, told them I was going to LAX, MIA and
SFO(all of this was a lie, I wasn't going to any of these cities but they
had Ferrari dealerships there and they knew it) and then home and I would
find a car there at my price, buy Wednesday my phone was on FIRE!

Another key is to mention that this approach is only bulletproof with
*depreciating* cars.

The Clyde operation may have less than typical results with a hot 

collector

car.

Years, ago, I was looking at a vintage Shelby. I found one and the buyer 

was

asking $81k. I asked him what his full name was and when he could show it.

I had a cashier's check from a local bank made out for $76k in his name. 

No

stories, no BS, no discussion of whether I was serious or not. When it 

came

time to negotiate, I gave him the check...then excused myself from the

garage so he and his buddy could discuss, savor and sweat with the check 

in

their hands.

I came back in about 10 mins later and he refused, returning the check. I
was shocked and thanked him. He sold the car 3 days later for full price
since they are desirable.

Chances are that an F430 will never qualify for this type of situation.

The CLYDE negotiaton technique hinges on one key point that Jim's 

experience

misses.

You don't walk in the door with an OFFER.

You walk in the door with a CHECK.

Two totally-different situations, the latter forces the 

dealership/salesman

to deeply consider the wise adage: "A bird in the hand is worth two in the

bush".  The latter also washes-away any and all doubt about one's ability 

to

pay, or obtain financing.  Lots of people talk the talk, after all.  I'm
more-inclined to believe that had Jim laid a check on the hood of the car,
the salesman would have worked to find a way to cash that check, not B.S.
Jim to write a new one.  Just my 0.02 cents.

I bet they'll call you in 30 days to negotiate...

Well,

Went in and offered them what I thought was a fair offer.

(effectively $140k, likely too much - but still)

Their response was to come down from $159.9 to $157k.

LOL

I feel I have now done my best to "keep it in state".

If anyone knows of any good (no stories, well-serviced) F430's - and
someone actually wants to SELL it to a bonafide buyer - please think of
me.
