Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Fast N Loud TV Program

[Erik Nielsen (judge4re]

Not that special, 7k miles on it, fresh $22k service.

Be warned, several parts for these cars are NLA, so service prices aren't getting any cheaper and restoring a hard hit car with OEM parts is a pipe dream.  Still plenty of buyers out there and when Ferrari SpA is looking to see what is in your garage when allocating LaFerrari slots, it does pay to play...

Yikes!  That must have had 8 miles on it and was owned by the Pope!  Of course  they aren't making any more of them but I gotta think there was something special about it...

Extremely low mileage F40's are doing around $500K now.

So I'm laying in bed (it's been 8 weeks mostly) while my new knee heals and I'm bored so I check out Comcast On Demand and find a program called Fast N Loud..  They're a shop in Tx that buys cars, fixes them and sells them.

So a guy shows up with a trailer and a wrecked F40 in the back.  The Fast N Loud guy says Wow - that's a million dollar car fixed up!  The seller wants $400K and the body is broken along each side and all the bodywork forward of the windshield is gone. 

I cannot imagine drivable F40 going for a million.  A broken one like this would bring more than 100K IMO - and I know almost nothing about the prices for this stuff.

There's not much on the net about prices other than 1 in UK with 42K miles for  £330 So I think my initial impression was right - that paid WAY too much for that car showing a complete ignorance for Ferrari values.  Of course the seller made out great!

Well, no more of that program!  Those guys are stupid!   Back to my tapes of Le Mans!   Let me know if my logic is wrong....

Take care -
