Yea I see that....I bought an '08 in Oct 2011 for $195K with 2K miles and traded a year later for $178K (including the tax savings).....I think they've held their value very well....

There are number of ferrari owners who bought a SCUD again after selling it. The thing that I like about my SCUD is that it is so simple in the outside, exhaust sounds like no other car and it looks BADASS. It may not be the fastest car on the track but it sures sounds like it.

I am waiting on my PRODIGAL Pcar. I sold her 5 years ago and its been a long wait. I hope she would not be bitch when she arrives after I sold her for my First ferrari. I cannot afford 2 sports car then so I traded her. 2 more months to wait.

I looked at a '04 Rosso Challege Stradale at Barrett-Jackson on Wed.
it was disclosed there was a rear hit/no airbag deploy.
looked good abeit a small seat tear on Driver side.
I was going to bid as a long-term keeper, but wife said find a no-story Scud.
it just hammered for $84K!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AHHHHH!

I just saw that....initially thought what a steal...but with 30k miles and a collision its probably a fair price.

Agree.
I could not get the miles.
At least the clutch and other maintenance was just done>$11k.
This would have been a long term keeper.

You said it!

I actually traded a January allocation to a March allocation.
But I have to stick to my game plan. This car would be stuck most of winter time in my house so might as well spring time. The scud will do for now. I uncovered the scud today for a drive and every time I drive it is such an experience. I have not gotten over the wow over it yet.

I should have bought that. If you buy something like that, it should be a keeper. A STRADALE is one of the modern Fcars that I believe would be a classic.

84K? I would not even think twice even for the miles and history.

I saw this car it was a nice example. Are you sure it sold?

It was in the sold line with no sold sign on it.

Way to cheap.....

I did not witness the auction. its good i didnt. I would have made bid on it if it stayed below 100k. It would have been a good stable mate, GT3, SCUD and stradale.

New to the forum. Like both. GT3 more comfortable and refined ride enough to use as a DD, but still an exhilarating ride. Haven't been to 9K yet, but shift is smooth and quick, no drama all business. The 16M is hard edged and raw, its an EVENT to drive. Anything over 5K is a mechanical symphony, with the top down hard to hear anything. Shifting at 7-8K is a stiff kick in the back from the single clutch transmission. Wonder what the GT3 RS will be like?

Nice cars, it takes a lot of self control to control a scud.
