Ferrari For Sale For 25K Over List
The economic barometer is showing some uncertain times ahead or is it. We have been informed that some new Ferraris for sale are selling for more than there list price. It seems there are plenty of customers willing to pay a hefty premium for the new 458.
One report suggests that the new 458 Italia is in such demand that eager buyers are competing to bypass the three-year waiting list by paying more than £25,000 over the £170,000 list price.
UK deliveries of the 458 will begin in the summer for those customers lucky enough to be at the head of the queue, and intense competition for the earliest cars is driving prices skyward, according to a news release from Glass's.
"It's not unusual for the first examples of Ferraris to change hands for inflated prices before the first owners take delivery, but the premium required to Buy one of the early 458s is exceptionally high - a reflection of just how desirable it is," says a source at the publication.
Finding a Ferrari for sale or should I say, the latest Ferrari model available is hard at the best of times but we believe the 458 Italia will hold its price for the next three years and demand will out strip supply.
