I wouldn't touch that ferrari even if sonny bought it for me. Never liked those anyways but that one screams run for the hills.
 
Man, even if you bought that Ferrari and left it untouched in your garage for 5 years you're gonna make money on it. I'm betting 5% per year for the first 2-3, and then 10% for the next few.

Basically what Im saying is, there isn't gonna be a single Testarossa in the world selling under $100k in 2020. Just my opinion.
 
Problem is as sonny said, depends on who does the work. What condition the interior is really in... service is no biggie but parts if needed will be. Personally I'd still take a 348 over that. It's little brother with issues i know but it's ten times better looking. :dontknow:
 
Eventually the details just don't matter. Look how much a trashed early 911S goes for nowadays for example... people will pay big dollars and then even more to restore and fix em.
 
Praise be I just found out I gots a numbers matching Ford Ranger. Freedom 85 coming up.

Yeah I see your point there. The older it gets the more it's going to go up....
 
The vehicle of the day for me. I must have a bagged split window. My old bug was the best car ever. Shouldn't have sold it

why would anybody buy one and leave it "untouched", when I can invest at the bank and leave them "untouched" and I can tell you I am making way frigging more than a measley 5-10% on most of my investments.....


if you're gonna buy an exotic, or classic, enjoy the damn thing.
 
I meant untouched as in no restoration or heavy lifting. Leave the interior and body the way they are, inspect the hard parts and replace whatever essentials are necessary to enjoy the car. Then get all your money back (and much more) when you're tired of it.

Its one of Ferrari's most iconic cars of all time.. the values are gonna shoot to the moon on these very soon.
 
Just cause it's old and says Ferrari doesn't mean it's going to appreciate. Look at the 456 and 412
the testarossa wont be as desirable as The 512 TR will be.
and again as always condition matters in anything 80's and up.

They can afford to charge those prices... and people who can afford such high end hobby cars probably don't care about the premium. At least when you buy from them, you can be sure about what you're getting.

They are hit and miss . Some stuff is just stupidly priced and some stuff is right. I have offered on a few cars there but they won't budge

Those are 2+2 cursed cars :) I don't believe the testarossa will have that fate. We'll see eventually.

If the one I posted is even half way decent, a full engine out service can be done for less than 10k. I bet you could then enjoy the car for a solid 10-15,000km and easily get your money back and then some
 
If it ain't white, it ain't right...that is a beautiful car

Mmmnaked I'd be happy with the little v8 in the much smaller car. That's the poster car for me along with the willys I posted before
