Testarossa price decline?

Anyone else notice the steady drop in Ferrari Testarossa prices lately? Some of them aren't hitting the 55K mark with perfect service records!?

Strange, 328 prices are on the rise.

Yeah maintenance is bad. It runs about 10-12K for the factory authorized 30K service. But if you only put 7K miles a year, I dont think tahts way out of line to spend that every 4 years or so. Theres a big difference between a 308 and the V12 in the TR.

According to some of the f-chat guys, the major service runs about 6K, down to about 3500 depending on if the waterpump was already replaced or is in good shape.

Other than that, as long as you were gental on the car, she wouldn't nuke the motor or clutch. More expensive than the viper yes, but in relative terms, it's not bad at all really.

I drove the viper almost every day and on the weekends, and still didn't manage to put more than 2K miles on her in 8 months LOL!

308,328's are cars you can do yourself. A TR is a nightmare for up keep. Unless you like pissing money away...dont buy a TR. Stick with a 308 or 328. Late production 348's are not too bad and 355 are expensive. The 360's are actually cheap in comparison to the older models to keep running well. Ferrari Prices across the board are flat. The market is flooded as are most other exotics.

I can work on any car, just depends how much of a bitch she is [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I still like the lines of the 348 the best overall (lusted after one in highschool) but the power output sucks. A 360 would be a blast (coupe) but I prob couldn't swing it plus the other cars I want.
