Sadly 10 years ago I couldn't have thought about buying an F car, now I can and they are not available! I think I'll just wait and see what happens to the market, F is producing more cars than ever; they produced a ton of 360s and one can find one with very low miles for reasonable money these days and maybe in a couple of years the 430s might be a little more readily available.

Fred,

I am aware of that supply issue. It makes me wonder that maybe Ferrari should be cranking up the "MSRP" on those cars, not that I advocate it. . . .



430 has some $50K in possible options....a level of optionality not seen on 360...this may be F's subtle approach to ratcheting-up ASP's and profit margins (along w/incr'g proportion of Spiders vs Coupes), while quoting a relatively modest base MSRP......
It's brand suicide to ever have to reduce MSRP if US mkt for F's weakens again....allegedly, only 10 yrs ago, FoSF had multiple new red/tan 355Spiders sitting on the lot looking for a home....
