The Cost to Own a 430 Scuderia

Car currently sitting on Cars and Bids at just above $140k.

They have a bunch of service receipts posted with it. Interesting to see what fluids they've used and some of the repair costs. Looks like a bunch of off-the-shelf stuff you could get at Walmart.

Mobil1 Gear Oil
Peak Coolant (You'd think this at least would be something special)
Castrol Edge 5W40
Penz Platinum Euro Bulk 5W40

Also looks like that by 22,000 miles the clutch is at ~80% used

$2200 throw out bearing replacement.

$62 Ferarri oil filter

Somewhere along the line they needed to do a heli-coil on something. Exhaust from the looks of it.

Pay to play indeed. Service records start at picture #77.

Something I didn't know, and maybe some CA members can speak to this. Car repair shops are required to set tire pressures to factory recommended spec as per state law?

The blanks and water stains in/on the center console look disgusting.

Interior looks worn and tired looking...since it's California ask if it passed it's last emissions test lol

It certainly looks to have the 'sticky button' issue that I've heard Ferrari has been having for some time.

That and it looks like a drunk person tried to put the ignition key in it about 100 times and missed.

$886 for four TPMS sensors. Wild.

I wonder if it was in an exotic car rental fleet by the way that interior looks?

 

[Jimmy_Russells]

My favorite car of all time

 

[Owen Lucas]

About $100k overpriced with that interior.

Ok, I have to ask, what is everyone seeing wrong with the interior? The only thing I see is the banged-up ignition key area and the sticky buttons. Anything else is just marks on the Alcantara that would change if you rubbed it a different way.

 

[Jetronic]

the carpets look dusty, that's all.

 

[NISMO_JUNKY]

Seats look quite comfortable, but I couldn't look at that red as a daily driver.

Those quality plastics and materials in that may have come from same supplier for Chrysler of 2000’s under Cerebus.

 

[Escape08]

Looks like someone broke in into the car and try to start it by picking a device into the keyhole (I'm not surprised if this happened because the car is in LA, Cali) or the owner is very upset because the car has too many problems

 

[Silver]

Kiarrari?

 

[Oliveoil2]

If you have to ask, you shouldn’t own it.

Makes Porsche ownership seem low budget.

Looks like the passenger side front quarter panel was repainted because the paint is essentially twice as thick as all the other surfaces. Looks otherwise mint aside from the area around the ignition. Not of fan of these F1 inspired cockpits with carbon fiber everywhere.

It's a shame that so many of these cars are bought but not driven because the maintenance is so expensive.

It's more because of resale value. Once a Ferrari reaches 10k, the value plummets. The more modern ones (360 onward) are not nearly as much to maintain as the older ones (355 previous).

If someone wanted to actually buy one to drive, one like this is a good candidate.

Amusingly enough, I did a quick google of the CNC Motors from the invoices in the pictures and its looks like they were in some shady stuff.

I think the Ferrari 360 is the first north south F-car engine with timing belts that can have an engine-in timing belt service. That's significant $avings. 5 year/30,000 mile intervals.
