Unique, Very high spec car but not sure the wheels and additional carbon skirt would be to my personal taste ( the capristo exhaust is circa £10k alone but as good as it is I didn't want to pay that much )

Jack at Scuderia systems has quoted me circa £5K for a full Scud system. Another example of the Stirling / Euro favour - Great time to be in the market for Euro products! smile

Buyers remorse ? As still showing for sale tonight

Think ultra low mileage cars will still command a premium to go into a collection but having taken over 3 months to sell a mint Rosso Scuderia perfect spec 15,000 mile car with 18 mths Ferrari warranty for just £175k in February there are some run of the mill cars which are never going to realise their advertised prices. I could of put mine up for £190k compared with some of these advertised prices but then I'm sure I would be still sitting on it. The market talks and the increased availability of good LHD scuds has got to have an impact on these RHD cars now
I suppose the next 6 months will paint a better picture on how accurate the prices are on rhd Scuds

What you waiting for ?

Get it done at that price ! Capristo on my F355 is absolutely superb and worth every penny. Sounds even better than Scud IMHO

What are you referring to with stage 1 and stage 2 for a Scud?
Stage 1 - manifolds
Stage 2 - 200 cel cats and muffler

So it's actually well over £10k?

So you don't need to pay for stage 1? Stage 2 includes it, or is instead of it? The point I'm sure he was making was the price of stage 1 + stage 2.

I thought stage 2 was cats and muffler, not including the manifolds which are stage 1? I was adding the 2 costs together, but you are taking it that stage 2 is including the manifolds? (that's not how Capristo list it on their web site but of course Scuderia systems might combine it differently)

Sounds like a great price for stage 2. Worth every penny.

Agreed, exchange rate is really helping then. How much are you factoring in for fitting though ? That's got to be an extra £500 minimum

What do you get for £10k out of curiosity?
I look at after market systems occasionally for my 512 but I've seen before/after dyno sheets showing hp/torque losses in some cases and weight savings that are not what you could call significant.
Maybe things have moved on but I wouldn't think there'd be a lot to gain on the standard Scud exhaust?
Seems like a lot of cash to change the exhaust note when it's ok standard?

Do you get Check Engine Lights with it fitted? What's the benefit of something like this, is it purely sound or other things too? Might get one for my Scud but I'm a technical dinosaur.

Approx 25/ 30 BHP more (not that it needs it) 25kg less and 'the noise'

Don't believe the hype on the horsepower increases - it does have better throttle response and is lighter but the best part about it is the noise! You really don't need it but its great to have if you have the spare cash lying about burning a hole in your pocket.

I'm not sure it is hype on the horsepower increases, Capristo posts youtube videos of the dyno before and after fitment. Granted it is not a peak horsepower gain of 40 hp but is a mid range gain which I would judge as actually more beneficial.
