458 prices crystal ball time!!!

[icebite78]

Apologise first and foremost as I am admittedly cross threading here
From Supercar general where it's a bit quite.


Obvious crystal ball question really....is it worth waiting for the 458M to be announced to see the 'old' 458 to soften in price or do we think the price difference between the two will be huge and not affect prices as much as i would hope!!

Or as the future is 3.8 litres twin turbo charge the macca mp4 12c is looking like good value at the minute on the subject of the macca why is it that it seems to be the forgotten super car? After reading reviews and watching youtube
it seems to be in very high regard by various people such as Sutcliffe and 'monkey'

I wouldn't expect the 458's to change much initially. I've no doubt in time it will be the car to have being the last of the normaly aspirated V8's and the best of its type.

I think the early 12c's were treated like mule's an early development car if you like. Doesn't make them a bad car tho!

should see a nice drop over winter and into 2015,, they seem a bit stuck at 150k atm for the nice ones.
Makes the macca look great value at £115k atm

they seem to be heading in the 'right' direction and from main dealer too

still makes the macca seem cheap imo

I saw that 458 the other day - its in beautiful condition and they suggested there was a deal to be done too

[icebite78]

so where would the trade bid be circa 120ish?

According to other threads weren't were only trading at 120K a year ago? So imagine they are worth less around 100K now, the guys in the 'know' will be along shortly to tell you to hang on to December as they will be 430 money by then....MML!

I drove this car. Been for sale forever and ever and ever. Nice car. Just they tried too long to sell it for 160k.

I wouldn't have been suprised to see the left hookers trading at that kind of level however I px'd my 2010 458 recently and got a decent deal on it, despite being told that I'd get tuppence for it.
I think it'll be a couple of years before they get down to 430 levels, at that point I'd expect 430 's to be very close to 360's.

What about the macca....must be a performance bargain no? or is the 458 that much better.

12C is a brilliant brilliant car in spider form. I'm buying a Speciale too, but I won't be dropping the Mac.

At low hundreds it is untouchable value. I would have one over a 458 every day.
