RMA track days:

Donnington 7th March unsilenced £295 and then one on 11th April £320

Much cheaper than a 997 GT3 RS wink

Still got the sports cats sitting on the shelf that I bought 2 years back.
Get enough complaints that car is too loud from the neighbours, God knows what would happen if I installed them hehe

Seriously...? I thought the guy was a bit of a muppet tbh. Overuse of the word 'raw' lol.

Sorry... Limited vocabulary and superlatives glossed over with half decent footage...

RM Sotheby's sold a CS yesterday in Paris. Hammer price €150000, this is €171600 including costs and VAT.

Not a bad price imo! Some pics and history: http://www.challenge-stradale.com/138735.html

Website said it sold for 168 Euros, seems like a good buy IMO in comparison to asking prices(?)

This yellow CS seems to have been for sale for ever. Also it seems to have been sold at auction just a bit over a year ago at a higher price than what it achieved now so the assumption must be that the seller lost money.

It would be great if it has been bought by someone who wants it for more than just an investment

I quite like the interior. Wouldn't swap it for my red / black launch colours but still looks good.

Those CS logo mats look nice. Wonder where they came from?

Poor grammar too. It's possible that he's spent too much time inside a gym, rather than reading books.

At least he tried.

My Stradale is up in the forsale section again so just thought I'd give the reason in case any body wonders. I accepted a verbel offer that's why the advert was removed. But after three weeks of waiting and phone calls it turned out to be a complete time waster. I'm not under the same time scale as I was in January due to a couple of reasons. So I have priced the car at what I think is a fair price. Just thought I'd post this because I know I check the ads all the time and would be wondering why.

I saw your add again the other day and I wondered if it could help to switch out the rear grill and filler cap for standard Stradale ones. I appreciate it is a Cornes edition but those two parts of the spec are unlikely to be to most people's taste. Other than those little bits the car looks awesome. Right colour, the red/black alcantara interior and factory stripe plus Schumacher's signature on carbon is pretty cool! Its just that rear grill. Was thinking if you explained in the add that you had the rear grill and filler cap safely boxed up to be supplied also with the car then new owner would know it can easily be put back to stock (although doubt they'd want to) at a later date but would look much better for your ad. Just a thought

You maybe right, the rear grill and filler cap are not to every bodies taste. Personally I think they look better when you see the car in person. But I will give it some thought it maybe a option.

The fuel cap will be easy to swap, the rear grille however: good luck finding an original one.

I'm sure its easier/cheaper/quicker to get it striped and repainted. Its the original part and for whatever reason, if a future owner wants it white again he can do the same.
I'd also get a main dealer stamp for a service. Although i know in many cases indies can be better (and I use them too for the 308 & 355) for the strad it has to be main dealer. I know when I was looking, it was critical that it had main dealer and also frequent (which yours does) but the record is a bit spoiled by the indie. Also when I sold my 993 and a friend sold his 355 last year, both had dealer stamps from new, for every year of their life, the cars sold within a week and to the first viewing, at asking!

Surely can oder one from Ferrari? Appreciate will cost a lot but not in relation to the value of the car
