Any chance that the 458 Speciale won't be that special once the 488 GTB lands?. I'm told that the 488 GTB is so good that it surpasses the 458 Speciale in all areas and will we see more Speciales for sale soon with prices take a downward dive?.

Thanks guys...

Maff, the reason why I'm asking the question is because I'm in the market for a LHD Speciale. I missed out on a great car couple of months back from Joe Macari and now kicking myself. Some of the UK dealers ha now gone bonkers pushing the LHD car prices to near of the RHD which IMO is insane. I'm looking to import one from Europe to save some pennies.

I just don't want to be caught up in the heat wave now paying premium price only to find them dropping after the 488 GTB lands.

Cheers.

Thanks Chris, you are lucky to buy one at sub 200k.... the one I mentioned was asking for 195k and I could of had it for a lot cheaper and that was only 2 months ago. I have driven a friend's RHD Speciale which has prompted me to buy one BUT I'm not willing to get my balls ripped off so to speak by some UK independent dealers. They are seeking them through the same channels and slapping on their massive margin IMO.

This will also be my 1st Ferrari so very much looking forward in owning one.

So... anyone have a LHD one for sale? I'm not interested in buying one from the UK dealers with their silly asking price.

Cheers

I have thanks and have been looking on mobile.de constantly. I saw the yellow one for sale awhile back for 170 Inc and now he wants 170+VAT. Viewed the black one from Joe Macari and before I got back to them, it was sold for a cracking price. Missed out really NVM.
