I'm having trouble starting new threads under my usual user name, hence the different profile.

Anyway I was asked to start collecting 458 prices so I made a change to my program and am now compiling the data. As per the 430 thread I don't really have time to go into this in any real detail but will try my best to provide as much as I can.

For 360 prices see here and for 430 prices please see here.

Please, please don't ask me to start collecting info on any other tipo!

As this is the first month there is no price index. I will be keeping the Coupe and Spider prices separate as they are two very different markets. Also, the prices cannot be divided by gearbox either as there is no choice these days. Note, there were no private ads when I got the data.

Here's the table for coupe prices split by colour.



Here are the coupe prices plotted against year - a trend has already appeared where early cars are priced at a decent discount to more recent ones.



And here's the chart for coupe mileages. Apart from one outlier, there's not really much of a spread and I suspect that equipment and year is more of a driver of price when everything has such low numbers on the clock.



Onto the Spiders - here's the table for colour. This is the first time I've seen a non-red colour with the most number of ads.



Year doesn't really tell us much as they haven't been in production for enough time.



And here are the mileages:



Cheers...
