£1k for Stage 1 ECU clone
£450 for geometry
£800 for helmholtz exhaust
I stand corrected although stage 1 is much cheaper if you exchange ecus

Low owner ones are few and far between as I think lots of people have bought these, used for a year and sold. No point buying low miles if you plan to drive it. Just check it's been maintained.

Alfaworks exhaust imho is better than the sports exhaust so consider that if you find a car without a sports zorst
Yes I was considering getting my sport exhaust upgrade to AW one. Their carbon tips looks so nice. But decided to just keep my stock sport exhaust as I don't run on motorway that much so can live with the exhaust drone every now and then.

11 in total which is where it has been for a short while. Spiders in the right colour / spec are like hen's teeth!
Was close to 20 when I last check a few weeks back. Down to 9 now both coupe and spider combined. This is going to be a good support to the residual value.
Some of the ones for sale are not actually for sale as the companies have gone down and the adverts continue to be auto re-listed.

Who's seen the leaked Maserati MC20 pics? It looks okay but not as good as I hoped. I think the 4C looks prettier. I thought the unofficial early renders looked better with the F8 style bonnet etc that looked like a super-4C. They have definitely tried to make it look like a mini MC12 from the front. Rear looks a bit Honda NSX with the lights. The pricing sounds more reasonable than I expected though, I thought they'd way overprice it.

Oh and I wish it was an Alfa 6C instead

I think so yeah. Engine shares a lot in common with the Giulia quad engine.

I sort of like it, but I don't see where it sits in the market? If it's really ~200k then it's dead on arrival surely. 570s replacement due any minute which will probably destroy it for less money, if you need anymore practicality a 992 Turbo S will do the same for even less!

I want to like it but, just feels like it's going to flop massively.

Autocar call it an Audi R8 rival, so I think it's more like £120-140k range

Interesting exchange with a dealer this week. They offered me trade ( i am not seeling BTW ) of £26k!

When I pushed back and advised them to check AT, price trend etc, they came back with £30k

Not bad given I paid £3k more than this 12 months ago

Prices are starting to firm up. Very few cars on the market. We have sold 3 off market in the last few weeks. Really nice to see only 10 cars for sale.
