When I started looking in earnest at the start of the year GTB's were sub £150k & Spiders were £185k from main dealers. Now there is almost no availability & prices are up around £25k.
Some of this is summer, obviously, but do we think there is a general lift in prices that will last or is it a bubble that will burst?
Dealers are telling me that pure ICE Ferraris are in heavy demand because the hybrids are not very popular. Are they just talking up their book?

The general feeling appears to be that these prices are anything but artificial and are likely to continue rising over the coming years. You only have to look at the relatively limited demand for hybrids and how the values of those are depreciating compared with pure ICE cars.

Yep, can’t see it changing.
When a F8 Spider is £320k, a 488 is 95% the car for less than 2/3rds the cost.
Always thought the 488 was the most underrated of the mid engined generation.

There are other anomalies as well…. In the US, seven year old 812’s are now selling slightly above 2 year old 12C’s.

The availability of everything is really surprising. Just a few of each model available.

Doesn’t matter what the prices are if no one is selling.

At some point those that have been holding off selling will decide the price is right and then there could be plenty.
