i wouldnt ever buy a salvage title car at that price.
the new Z06 kicks the snot out of this car hands down in every category for half the cost. even if you add cam and header package from LG and you have a 600 rwhp super car that would be a demon for 4k installed and tuned. thats my plan for next year 06'-07' Z06 G7X5 cam and long tubes. much sexier car than the ferrari IMO.
your right there are some people on this site that could buy this car, but its a small %. i could have bought it 3 years ago when my income would have supported a payment of 2-3k a month. for the guy that this was his 7th ferrari and the cheapest, that dumb **** needs to go to a driving school and learn something.

big difference between going into debt for 4-5 years for a C6 Z06 and/or spending lots of money over the years on modifications.....vs. that of being able to pay cash for a $120k car that's declared totaled.
even if someone has the $120k cash to buy it right now, it's probably not $120k in disposable income (which is what that rich guy who owns 5 more has).... this is more like, blood & sweat income that they'd rather do other things with....instead of buying a $120k car that's going to need major money put into it to fix the damage.

6. People that reply in threads to cause intentional harm to the sale, or troll and make immature comments could be removed from the site. Beating people down about pricing is uncalled for, although mature suggestions could be made, with examples. If you aren't interested in the vehicle, simply do not respond.
I expect people to joke around with offers like "paypal okay?" "take a ps2 slim and a dvd player?". But dont talk **** on a Ferrari, especially in my for sale ad if you have no intent on buying or complimenting. Thanks!

The price is fair for what kind of car it is. Most people wouldn't care about a salvage title if it were a good priced Ferrari. The Prez at the company I work for has a pewter colored one like this.
Not everyone on the site is broke, quite a few people could buy this. Especially some of the guys that hang out in the Conversions forum, with their $200K project car builds.
I'm the type that prefers multiple toys instead of one big expensive one though. I have about $212,000 worth of vehicles right now, but only two are paid off

Not to rain on your parade, but this car would get way more attention than a z06. I love vettes but this is a ferrari, there is no substitute. i mean you can make any car faster than this car as it sits, but its still a ferrari....

I been looking at this thread, people need to chill out, after all it is a "car for sale" thread. So what if many of the people that see this couldn't afford it, I know I can't, someone is just trying to make a sale. 99SSinOC thats one sweet car hope it sells for what you want good luck with it.

Ill bet that 99% of the people on this, or any site, when given the choice of this ferrari or a new z06, even with the stipulation that u could NEVER sell it would get the Ferrari. I know that i would. Ferrari's are hotter then hell. I wish i could drum up enough money to get it. Someday. GL with the sale man.

Nice car man, I know someone with a red one and 6 speed that might be selling it for the new 699 or whatever it is.
Price seems about right on it.
Car is a blast to drive in, plenty fast but not loud at all (stock) and very comfortable to take on a trip.
Problem with it being Ferrari is that there are people that could afford it but not as many that would want to afford the maintenance costs for them.
Check out the costs for a clutch or head gaskets, factory ones I might add.
Or the faster ones that you can get the carbon brakes for, check out the cost of a brake job on it. Like I said, there are people that can afford them, not as many that want to.
Compare the cost of gaskets for a Z06 compared to a 575M.

Very nice car, BTW. Maranellos are classy.

Looking at your "other ebay items"...I would say the Ferrari auction looks a little out of place next to "bath robes for $19.99".... LOL
Good luck with the sale.
