Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome spoke Borrani wire wheels, Pirelli P5 tires, Marchal fog lights in grille, covered headlights. Good paint and chrome. Tired, lightly soiled interior that goes a little beyond patina. Good, flush panel fits, even gaps. Clean underbody and chassis. Class winner at Pebble Beach in 1990. Ferrari Classiche certified.

Market commentary

Sold by RM in Arizona in 2000 for $1,265,000, then offered at Maranello in 2009 where it was a no sale at $5,415,651. Looks much the same today as it did then, so this is the new normal in SWB California Spider values, a value confirmed by other California Spider sales during Monterey week. The value trajectory, however, is tapering off. Sold 7 24 2014 through Peter Wallman to Lawrence Graff in CH.
