Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
A few tiny chips on the nose. Good paint and chrome otherwise. Almost spotless engine bay. Lightly worn interior but significantly faded and discolored dash top. Sold new in Los Angeles. Cosmetic restoration in 2002 and got an engine and transaxle rebuild shortly thereafter. The work included high-compression pistons, euro-spec exhaust and different ignition that resulted in 409 hp on the dyno.
Market commentary
While quicker than a factory Daytona, modifications tend to detract from a Ferrari's value and this car's less than stellar presentation didn't do it any favors, either. A no reserve lot, it didn't stand out among the distinguished lots at RM's Amelia Island sale and the hammer fell quickly at a bargain price. Bringing a mediocre car to auction can be a risk, and in this case things did not work out for the seller. They did, however, result in the seller getting a dyno-tested 409hp Daytona that should be an absolute ball to drive. Call it a good value for an enthusiastic driver in a car that looks stock except for the upgraded ignition boxes.
