Ferrari- difference between advertised and dealt price

[JohnG123]

I have purchased 3 Ferraris from Graypaul Solihull over the years and always found them to open to a reasonable negotiation.
If you have no part exchange I think a fair offer would be £90k.
Just my humble opinion.

In my experience if you don’t ask you don’t get worst they can do is say no.

Thanks, if I suggest finance over cash wonder if that will give them more wiggle room too.

I’ve never understood this reluctance to negotiate with Ferrari dealers that some people have. They may be “upmarket” motor dealers but motor dealers is what they are. Haggle!

I’ve found they are usually open to a cpl of grand to get the deal done.

dealers can be funny, once I walked out because they wouldn't throw in a set of carpet mats on a £40k car (in 2008), they came chasing after me after waiting about 20 seconds!

For sure it will .... but of course it will ultimately end up costing you more.

Actually, my last couple of purchases have shown this is no longer the case… offered the same deal regardless of how I paid. Said the incentives for selling Ferrari finance were no longer in place. The leverage of having a nice trade in which would make them more profit on resale seemed more important and helped me get the car over another party (with no trade in).

Buy in winter. Easier to get a deal.

Or just wait another couple of years and they will be even cheaper.

On my F430, list was £99,999 from Ferrari Nottingham.

I offered £90k and they politely declined. Did the deal at £99,000.

On the 599 I got £2.5k off and a service and a few bits sorted.

I am a terrible negotiator when I really want something but my view/justification is that life is short…so I don’t really give a toss about a few grand on a car at this sort of price point if you really want it.

Well that’s just silly, you should wait a few months and deprive yourself of the enjoyment and save a few pounds!

Last few cars I’ve bought have been told the same, finance makes no difference. Actually easier to not do finance.
