Interesting. By the time you eliminate incorrectly listed Spiders, LHD, *wanted*, and race car adverts from the F430 Coupe listings there are only 15 F430 coupes for sale currently on PH.

That's sod all compared to this time last year when there were 40+.

Having mine for 3 years now and not selling it anytime soon so don't look at the prices. However the insurance is coming up for renewal and they said you need to up the value of it so there must be a rise in the market value.

You have an agreed value policy? What percentage increase in value are your insurers suggesting (if you don't mind me asking)?

I've always thought that F430s currently represent great value and for 80-90k you can get yourself a hell of a cracking car! I wouldn't be at surprised to see values creeping up for good examples

I make it just 14 x RHD coupes available now. I don't count adverts without pictures.

To me an 80k 430 makes the 125k 458s look like good value

Wasn't trying to be a wind up but I've been quietly looking at 430 market for a while and suddenly thinking 458 looks tempting. I guess my point being how much higher can they go?
Isn't the 458 forming a ceiling already?

Some 360's are already at F430 prices. For me personally I prefer the look, sound, manual gearbox option, and rawer driving experience of the F430 so wouldn't consider the 458 anyway.

Ok, I gotta ask. You just sold one F430 and are looking for another. What's the story there?
