Price history

Today $360,000 · modelled median at five years $346,352
Solid line: the value this library has carriedDashed from 2026: modelled · even money $288,935 to $408,554
The green band is the even-money range and the one to plan on: half of outcomes land inside it. The pale band behind it bounds eight in ten ($237,194 to $464,607). The path is this model's own: it starts along the momentum of its recorded history and bends toward its projected median as the horizon lengthens, so no two cars share a future curve.

The verdict

A defensible case with reservations. Scores 59/100, ranking 62 of 104 in the over $100k band. Demand durability is the strongest input, liquidity the weakest.
Running it costs about $18,050 a year (5.0% of value), which is what the economics score measures. All in, including the projected value change, it is $25,260 a year.
The model's five year median is $346,352, a -3.8% move, with the tenth percentile at $237,194.

At least one recorded transaction plus a source. Direction is sound, the exact level less so.
Scored against every recent Australian sale this library holds, half its values land within 11.2 per cent of the price paid and the rest miss by more, in either direction. Projections are therefore damped toward flat in proportion to how little is known, and the plausible band is never narrower than the error the model is known to make.

1 completed Australian sale of 3 rows. Rows marked asking, no sale, or context are shown for honesty but do not count toward the evidence grade: an ask is not a transaction, a pass-in is a refusal, and a provenance or overseas result does not price the ordinary local car. The badge on every row is computed by the same rule as the grade, so the two cannot drift apart.

No forecast is used to compute the hurdle. It is the purchase, the duty, any premium and 5 years of running cost, grossed up for the cost of selling and spread back over the hold. The projection it is measured against is the weakest number in this product and is drawn that way in the chart above. Transport, finance and any restoration spend sit outside it.

The case for and against

The case for

The last naturally aspirated V8 Ferrari has been flat for a decade, which for a Ferrari is the base camp before the climb.

The case against

Flat is the operative word. Capital parked here earned nothing nominal for ten years while costing $18,000 a year to hold. The Australian record is one transaction deep, so the value is a single result adjusted for condition rather than a measured market, even though the international market for it is the healthiest of any car in this library.

One Australian transaction against two dealer asks, and the asks were 11 to 25 per cent high

$330,000 at Marrickville NSW on 31 August 2025: an AUSTRALIAN-MARKET car first registered April 2011, third owner, 46,112 kilometres, Bianco Avus over Nero, carbon-ceramics, seven dated services from 12,142 kilometres in 2013. Against that this record was carrying $400,000, set from asks of $449,990 and $399,990 on cars at around 23,000 kilometres.

The arithmetic

At 46,112 kilometres against the 25,000 expected here, the odometer adjustment is minus 3.8 per cent, so the sale normalises to about $343,000. The car had damage under both bumpers, wear on the driver's bolster, and AN ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED because of its aftermarket exhaust - a fault a buyer prices even when the cause is benign. Allowing 5 per cent to put those right gives about $360,000 for a clean car, and that is the value.

An ask is a seller's opening position

This record read two of them as a price and sat 11 per cent above the only transaction anyone has. That is the whole correction.
