1997 FERRARI 456 GTA

SOLD

 

If you want a 2+2, occasional 4 person exotic car with an automatic transmission your choices have always been some what limited. This is the stomping ground for these 456 GT Ferraris. Top speed is in the region of 185 mph with 0 to 60 around 5.0 seconds and horsepower is almost 450 so performance is very adequate, in fact they got around Ferraris Fiorano test track several seconds faster than the 512 Testa Rosa could and yet are still one of the great Grand Touring cars. Saying that they also become incredible value for money as a pre-owned Exotic as they plummet in value from new ($230,000.00 approx) and then hit a value at which your exposure becomes very minimal, especially when compared to what they have already dropped, it’s impossible to loose what they have already depreciated. This depreciation allows many people that otherwise could not own one the opportunity to do so. Designed by Pinninfarina the cars utilized alluminium panels that were chemically bonded to the steel chassis. As are most Pinninfarina designed cars they are simply beautiful with smooth and sensuous lines devoid of big wings whilst creating what will and is already happening a very timeless and elegant design. These were introduced in September 1992 but did not come to the United States until late 1994. In 1996 the automatic was made available with final 456 production ending in 1998.This example is a very nice car with a mileage of only 17,827. At 14,456 miles a 15k service was performed with the equivalent of a 30k service done at that time because of the vehicles age. Finished in Titanium with Black Connelly leather interior.
