The Boxer market

005...

006...

Thats really a nice BB, I talked with the dealer selling it and I believe this one they had repainted at a cost of around $20,000, he mentioned many problems turning up when having it done but thats typical with painting Boxers I know as I have had many problems doing my car, it was done in November and took 3 months and I am taking it in tomorrow for some last touch ups needed in a few spots, no wonder why shops think they are a pain. Quite a bit of filler on these cars also in spots, you cant tell as on the 3xx series cars you will see more waves in the panels, the Boxers they must have spent more time finishing the filler and panels straight.

He also mentioned he got the car from a collector for around $100k and finished up a few mechanical items and the paint.

Which way do you think the Boxer market is headed in 2006 ? Of the 3 Boxers, which is likely to move north 1st, the 365 BB or 512 BBi ?

IMO the 365BB wioll be leading Boxer prices upwards again. It started with the Hussein 365 that sold for $155k, this blue 365 has sold twice in the past year to 2 different owners for $125k.

There was an article in the English mag "Classic Cars" recently which tipped 365bb's as the next Ferrari to start climbing. Let's hope so as my three young daughters education depends on it(or so I keep telling my other half!)

Do you know which issue of Classic Cars the article was in ?

November 2005 page 118

Ugggggh ! Thats the only issue of Classic Cars I did not get last year !

I tried scanning it. Hope it turns out!
