    Default Looking to buy a 458

    Hey L4P members, New member to this forum Nice to meet you all.

    Well, i am looking to buy a Ferrari 458 in the state, but i am looking to export them to my home country, I would like to know how hard is it to find a dealership that is willing to do export? I understand a lot of other company wont allow export due to a lot of reasons. If any members know anything about the process of ordering one and exporting. I would appreciate all the help

    What country are you from? That also makes a difference...

    My 458 is for sale at Cats Exotics and I know he is very knowledgeable with exporting.

    Just a bit curious why you would want to import one from the U.S.? I realize it costs an arm and a leg over there, but wouldn't it cost more with the import tax?

    as long as you have title in hand , you shouldnt have a prob shipping it i would figure .. But I have relatives in Europe that have sent cars back home and they just rock the Michigan plates with registrations and that way they dont pay the fees and duties but i believe there is a time limit that the car can be left in the country before it has to be transferred not sure how it works in the orient though

    I called around, and decided it's not worth the wait time. So i am looking into the used one, and is it normal for them to resell it for way more than msrp ?

    Honestly, I wouldn't recommend importing a Ferrari from US. You can find WAY better deals in EU - especially in Germany - or UAE/Dubai. Furthermore, cars from US have different specifications compared to EU/Asian cars - e.g. light, radio, sat-nav.
