Tony’s Take: 
The English translation of “Barchetta” is “break out another hundred thousand.” From January 2022 until April 2022, the Ferrari 550 Barchetta’s sale price skyrocketed, from $400k to $500k. And why not? The pre-Monza 550 Barchettta is the must-have Ferrari roadster. Maranello made just 488 worldwide. That’s less than other specialty Ferraris like the 512M (501) and the 575 Superamerica (559).
Both of those cars bring north of $700k. Carbon bucket seats, certified Classiche and 800 miles? It’s only a matter of time before this is a million dollar car. Meanwhile, I bet this Barchetta does at least $650k on BAT. I’d happily pay north of $750k. Downside: the Red/Tan color combo is a bit vanilla in Ferrari world. (Transaction from previous sales.)
