Depreciation Insight: How Quickly Does the 488 Lose Value?

When it comes to Ferrari 488 depreciation, the numbers can be as thrilling as the machine itself, but they’re often less exciting. While Ferrari’s brand equity is strong, the high operating cost and limited production run contribute to noticeable value erosion. Here’s what you can expect:

• First‑year depreciation: typically loses 15–20% of its value in the first year after purchase.
• Three‑year mark: an additional 10–15% loss is common, depending on mileage and condition.
• Five‑year horizon: an overall decline of 30–35% from the original purchase price, again influenced by style (GTB vs. Spider), model updates, and market demand.

These estimates are derived from industry data collected over the last decade, factoring in the Ferrari 488’s specific power‑train and looks. Notice—many enthusiasts still purchase a 2017 model on the belief that its dual‑charge system (twin‑charging) will keep it attractive to target buyers no matter where it sits on the resale ladder.
