- Flood-damaged Ferrari Purosangue for sale on Instagram.
- Extensive repairs likely needed, could cost over $100,000.

Dubai was hit by huge floods in April and given the dizzying array of exotics that call the city home, it is no surprise that many were damaged in the freak weather event. This Ferrari Purosangue is one of them and it’s now looking for someone to save it.
This Purosangue has been listed for sale on Instagram and is in a very sorry state. Repairing it may be possible, but it will probably be extraordinarily costly and isn’t a project that an untrained individual should attempt.

The eye-catching Ferrari appears to be finished in Nero Purosangue, which, under some lights, looks like a deep shade of black, and from other angles, it has a lovely dark purple hue. Contrasting the dark purple are several bright yellow accents.
Vehicles damaged by floods in the U.S. are typically listed with a line that shows how high the water went. This Purosangue doesn’t seem to have such a water line, meaning it’s difficult to know how deep the water was.
The cabin apparently is bathed in a thick layer of dirt, dust, and soot, likely because it has been stored outside, in the desert, and with the windows cracked open. It appears some of the interior trim pieces have been removed, although it’s unclear why.
Buying a flood-damaged vehicle like this without first inspecting it is extremely risky as it’s often impossible to tell what needs to be repaired without disassembling the car. As a result, only those willing to spend over six figures fixing this Purosangue should even consider it. While risky, it could pay off, particularly if the car hasn’t suffered any mechanical damage.
