1990 Ferrari 348 Ts Base Coupe 2-door 3.4l on 2040-cars
Rockwell, North Carolina, United States
|
Up for auction is my 1990 Ferrari 348ts. It is Rosso Red with a tan interior with 37,150 miles. It is all stock with the original 3.4 liter V8 motor and 5 speed transmission. I bought the car about nine months ago and really love the car as it is great fun to drive. However, a couple months ago I developed some back issues which are worsened when I drive a stick shift car. After many, many years of owning manual transmission sports cars, I may finally be old enough to look for an automatic transmission in my next sports car.
This car has had no previous accident damage and has been well cared for by the previous owners. I bought it from Sport Auto in Summerfield, NC who had the car on consignment from the owner they had previously sold the car to. I have numerous service records with most of the service completed at Sport Auto by their certified Ferrari tech named Tom Jones. So the dealership knew the car very well and it has been everything they said it would be. When I purchased the car, I knew it needed to have the cam belt service which requires removing the motor. Sport Auto had done the previous cam belt service 6,000 miles ago but it had been six years. The belt is supposed to last for 30,000 miles but the time factor here was the reason the belt needed to be replaced. The upgraded Hill Engineering idler and tensioner pulley's had been installed at this service. I have a lift in my garage and do my own service along with the help of my engineer son. Last November we pulled the motor and installed a new cam belt. Since the cam belt also runs the water pump, it was replaced as well. During the inspection of the engine, I discovered that the A/C compressor was leaking and a new one was installed. The A/C system was also converted to 134A at that time and does a great job of cooling the interior even during some recent 90 degree plus days. We also installed a new clutch while the motor was out. While the motor was out I also cleaned up the motor, the engine bay and both front and rear suspensions. All of this work was documented on the Ferrari Chat website in the following thread: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/348-355-sponsored-bradan/429582-ferrari-348-engine-out-service.html The car has run flawlessly since we put the motor back in the car around the first of the year. I have put over 3,000 miles driving it to various car shows and on Sunday afternoon pleasure rides with my wife. It still has the original single stage paint except for the lift out roof. At some point this piece was painted body color using base/clear paint. The paint is very good to excellent with minimal stone chips on the nose. I would rate the interior at that same level with some wear on the driver's seat that is consistent with the age of the car and the mileage. The wheels are in great shape and there is lots of tread left on the tires. The transmission shifts well with no synchro issues. The brake pads have plenty of material, the car stops evenly with no pulling and new synthetic brake fluid was used after the motor was re-installed. Everything works on the car as it should. With the new clutch and recent belt service, this is a Ferrari 348 that can be driven for a number of years before it will require service. The car has a clear title with no liens and is sold as is with no warranty. For more information, please call 704-657-8320. I have the car listed locally and reserve the right to stop the auction if the car sells locally.

Ferrari 458 Speciale Spider will make Paris debut
Wed, 17 Sep 2014The news out of Ferrari is coming nearly as fast as its wonderful sports cars, as of late, with CEO Luca di Montezemolo stepping down and a special model for America upcoming. Now, it's looking increasingly likely that the 458 Speciale Spider is making its world debut at the 2014 Paris Motor Show in early October, confirming earlier rumors.
Di Montezemolo had already confirmed that the Prancing Horse would unveil a new car in Paris, but exactly which model it would be had been a mystery. However, an unnamed Ferrari insider has recently confirmed to 4WheelNews that it would be the droptop Speciale.
As the name suggests, the special model takes the sonorous 4.5-liter V8 engine from the 458 Speciale with 597 horsepower and 398 pound-feet of torque and drops it into the convertible hardtop from the Spider. According to the source, the special Ferrari is also getting new wheels, stripes and seats, but the folding top might mean losing the coupe's transparent engine cover.
Motor Trend hits Laguna Seca with Ferrari F12, Chevy Corvette, Porsche 911
Thu, 26 Sep 2013According to the crew at Motor Trend, we should think of the video below "as an addendum to Best Driver's Car," a test the magazine put together that elevated the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S above all others in the category of driving joy. It seems the brand-new 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray wasn't able to take part in the magazine's official test, and neither was the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta.
And so Motor Trend did the only logical thing: It procured both the 'Vette and Prancing Horse as soon as it could, and put them both on track with the Driver's Car-winning 911. Of course, these cars don't actually compete against each other - the Ferrari offers up 731 horsepower and wears an asking price of $434,144 as tested, which means you could buy four loaded Corvettes for the price of one F12, and still have money left for a garage to store them in - but that's not the point of this particular test.
The point of this test isn't to listen to the beautiful sounds coming from the Porsche's flat-six-cylinder, the Corvette's pushrod V8 or the Ferrari's luscious V12, either, but the video below is worth watching for those three reasons alone. You know what to do.
Ferrari officially teases successor to Enzo throne
Fri, 14 Dec 2012You're looking at our best view yet of the upcoming successor to the Ferrari Enzo. Rumors kicking around the web insist the new reigning monarch of the Italian kingdom will carry the "F150" name when it bows, otherwise known as the Special Limited Series. Word has it Ferrari has focused all of its experience in Formula One to create the new model. According to the manufacturer's official online magazine, the new ultracar will boast a carbon fiber monocoque chassis built in "an almost handmade style" using four types of the composite. We aren't sure exactly what that means, but the design should keep weight to a minimum.
Power should come courtesy of an 800 horsepower V12 engine married to a HY-KERS system good for an additional 100 hp. Early estimates say the creation will tip the scales at under 3,000 pounds, which means the vehicle will be a performance marvel. Sounds like a party.
