Ferrari F355 Challenge Twin-turbo Race Car on 2040-cars
Elizabeth, New Jersey, United States
This is a factory-built 1997 F355 Challenge car with 15,000 miles. It was run in the Challenge series for 2 years until being replaced by the 360 Challenge. I bought this car in 2006 from the previous owner (and good friend) after selling my own 360 Challenge whose handling I did not like. I then spent over $30,000 on conversion to a twin turbo engine. The conversion was performed by a Ferrari factory authorized facility in Elizabeth, N.J. 2 new Garrett turbos, 2 custom made intercoolers,custom piping and wiring all handmade, uprated injectors, fuel pumps and a remapped ecu give this car 500 RWHP in it's current setup. Up to 600 RWHP easily achievable, but I wanted it to remain highly reliable and run on pump gas. Full roll cage, fire extinguishing system and communications wiring. Internal and external ignition shutoff. The 355 is a much more forgiving car to drive very fast than the 360 or 430, and with the extra horsepower it is faster than both. I have used this car for trackdays only since it's completion, and it has been in storage at the Ferrari faciliy since 2009. Due to back injuries I sustained in 2008 I can no longer race cars, so this beauty is for sale. Body is clean with no dents, never been in an accident to my (and the previous owner's) knowledge. Paint is excellent and interior is clean. No rust anywhere. Large file of service records (this car was fanatically maintained). Very rare, very fast, very easy to drive. Replacing this car would cost well in excess of $100,000 today. Please do not bid if you have zero feedback or more than 5% negative feedback. Please no tire-kickers or dreamers. Car is not street legal so it can not be taken for test drives. Viewing and PPI may be done by appointment at Classic Coach Ferrari in Elizabeth, NJ. Contact me to arrange an appointment. Vehicle is sold on a Bill of Sale. This car is not road-legal so it has no title in NY. |

Ferrari 458 Speciale buyers told to spec options to secure orders
Tue, Nov 25 2014Want to get your hands on a Ferrari 458 Speciale? You're in good company, because demand for what could be the last naturally aspirated V8 supercar from Maranello is apparently soaring. As a result, some buyers who've already placed their orders are reportedly being "advised" to add on extra options or risk losing their place on the waiting list to someone who will. The news comes from UK-based Magnitude Finance, whose director Tim Marlow said, "One client ordered the car many months ago but he was subsequently advised to increase the options he selected to guarantee delivery simply because others are prepared to go pay over the odds to get one new." Another Magnitude client was asked by the dealer "on five occasions to say others wanted to buy it if he changed his mind." Reached for comment, Ferrari spokesperson Krista Florin told Autoblog: "As with any Ferrari, customization is offered as a service to make each car unique. However, there are no requirements in order to secure an order." The options list on the 458 Speciale can add up fast. Active headlights add over $2,500 to the price, fitted luggage nearly $11k, leather interior and front lift system a solid $6k each and those NART stripes another $11k. Ordering items like the engine cover ($7.8k), rear diffuser ($9.6k) and outer sill cover ($10k) in carbon fiber can add to the $288k base price as quick as the Speciale can gather pace. That's how our recent tester ended up topping $336k – and that's if we could actually get one. Part of the demand is surely coming from moneyed enthusiasts keen to take possession of one of the finest mid-engined supercars Ferrari has ever made, but the demand and values are surely being driven up as well by speculators. "Everyone we speak to sees this as the next appreciating model over the long-term like the 360 Challenge Stradale and 430 Scuderia 16M before it," added Marlow, "so demand is really high." We can only imagine that demand has been even higher for the convertible version, as Ferrari will only make 499 examples of the 458 Speciale A, putting the roadster in an even more rarified class. Ferrari 458 Speciale demand (Leeds: UK. November 2014). Customers are going to extraordinary lengths to buy the Ferrari 458 Speciale, luxury car finance specialist, Magnitude Finance, reveals. Earmarked as a potential collector's item, some prospective buyers have been told a GBP20,000 deposit would only put them on a list of 'possible clients' but not guarantee an order.
In case you forgot, the Dubai Police supercar fleet is the coolest
Tue, Feb 10 2015Ever wonder why the Dubai Police have a fleet of vehicles worth millions and millions and millions of dollars? Why it has a Bugatti Veyron and a Bentley Continental and a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG with sirens and light bars? Well, here's the reason. This video shows the fleet on display on the Emirate's roads and highways, while also reaching out to the people the police are meant to protect. It's an impressive display of machinery, to be sure. Alongside the Bentley, Bugatti and Mercedes, we spy a Ferrari FF, a Brabus G-Wagen, a BMW M6, a Nissan GT-R, an Audi R8 and a McLaren MP4-12C (although the latest Dubai Police car, the Lexus RC F, is absent). The video even has a very cinematic look and feel to it, which works well with the night scenes and the blues-and-twos of the exotics cruisers.
