This Velo Rossa kit car was built on a 1978 Nissan 280Z that was completely refurbished in 1999 prior to creating the look of a 1963 Ferrari Spyder, and I have owned it ever since. The movie Farris Bueller's Day Off showed a 1961 version of this car, but this one is more Lotus-styled. Only 42 actual Ferrari's of this type were built and the going rate for a real one is around $10M. This is a great cruising car that makes people want to complement you or ask about its history on every drive. Teenagers always want to race with you. In 1999 an ATK-Japan rebuilt stock 280Z engine was professionally installed (now with 12K additional miles on it) and numerous other updates since then (clutch, brakes, tires, master cylinder, injectors, hoses, belts, certain gauges). It has the stock 5 speed transmission, AC & removable hard top. All finishing body work was done professionally and completed with quality Ferrari Rosa red PPG paint with clearcoat; still looks fantastic!  Originally and currently a Florida-titled Nissan 280Z, always well maintained, garaged, and only adult driven for cruising and showing. There are plenty of finer details left to make it your own and make perfect, but she looks and drives beautifully. Spent nearly $40K in building and maintaining it for 14 years, and now it's time to pass the torch -- at half price! Have all major receipts and pics of build history, maintenance manual, owner's manual, and Ferrari history book.

2015 Maserati GranTurismo to show new styling language for brand

Tue, 25 Jun 2013

Despite the fact that Maserati has yet to officially mention the next generation of its grand touring lineup, it seems like we know plenty of details about the upcoming range of Maserati coupes and convertibles. First we heard that the GranTurismo line would be growing to include three models, then we heard that new, smaller two-seater (possibly named Gran Sport) could be here by 2016 and, most recently, reports indicated that the GranTurismo's successor will feature more compact dimensions to better take on the Porsche 911.
Now Edmunds is reporting that the 2015 GranTurismo will mark a major evolution in the design language for the Italian automaker, while the Levante SUV will get the current styling cues found on the 2014 Quattroporte and 2014 Ghibli. The article also says that Maserati is planning to offer its models with a wider range of available colors and that it will introduce new limited-edition models as well all in hopes of selling 50,000 units globally by 2015.

Jay Kay's 1955 Maserati A6G/54 on the docket for Pebble Beach

Sat, 26 May 2012

Gooding & Company has revealed the highlights of its consignments for its Pebble Beach auction during the action-packed Monterey weekend. At the top of the list is the classic 1955 Maserati A6G/54 Frua Berlinetta currently owned by Jamiroquai frontman Jay Kay. This Maserati, the show car from the 1955 Paris Auto Salon, features Frau coachwork, won Best in Show at the Salon Privé, and is expected to fetch between $1.5 and 2 million.
No less prestigious is the 1938 Bugatti Type 57C Stelvio convertible that belonged to Prince Louis Napoleon of France, grandson of Emperor Napoleon I and noted Bugatti collector of the time. Supercharged from the factory, the stunning two-tone droptop is projected to sell for $1.3 to 1.6 million.
Finally, an original 1966 Shelby 427 Cobra is on the docket, with pre-sale estimates at $750,000 - $950,000. See below for the full press release and watch this space as the classic car world gears up for Pebble Beach.

Latin music star Ren? P?rez destroys own Maserati to send kids a message

Thu, 06 Mar 2014

Can destroying a car be art? That question comes a bit too late for the Maserati Quattroporte seen above. The act depicted is from the music video for Adentro by Puerto Rican hip-hop act Calle 13 new single.
While the video is not yet online, the making-of featurette is available below and shows the luxury sedan getting beat with a baseball bat (and more) by the group's frontman René Pérez. According to Latin Gossip, Pérez wants to send his fans a message not to place too high a value in material objects. The Maserati represents a time in his life of too much excess, it seems...
The guy might have an argument, but it still seems pretty wasteful to destroy a perfectly good Italian sports sedan. We will be curious to see how far the destruction goes, but you can get a peak at it in the video below.
