1985 Ferrari 308 Gtsi Qv on 2040-cars
Portland, Oregon, United States
This car handles like a dream. The steering is so direct, responsive and predictable that the driver almost feels
as if his nerve endings are connected to the road via the tires. It corners with almost no roll and delightful
mid-engine handling. At normal road speeds it's very neutral, at the limit there's a mild understeer, and if you
back off the throttle when cornering hard, the 308 tightens its line slightly. This combination results in a safe
and predictable car for novice and experienced drivers alike.
This 308 GTSI QV boasts Ferrari's iconic color of Ferrari Racing Red and features Connolly tan interior. This car
comes loaded with air conditioning, tinted glass, with heated rear window, quartz clock, four wheel ventilated
brakes, limited slip differential, Bosch K-Jetronic Fuel Injection with Lambada Control, 5-Speed Gearbox with oil
cooler and pump. It also boasts electric power windows, left and right side view mirrors, door locks, a retractable
electric antenna and a Blaupunkt car stereo. Also, this particular car comes with two tops (a red top and a black
top) and two sets of wheels; original factory wheels and an after market set. It has all the original tools and
even the original window sticker. Owner's operating manual and Warranty and Service Book are included.

CA man accused of stealing same Ferrari twice
Thu, 11 Sep 2014Cars get stolen all the time. It's an unfortunate reality, but a reality nonetheless. It's just unusual when the same guy steals the same car twice, but that's what apparently occurred recently in Fontana, CA.
That's where one Earnie Hooks was arrested late last month driving a black Ferrari 458 Spider. According to police, Hooks was intoxicated when he arrived at a roadside checkpoint, and when they ran the plates, they found the car was reported as stolen.
Hooks managed to evade police (not too hard to imagine given the car he was driving) and later abandoned the car, which was taken to the impound. Around 3 am the next morning, though, someone broke into the impound and stole the car... again. Hooks was found five days later in Studio City, still driving the stolen Ferrari. He was arrested and somehow still had the gall to plead not guilty to the charges of car theft and resisting arrest.
1962 Ferrari 250 GTO hits record $38 million sale at Bonhams' Monterey auction
Fri, 15 Aug 2014This weekend's Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegrance brings together some of the rarest and most expensive automobiles in the world onto a tiny peninsula in California jutting out into the Pacific Ocean. But this year, there has been one vehicle on everyone's lips - a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO. Bonhams put up this incredibly rare Prancing Horse at no reserve for its auction at the Quail Lodge, meaning it could have sold for just a dollar. It didn't though, this ex-Jo Schlesser owned Ferrari sold for a staggering $38.115 million. That makes it the most expensive car ever sold at auction, beating out Bonhams' sale of a Mercedes W196R last year for $29.65 million.
Ferrari only built 39 of these racers, and they have been million-dollar cars for years. One reportedly sold privately for $52 million last year, and one built for Stirling Moss went for $35 million privately in 2012.
While the spectacle of seeing a 250 GTO drive across the auction block with no reserve and then set a record price was certainly amazing, it wasn't the only rare Ferrari up for sale during the evening. Bonhams also handpicked some of the most collectible Ferraris in the world and brought them to the stage. The ten cars included a 1962 250 GT Short-Wheelbase Speciale Aerodinamica that went for $6.875 million, a 1953 250 Mille Miglia Berlinetta driven to racing victory by Phil Hill for $7.26 million and even a 1978 312 T3 Formula One car for $2.31 million. All told, the group of them sold for $65.945 million.
Ferrari 458 Speciale is our Frankfurt fantasy [w/video]
Tue, 10 Sep 2013This is the Ferrari 458 Speciale, and while its name might underwhelm, its performance and lineage more than make up for it. The successor to the proud line of hot, higher-performance, mid-engined Ferraris like the 360 Challenge Stradale and 430 Scuderia, the 458 Speciale is blessed with a 596-horsepower, 4.5-liter V8 and the ability to skip to 62 miles per hour in three seconds. It also comes with a not-so-subtle racing stripe, which we like.
Thanks to a scarcely believable curb weight of 2,844 pounds, special Michelin Pilot Sport cup 2 tires, and a few tweaks to the electronic diff, the Speciale is quite a dancer as well. Naturally, Ferrari is showing off the newest member of the scuderia at Frankfurt, and we made it a priority to see it in person. We've got a full gallery of live images above, a video and stock photography from Ferrari down below, and our original coverage of the car, from August, right here.
