1994 Ferrari 348 Tb Challenge No. 14 Of 32 Built **no Reserve Auction** on 2040-cars
Lexington, Missouri, United States
I am regrettably listing my 1994 Challenge car. It is #14 of 32 built
and one of the few that was never converted or raced. The 348C's and a handful of the 355C's are the only ones that were issued titles for road use. My plan was to strip the car down to race trim and use it for both road and track. The Challenge cars are the rare few that you can modify and actually have the value increase. Ferrari built 32 348C's in 1994,
100 Series Speciale cars in 1993 and 15 additional Series Speciale cars in 1994. These are the only limited production 348's for the US market. The Challenge kit (which consisted of mostly now out-of-date safety equipment) would have been installed by the dealer in most Challenge cars. The car currently has
not had any of the Challenge package installed, but came with the
racing pedals, roll cage mounts, different steering wheel and a few other
Challenge items from the factory. This 348 is eligible to run in the
Challenge Club Racing Championship/CCR Forza Tifosi Challenge.
She is Rosso Corsa on tan and has 64,400 miles with a major service (engine out) completed on June 25, 2013 at 62,500 miles. The service included new Hill tensioners, new injectors, plugs, belts, water pump, only two valves needed a re-shim, fluids, a couple bearings in idlers/tensioners, gaskets, air cleaner and new tires. The A/C components are intact. However, I planned on removing them and did not recharge the system at the time of service. The car drove great from its previous home of Los Angeles to it's current home in Kansas City immediately following the service. The seats are not in the greatest condition, but the rest of the interior is nice. As you can see, the exterior looks great, but is not flawless. There are a couple knicks and light scratches. I also have a new chrome Cavallino on the way for the rear grill. She is definitely the right color and still makes me smile every time I tell her goodnight. 348's are great and weather permitting we drive them everyday. The only reason I am selling this one is to cover a 430 Challenge project I am purchasing. We also own another 348 SS/Challenge or I would not even think of turning loose of this one. So take this opportunity to add one of the few collectible 348's to your stable. Remember.. they only built 32 of these. I can offer enclosed delivery to the east coast this month for a small fee. I can also provide indoor storage if needed, but the car will need to be paid for in full within 7 days of auction close. Please feel free to call with any questions. 480-334-8251 (12pm to 8pm cst) Thank you. |

Ferrari 488 Spider configurator is just in time for summer
Mon, Apr 11 2016The weather is just starting to show signs of being nice enough for open-top driving, which makes it a perfect time to configure a Ferrari 488 Spider. The configurator lets you select every aspect of your future Ferrari, and that means this Prancing Horse will fully let you express your own personality. In this case, you can spec out the 488 Spider as a track monster with a plethora of carbon fiber parts, or if you want more of a grand tourer, there are options like electric seats and the choice to alter practically every part's color. Unfortunately, none of the selections come with a price, so there's no way to know how much the gold metallic paint for the brake calipers adds to the bottom line. It's fun to dream, though. Mechanically, the 488 Spider is identical to its coupe sibling. The engine is a 3.9-liter twin-turbo V8 with 661 horsepower and 560 pound-feet of torque. A seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox sends that muscle to the rear wheels. The droptop can reach 62 miles per hour in 3.2 seconds, just a few tenths off the coupe, and the Spider's top speed is 203 miles per hour. As for the final number for those who love tracking every bit of performance with a stopwatch: the roof hides away in a scant 14 seconds. Related Video:
Ferrari GTC4 Lusso rights the FF's wrongs
Wed, Mar 2 2016Enamored as we may be with the idea, there's a good reason that more automakers aren't making shooting brakes these days. A three-door wagon (or elongated hatchback) is tricky to get right, stylistically speaking. The Ferrari FF might have come closer than most, but even the most dedicated of tifosi would have to admit it was a little awkward. The new GTC4 Lusso goes a long way towards setting that right. Sixteen feet long, to be exact. Unveiled here at the Geneva Motor Show, the GTC4 Lusso is not only better looking than its predecessor, but is more powerful and technologically advanced as well. Though Maranello is working on supplementing its V12s with hybrid assists and its V8s with turbos, the new Lusso still packs an old school atmospheric twelve. 6.3 liters now produce 680 horsepower and 514 pound-feet of torque (up from 651 hp and 504 lb-ft). The muscle is channeled to all four wheels, helping it reach 62 miles per hour in just 3.4 seconds and top out at 208 mph with privileged disregard for the conditions. There may be some compelling competition vying for the kind of money Ferrari will charge for the new Lusso, considering that the previous FF commanded a princely $300k. But nothing else (since the Jenson Interceptor) can offer the same combination of space and pace – and dare we say, grace. Beauty being in the eye of the beholder and all, choosing to take home a new GTC4 Lusso will still be a matter of personal taste – but that's a choice we wouldn't mind having to make.

The Ferrari GTC4Lusso debuts at the Geneva Show: class-leading performance, versatility in all driving conditions, sublime elegance. Geneva, 1 March 2016 – The new Ferrari GTC4Lusso is Maranello's latest interpretation of the four-seater concept, which combines extraordinary performance in all driving conditions with sporty elegance and luxurious comfort for both driver and passengers alike. The GTC4Lusso's name references several illustrious predecessors, not least the 330 GTC or its 2+2 sister model, the 330 GT, as well as the 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso, which married extreme performance with stylish design and sophisticated materials and craftsmanship.
Meet the man that discovered and restored the oldest existing Porsche
Tue, 11 Mar 2014Luciano Rupolo is an absolutely fascinating gentleman. He was born in France but spent nearly his entire life in Italy as an auto mechanic running his own shop. His grandfather and father instilled a love of sports cars in him that he carried on by historic racing in Italy for decades. He saw his life-long automotive passion repaid when he found and restored the car that might have been the first Porsche registered for the road.
You can spot in his garage a split-window Corvette, Ferrari 250 GTE and other exotics, but Rupolo's most interesting automotive story concerns his Iso Grifo Competizione (pictured above). The sports coupe was found in the Canary Islands as little more than a shell, but Rupolo got help from a prestigious source for its restoration. The result is a motoring masterpiece.
Rupolo is a fantastic storyteller with a captivating, tale to tell. Settle in, scroll down and watch the bittersweet documentary about his life with one of the first Porsches.
