            1997 Ferrari 355 Spyder six speed in very rare Canna di Fucile

Pininfarina sculpture plus wind-tunnel developed function equal one of the prettiest of modern Ferrari V8's.  And of course what a V8: its 3.5 litre five valve per cylinder, all aluminum even the con-rods and 11:1 compression make for glorious sound and performance.  The 355 Ferrari has a light and nimble feel that seems lacking in the newer Ferrari V8 cars.  That plus its simple lines make the 355 a wonderful drivers car.  This 24k mile Spyder wears a its very rare Canna di Fucile Metallic color extremely well.  Yes Ferrari's look good in red, but some models can be extraordinary and elegant in other shades and this is certainly one!  
 
SF Bay Area from new, this 355 Spyder presents itself well; paint appears all original thus there are a few nose chips and minor blemishes, sides of the car are very nice as is hood and deck lid and rear.  The interior is lovely and seats are excellent but some evidence of dash leather shrinkage. Top is very good and toneau excellent.  Wheels very good with some very slight scrapes, tires are mid 4/32 wear.  Engine and bay is very tidy and clean and shows no evidence of any major leaking.  Partial manual set, full tool kit are with the car.  Thankfully, most of the switches and bezels have been changed out to remove the all too common "sticky."  The Ferrari drives very well, clutch take up is positive and immediate, steering tight and responsive, engine is smooth and revs wonderfully!  Brakes have slight squeak when cold but when warm are immediate.  Top actuates, as do al switches properly.  Major service is due but exhaust manifold and catalytic updates have already been done.  This is a lovely high level driver Ferrari that would take little to achieve a show level, plus its simply elegant in its attire.

Fiat Chrysler begins Magneti Marelli spinoff

Thu, Jul 19 2018

MILAN — Fiat Chrysler has kicked off its planned spinoff of parts maker Magneti Marelli, which will be registered in the Netherlands and listed on the Milan stock exchange, a document outlining initial plans and seen by Reuters showed. The spinoff is part of a plan by FCA Chief Executive Sergio Marchionne to "purify" the Italian-American carmaker's portfolio and to unlock value at Magneti Marelli similar to his earlier spinoff of Ferrari. Analysts say Magneti Marelli could be worth between 3.6 billion and 5 billion euros ($4.2 billion to $5.8 billion). It sits within FCA's components unit alongside robotics specialist Comau and castings firm Teksid. FCA has created a separate entity called MM Srl, the document showed, into which it will fold Magneti Marelli's electronics and electro-mechanical operations related to racing motorbikes and racing cars, as well as 14 other holdings in various companies around the world, including Germany, Slovakia, Mexico and South Africa. MM will be incorporated into a Dutch holding company via a cross-border merger, it added. FCA declined to comment. The move follows a similar procedure adopted by FCA for the spinoff and listing of Ferrari as well as of trucks and tractor maker CNH Industrial, both registered in the Netherlands and listed in Milan. The Dutch holding company would allow Marchionne, known for his success in extracting shareholder value through this strategy, to introduce a loyalty share scheme to reward long-term investors through multiple voting rights, as was the case with CNH and Ferrari. That would tighten the grip of FCA's controlling shareholder Exor, the Agnelli family's investment holding company, on the parts maker. Magneti Marelli, which employs around 43,000 people and operates in 19 countries, is a diversified components supplier specialized in lighting, powertrain and electronics. The Magneti Marelli separation is expected to be completed by the end of this year or early 2019, FCA has said. FCA's advisers initially looked at a possible initial public offering for the business to raise cash to cut FCA's debt, but the Agnelli family — FCA's main shareholder — was put off by low industry valuations and did not want its stake in Magneti Marelli to be diluted, three sources close to the matter told Reuters in March. Magneti Marelli has often been touted as a takeover target, and FCA has fielded interest from various rivals and private equity firms over the years.

Ferrari F12 TdF debuts at Finali Mondiali event at Mugello

Mon, Nov 9 2015

It's been almost a month since Ferrari revealed the new F12 TdF. But outside of a select cadre of customers, nobody has gotten to see it until this weekend at the Mugello circuit in Italy. The TdF is the more extreme version of the F12 Berlinetta – similar to how the 599 GTO was an upgraded 599 GTB Fiorano, or the 458 Speciale an upgraded 458 Italia. It benefits from a more potent version of the Berlinetta's 6.3-liter V12 producing 769 horsepower and 520 pound-feet of torque. It also features a rear-wheel steering system, 87 percent more downforce, and 240 pounds less weight to motivate. The result is a 0-62 time of 2.9 seconds, a top speed of over 211 miles per hour, and a Fiorano lap time of 1:21. A trio of TdFs hit the track this weekend at Mugello – one of several circuits owned by Ferrari in Italy – located in the Tuscan countryside and frequent venue for motorcycle and DTM races. It also played host this weekend to the Finali Mondiali – the company's year-end racing spectacle where the winners of the various Ferrari Challenge series duke it out for top honors, where private owners (as part of the Corse Clienti program) are invited to drive their racing and XX track machinery, and where Ferrari often unveils something new. In addition to the F12 TdF's debut, this year saw the presentation of the 488 GTE and GT3 racers as well. Both Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen were on hand to show off what the TdF could do in front of the cheering crowds. With only 799 examples to be built (and all of them rumored to have already been sold), this may present the closest opportunity you'll get to see the new F12 TdF up close.
