This was my dream car that I spent three years searching for! I wanted a 355 because nothing sounds like a 355 with a Capristo Stage 3 exhaust, which this one has that I put on new last year! As close to an F1 car as you can get. After I warmed her up, you can hear her here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDcNs-b6tCU
Of significant importance to me was to find one that had all records and was perfectly sorted. That is THIS car. The original owner had her from 1998 to 2011. A person in Florida bought the car, put $17k in service to make her right including new headers (Fabspeed), put 300 miles on it and then sold it to me. I've made sure everything was perfected there after. I put track pipes on to replace the cats, a brand new Capristo Stage 3 exhaust ($4k) and Capristo bypass valve so it will never rattle again. I then did about about 50% of the electrical connectors with the Dave Helms Gold SRI Connector Kit which cost around $1500 plus about 20 hours labor as I was tracing down an error code. Turns out that it was just a dead O2 sensor, so I replaced all of them. The car has no codes, no issues. BODY The paintwork was fully paint corrected and is a mirror as you can see in the pics. The top looks like brand new. The Pirelli P Zero tires still have at least 75% of tread on them. The interior is in excellent condition but the seat bolsters show typical wear. Brand new battery put in this year, not due for a major service until 2015. Last Major service was by Ferrari of Tampa on 2/16/2011. Valve guides should never need replaced as it was built in April of 1998 and should have, although I haven't verified, steel sintered guides. I have the full service records and title in hand. Car has FACTORY SHIELDS, NO STICKIES, ALL BOOKS, 3 Keys (including the RED FOB), NEW BRAKE PADS. This is the car you've been looking for if you've always wanted a 6 speed manual black 355. No stories, I haven't had to put a penny into any repairs as the previous owner had all the required work done (steel braided fuel lines, headers, etc.) other than the performance upgrades with the exhaust and the bypass valve. If you want to just get in a 355 and drive it and listen to it and not worry if it's going to break down, this is the ONE. I'm only selling because I bought a 360. Feel free to ask me any questions! |

First Ferrari LaFerrari hits the auction block
Thu, 02 Jan 2014If you haven't laid down your $1.4 million to be one of 499 people to own the new Ferrari LaFerrari by now, then you're already too late. Fortunately, Ferrari's new hybrid supercar has just been listed by German auction site SEMCO Gmbh, meaning that you still have a shot at owning one, but it'll cost you - dearly.
With just 124 miles on the odometer, this particular LaFerrari is being listed at 2.38 million euros - more than $3.2 million USD. But hey, at least that includes the Value Added Tax, eh? If the seller manages to command that asking price, it would be an incredible return on investment every bit as fast as the car itself, which in case your mind needs refreshing, is very fast indeed. Top Speed? Try 217 miles per hour and a 0-60 time of under three seconds.
Raikkonen likely to retire from F1 after 2015 [w/poll]
Mon, 07 Jul 2014Though his irreverent demeanor party-goer image might suggest otherwise, make no mistake about it: at 34 years old (and with 37-year-old Mark Webber out of the race), Kimi Raikkonen is the oldest driver in Formula One. He's three months older than Jenson Button, a good year older than his former wingman Felipe Massa, three years ahead of Adrian Sutil and a good decade beyond the latest crop of up-and-comers on the grid. So it's only natural that we should start wondering how much longer he'll stick around, and now we may have our answer.
Speaking with motorsport journalists at the British Grand Prix this past weekend, the 2007 World Champion and winner of 20 grands prix, Raikkonen indicated that the next season will likely be his last. According to numerous racing news outlets, when asked how long he plans to stay on the grid, the famously terse Finn responded: "Until my contract is finished, and then I will probably stop. That is what I think is going to happen."
Kimi was a relatively unknown entity when Sauber gave him his first drive in F1 back in 2001, upon which he finished in the points on his first race. He moved to McLaren the following season, racked his first podium finishes, and took his first win the season after that. He finishes second behind Fernando Alonso the next season, well ahead of the rest of the pack, and switched to Ferrari two seasons later in 2007, winning the world championship on his first season in red. After just three seasons, Ferrari showed him the door and Kimi left F1 entirely, trying his hand at everything from the World Rally Championship to NASCAR. He returned to F1 with Lotus in 2012, and in a rare move for Maranello, was invited back for this season on a two-year contract.
LaFerrari Spider among Maranello's future product plans
Thu, 19 Jun 2014Niche though its products may be, Ferrari typically rolls out a new model every year. 2009, for example, saw the introduction of the California. In 2010 came the 458 Italia, followed by the 458 Spider in 2011. In 2012 we greeted the FF, and in 2013 both the F12 Berlinetta and 458 Speciale. This year the hyper-exotic LaFerrari was joined by the California T, and you can bet that Maranello will keep up that pace by rolling out new versions of and replacements for each of these models in succession.
Among the plans which Car and Driver reports Ferrari has afoot will be an open-top LaFerrari Spider - something which the Prancing Horse marque hasn't done at the top of its range since the F50, which came exclusively with a removable hardtop. The 6.3-liter hybrid V12 will likely carry over unchanged, as will most of the other parameters, but for the joy of experiencing 1,000 horsepower with the wind in your hair - and the exclusivity of being one of the just 50 owners - we're told to expect a price tag roughly double that of the existing $1.35 million coupe.
Of course, Ferrari has more plans than simply chopping the roof off its hybrid hypercar. In Geneva next March, the House that Enzo Built is tipped to introduce a Modificato version of the 458 with a twin-turbo V8 producing around 670 horsepower - over one hundred horses more than in the new California T. A refresh for the all-wheel-drive FF is also said to be underway for 2016, when it will receive a less awkward roofline and the possible addition of a V8 base version alongside the V12 that will remain naturally aspirated. As it will in the updated F12 due the following year.
