You are bidding on a very clean, original, and well maintained 1987 Ferrari Testarossa with a clean CarFax. The iconic 12 cylinder 4.9L Testarossa has become very collectable in the last couple of years and prices, as with all classic Ferrari's, are going up so now is the time to buy before they become out of reach.
The paint on this car is 100% original with no sign whatsoever of even a minor touch-up. The overall condition of this 26 year old paint is excellent. There are no dents, scratches, or door dings anyplace on the car. There are what I would consider less than the normal amount of small chips that you would typically expect on a car of this age and miles and they are mostly on the front black spoiler, there is a small chip on the front of the right fender, a small chip on the leading edge of the front boot, and 2 small chips on the right side rear wheel well edge. All in all extremely minor.
The interior is tan leather, original, and in overall very good condition. There is only minimal wear on the drivers seat that you would expect and as with all light colored interiors the grain of the leather is becoming more visible. The passenger seat is near perfect. These seats can be professionally dyed their original color and they would look like new seats. The carpets, dash, and door panels, are original and in very good condition as well. There is some minor wear on the drivers side sill and with the drivers side door weatherstrip from getting in and out of the car. The stereo has been upgraded to an Alpine AM/FM/CD with an Alpine amplifier and 12 disc changer in the boot. Everything on this car works including the ice cold AC, power shoulder belt retractors, power windows, lights, gauges, wipers, etc. Options include 18 inch Speedline wheels, Momo steering wheel, Tubi stainless steel exhaust, passenger side mirror, and shields.
Mechanically this car is in excellent condition. It runs and drives perfect and just recently passed an emissions test with ease. The steering is tight, the brakes are solid with lots of meat on the pads, and it runs and drives excellent. The tires are almost new Bridgestone Potenza's all the way around. The car is due for a belt service by time and not miles. I have not sent it out for the service as many people would prefer to have their own mechanic preform the service and the car has been priced accordingly. However, at the buyer's discretion and expense I would be happy to assist in having a local Ferrari shop of the buyer's choice or one known by me and with the buyer's consent preform the service.
This car is being offered exactly how we received it so that the buyer can decide on weather to keep it as original as possible or what and where to recondition. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me via e-mail or at (714) 535-8555 before bidding. The winning bidder is required to place a $500.00 deposit via PayPal within 24 hours of the end of auction with the balance due via wire transfer within 5 business days from the end of auction. Any other arrangements for payment must be agreed to in writing and before hand. It is the buyer's responsibility to arrange shipping but we would be happy to assist in this. Vehicles sold for use and/or registration in California will have all applicable fees and taxes due in addition to the amount of the willing bid. This car is for sale locally and we reserve the right to end this auction early in the event it sells. Thanks and good luck!

Totaled Ferrari Dino sculpture sold for $250k
Wed, 06 Nov 2013How much would you pay for a Dino? Although this sub-brand was supposed to offer lower-cost alternatives to more expensive Ferraris, a 246 GTS model with "chairs and flares" can fetch big bucks. The later, more angular 308 GT4 is less desirable, but the one above just sold for $250,000. Oh, and it's a complete wreck - an absolute write-off, as you can see. So how did it fetch a quarter million when it wouldn't be worth that much in pristine condition? Because this is art.
"Objet trouvé", to be specific, the French term for a common object elevated to a work of art. That's the way it ended up displayed by celebrated French artist Bertrand Lavier and the Galerie Yvon Lambert at the Foire Internationale d'Art Contemporain (FIAC) art fair at the Grand Palais in Paris last week, where an unnamed Turkish collector paid the landmark price. Let's hope he's not planning on restoring it, because it's apparently worth more totaled.
NHTSA fines Ferrari $3.5 million for missing reports
Fri, 31 Oct 2014Ferrari will pay a $3.5 million penalty for family to comply with oversight requirements set forth by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The federal agency that oversees road safety in the United States announced Friday morning that Ferrari had not submitted early warning reports for the past three years. These reports help the agency identify potential or existing safety threats.
In the wake of the rolling recalls for defective General Motors ignition switches, there has been considerable scrutiny of NHTSA's handling - or mishandling - of these early warning reports. Friday's fine is an indication the agency is taking its enforcement mandates more seriously, albeit against a manufacturer that has no large-scale presence on American roads.
Ferrari planning sleeker FF coupe?
Thu, 10 Apr 2014There are a lot of things you could call the Ferrari FF. Innovative, advanced, pioneering, ponderous... beautiful may not be one of them, though. Because while it does pack Ferrari's first all-wheel drive system, it doesn't pack it into a very pretty shape, alternately described as a chopped shooting brake or stretched hatchback. Word has it, though, that Ferrari is working on a solution.
That solution, according to Car and Driver, would be to chop it down into an FF coupe. Apparently separate from the SP FFX project that ultimately emerged as a one-off, this rebody could potentially solve the FF's stylistic shortcomings and attract more buyers, while retaining the 6.3-liter V12 engine that drives 651 prancing horses to all four wheels. But here's where it gets tricky: if Ferrari simply sloped the roofline and got rid of the rear seats, the finished product would end up precariously close to the F12 Berlinetta, albeit with an extra set of driven wheels.
We'd sooner guess that Maranello would lengthen the form slightly to keep the rear seats, add a trunk and give it a more graceful profile, though the elongated form of the preceding 612 Scaglietti strikes us as what Ferrari was trying to get away from with the FF in the first place. And guessing is as good as we've got at this point, as our attempts to get more from Ferrari PR resulted in a sad (if predictable) "no comment."
