This cars story:
I bought it with about 24,000 miles in the fall of 2012 from the inventor of LineX spray in bed liners and picked it up from his warehouse outside Atlanta. He is a very wealthy man who has his own Lemans 24 hour race team, service/mechanic crew, race cars (Ferrari's and Porsche's), along with an excellent collection of other automobiles, from Hemi Road Runners, to Lancia Rally cars and more.
The car was fully serviced (major engine out service) by his mechanics for me before I picked it up, and at about 26,000 miles I had it inspected at my local Ferrari mechanic at World Class Auto, who checked everything over, verified the previous service (in case the pictures I have of the car with the engine removed weren't proof enough), and performed a tune up for me, with an oil change, plugs, fuel mapping upgrades, etc...
The ride:
In a word, AMAZING. This car blew my 328GTS away in all aspects, with awesome acceleration, handling, braking, comfort, visibility, and you could argue style as well!
How does she stack up against today's Ferrari's?
Well we brought her to our South Carolina Ferrari Club of America meeting, competed in the Rally to Highlands, and took a VERY respectable third place out of a dozen competitors, beating out guys who were driving: 458 Italia, F430, 360, 328GTS, and more. So don't think that this 24 year old collectible car is just for show, she can hang with the absolute best of them, her 12 cylinder engine provides massive amounts of torque down low, she has the racing exhaust to boost output to nearly 420HP, and the only limiting factor is usually the size of your cojones.
Attention:
Be ready for it. I'm a single 26 year old, and those prius driving losers who go downtown and take a puppy with them to pick up chicks are always left cleaning poop off the sidewalk as I drive off with the girls of their dreams.
That Asian chick in a couple of the photos modeled for Hollister, now as you can see, she models for me free of charge ;)
No joke, the first time I took this car downtown I came home about 5 minutes later with two girls sitting on top of each other in the passenger seat. Road tripping? I've cruised to Charlotte, into the mountains, and down to the ocean in this car, it's comfortable, and gets almost 20mpg when cruising at low rpm in top gear on the highway (say 90-95 mph-ish, most other times, expect roughly 15-17mpg, if you keep track of silly things like that), and your basically the star of the road the entire drive.
People can't help but stare and smile, thumbs up seem to come at you from all angles, and hotel valets just let you park right in front.
Reason for selling:
I'm moving myself, my best friend/employee, and my largest company back to Las Vegas NV before the end of the year, and I've just got way too many toys. Moving them all would be a huge pain in the butt, and I just don't have the time, or space at the moment.
I'm also selling several of my Ducati motorcycles, and I just sold my other Ferrari, a 328GTS with a 288GTO conversion kit to an existing Ferrari owner who was quite happy with the car he received from me (you've got nothing to worry about).
Condition:
Car is used, but in excellent condition, serviced properly and an excellent driver. You may find a very very small stone chip, or scratch (tiny if any) somewhere on the car, but like I said, it's in excellent condition.
Paint I would rate at 90%. I mean it looks great, and nobody has ever said anything to the contrary about it, but if you look really really closely, I found one run in the paint, and one imperfection down by the bottom of the door (it probably contacted something like a high curb lightly when the door was opening, as there are no dents).
There are no tears in the original leather seats, the original Ferrari floormats look like as though they are brand new, and everything seems to work perfectly, from the electronically adjustable mirrors, to the fog lights, driving lights, high beams, windshield wipers, parking brake, etc... The only possible problem could be considered the AC, which blows strong, but could use a re-charge (to get it colder).
Shipping, is obviously the buyers responsibility, but it's less expensive than you may have thought, feel free to check Montway auto shippers (they usually have the best rates and times - only cost $750 to ship my last Ferrari to Boston, and it was picked up 1 day after I called to schedule, and delivered 2 days after pick up!).
However, this car is GREAT!!! You can simply fly into GSP (greenville spartanburg airport), I'll pick you up you can drive her home to any part of this country problem free. Enjoy the road trip on the way home, it will be fun.

2015 Ferrari California T [w/video]
Tue, 03 Jun 2014I'll never forget the day I bought my very first Ferrari. It was a bright-red F40, I'd saved up for it for what felt like an eternity and I couldn't wait to get home so I could park it next to my other four-wheeled piece of pride and joy, a stealth-black Lamborghini Countach, so I could compare their blunt-edge, wedge-like shapes and massive spoilers in microscopic detail.
The year was 1987, and the event felt like the pinnacle of my life's achievement. Though both of my Italians had been die-cast in 1/18th scale, I coveted the two supercars with the verve of a true collector, taking in the intricacies of their engine bays, opening their doors and turning their working steering wheels. In reality, the two could have hardly been more different, and yet they both looked like finely crafted perfection to my seven-year-old eyes, their questionable day-to-day practicality completely overshadowed by their unquestionably exotic shapes.
More than two decades later, I'm belting myself into the driver's seat of the 2015 Ferrari California T, the first turbocharged Ferrari since the F40 went out of production in 1992. The Tuscan countryside spreads out ahead, a twisting barrage of two-lane roads on the agenda, and I can't help but reminisce of my much younger self as I twist the red key and thumb the equally red ignition button on the steering wheel.

Alonso and Rossi to field Ferrari at Le Mans?
Thu, 26 Dec 2013The plot thickens and just keeps thickening when it comes to Ferrari's potential return to Le Mans. Antonello Coletta, the head of Ferrari's sports car racing program, first suggested that the new regulations being implemented by the ACO could potentially see the Prancing Horse marque compete in the top-tier LMP1 class. His thoughts have since been echoed by Stefano Domenicali, the head of the Scuderia's F1 team, and by chairman Luca di Montezemolo. And now we're hearing rumors over its potential driver lineup.
Word has it that Ferrari could send Valentino Rossi and Fernando Alonso to pilot its prototype at Le Mans in 2015 or 2016. The rumors were tweeted by Mark Webber (embedded below), who recently left F1 to drive for Porsche at Le Mans - and could amount to pure speculation, to some inside track on hard news or (as is often the case) something in between. One way or another, both Rossi and Alonso are multiple world champions in their fields with strong ties to Maranello and would make a formidable lineup - particularly if paired, we'd venture, with Ferrari's test driver Marc Gené, who won at Le Mans with Peugeot in 2009.
Although the Rossi connection would seem the greater stretch, it might actually make the most sense of the two. With nothing left to prove on two wheels, the seven-time MotoGP champion has been talking about leaving the series. He's test-driven Ferrari F1 cars on several occasions and raced the Ferrari 458 Italia GT3 in the Blancpain Endurance Series last season. The move would be a rare departure for Alonso, however, who has raced almost exclusively in open-wheel single seaters his entire career, and would need to balance the program with his F1 commitments. That is, assuming he doesn't get fed up with chasing after Sebastian Vettel and teaming with Kimi Raikkonen by then.
