Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"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, everything seems to work perfectly, from the electronically adjustable mirrors, to the fog lights, driving lights, high beams, windshield wipers, etc... The only possible problem could be considered the AC, which blows strong, but could use a re-charge (to get it colder)."

Bonus with BUY IT NOW!!!

BUY IT NOW and receive for no additional charge, the 4 original wheels, with like new tires, and 2 extra, very comfortable racing bucket seats that make it easier for people over 6'2 to sit in and drive the car. (I'm 6'1'' and perfectly comfortable with an extra 1.5''s of headroom so I never swapped the seats to the racing buckets which were custom made for the previous owner, out of the best materials).


Moving right along...

1989 Ferrari Testarossa with only 26,6XX (may go up by 20 - 40 before auction end) miles.

This is a beautiful Testarossa in excellent condition that's been serviced properly and driven frequently over the past year with no problems at all.

If you're looking at this car, I don't think I need to go into detail about the specs, power, etc... you should know just how amazing the Testarossa is already, and PLEASE, SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY.

Extra features include:
  • Tubi Exhaust
  • OZ Racing wheels (with Pirelli P-Zero tires with TONS of tread left!)
  • Real Carbon Fiber accents throughout interior
  • Premier Audio complete sound system (CD player, Amp, speakers, tweeters, etc...)
  • Manuals (service, diagnostic, etc... all included)

Title is clear, and in my hands, ready to go.

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.

2017 Ferrari GTC4Lusso First Drive

Wed, Jul 6 2016

The Ferrari FF is a monster, a four-wheel-drive bread van with a 6.3-liter V12 that people like us have adored since it arrived in 2011. It's great to drive and better to look at, a shooting brake with more power, less practicality, and a higher price tag than pretty much anything else in this shape. Ferrari has sold almost 6,000 of them, handily beating its target of 800 per year. It was a success by any measure. Its replacement, the GTC4Lusso, might sound like something out of Ferrari's mad, bad Sixties brochures, but under the skin is pretty much the same aluminum-alloy space frame of the FF. Ferrari has carefully listened to its critics on practicality, price, and power, and duly made the GTC more powerful, pricier, and not much more practical. There have been some slight stylistic adjustments. A scallop was cut into the front fender and door skins to reduce the visual weight, and the roofline has been extended, terminating in a slight spoiler at the waist, which is said to improve aerodynamic efficiency by up to six percent. It looks sharp and mean on its 20-inch five-spoke alloys, although some of the detail, such as the wing vents and the absurdly long hood, verge on the cartoonish. The basic 65-degree, 6.3-liter, quad-cam V12 stays largely the same, but has a higher compression ratio and redesigned cylinder heads and pistons, which make the fuel/air mix burn more efficiently and consequently provides 30 more horsepower. The engine shrieks to 8,250 rpm, but peak power is 681 hp at 8,000 rpm with peak torque of 514 pound-feet produced at 5,750 rpm. Top speed remains the same at 208 mph, but the 0–62 mph acceleration time comes down slightly to 3.4 seconds. US gas mileage is yet to be homologated, but the European-cycle figures improve slightly – not that you care. The engine drives a rear-mounted, seven-speed, twin-clutch transaxle and then there is that extraordinary four-wheel-drive system, which consists of a simple, helical-cut, hydraulically controlled gearbox running off the front of the crankshaft. It weighs 100 pounds and has two speeds plus reverse and a couple of Haldex-type clutches to activate each wheel when required in first to fourth gears and at speeds below 124 mph. New for the GTC is a ZF rear-steering system, a ram powered by an electric motor that pushes the rear suspension against its bushings to give a couple of degrees steering in either direction.

Ferrari to debut new twin-turbo California in the spring

Wed, 18 Dec 2013

Ferrari hadn't made a turbocharged engine since the F40 ended its production cycle in 1992. But that all changed when it helped Maserati develop its new 3.8-liter twin-turbo V8. That turbo engine has so far been shoehorned into the Quattroporte, along with its 3.0-liter V6 cousin that also powers the smaller Ghibli. But soon it'll wear the Prancing Horse badge as further details emerge on the next-generation California.
Set to arrive in time for the spring (likely to be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March), the new California will reportedly ditch its naturally-aspirated V8 in favor of a reworked version of the Quattroporte's twin-turbo unit, which at 523 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque is already considerably more muscular than the current California's 483 hp and 372 lb-ft.
The new California will likely be closely based on the outgoing model, but benefit from revised aluminum sheetmetal and an updated cabin with a new infotainment system - two areas in which the current model has scored low marks.

Ferrari stock sale pegged for October, or later

Sat, Jun 6 2015

The Ferrari IPO is still coming, but it won't be before Columbus Day (Monday, October 12, that is), according to Fiat Chrysler Automobiles CEO Sergio Marchionne. The outspoken exec is blaming tax reasons for the fourth-quarter date, according to a report from Reuters. Marchionne said a full year needed to pass between FCA's October 13, 2014 Wall Street debut and any additional listing. This isn't the first delay in the Ferrari IPO. FCA was originally supposed to make a 10-percent offering of Ferrari during second or third quarter of 2015, before officially pushing things back to the third quarter of this year. Now, it's unclear if Ferrari will even go public before the dawn of 2016.
