Ive had this Ferrari for quite some time. It has mostly sat in my warehouse. I did start the car and occasionally drive around on Sundays. Last year we had the car wrapped for, and took it to events. The car has not been raced, or abused. During the wrap process a few small blisters in the paint were brought to my attention. The blisters were removed, and rust treatment was performed on a couple of surface rust areas the roughly the size of a quarter. After that, I really began to scrutinize the car. I have noticed a few items that I will list below. In general, the car starts and drives very well. The car is complete including the original owners manuals. I really like driving the car, but my lack of attention is beginning to take a toll. The car will need a caring restoration by the next owner. I will list the condition of everything that I am aware of Exterior--No dents or accidents.few small surface blemishespaint is oxidizedwrap is easily removable and will not damage the carall turn lenses are intact and not broken Interior--the seats will need re-upholsteredthe sun roof will need recoverednew carpet would be a plusowners manual presentnothing missing that I've noticedwindows roll up and downdoors open with no sagging trunk-spare wheelextra spare wheel included engine-starts right up warms up in less than a minuteno smokinglast major service at 30,000(14 years ago)could use a tune up(tune up parts included purchased at orlando ferrari)could use valve cover gaskets(few drops after driving, mechanic advised changing valve cover gasketsI would change the beltsnew fans installed in 2014(original fans included) fluidly through all gearsclutch is tight tires--could use new tires brakes--stops fine, but i would replace the pads and grease the bearings The car is drivable around town on short trips, but I haven't driven it over 100 miles in more that 2 years. I wouldn't trust the old tires for highway speeds A car like this deserves an owner that has time to refurbish it. It is a driving project, but it is a project. It is NOT perfect. But it isn't a difficult restoration either. Very solid, low original mileage investment grade Ferrari.

Bonhams auction at Quail Lodge led by 1959 Ferrari 250 GT Competizione
Sat, Aug 15 2015It doesn't take too much knowledge of the classic car market to figure out that, when it comes to values, Ferrari leads the pack. Bonhams 2015 Quail Lodge Auction did absolutely nothing to buck that trend with four of the five top sellers bearing the Prancing Horse. While none came near the auction house's sale of a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO for $38.115 million last year, there were still beauties in the bunch. The leader among these thoroughbreds was a 1959 Ferrari 250 GT Competizione Alloy Berlinetta (pictured above) that went for $8.525 million, including the buyer's premium. It was one of just seven vehicles made to this specification and raced extensively when new, scoring a win in competition at Watkins Glen. A classic 1971 Ferrari 365 GTS/4 Daytona Spider brought $2.64 million, and a somewhat more modern 1985 288 GTO had the hammer drop at $2.365 million. The final Prancing Horse in the top five was a 1951 212 Inter Cabriolet with a body by Vignale for $2.2 million. It scored second-in-class at the 2014 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. Overturning the Ferrari trend, a 1955 Lancia Aurelia B24S Spider America rounded out the top five with a sale price of $1,952,500. While these are the most expensive vehicles to cross the block, you can check Bonhams' website for the results on all 111 lots. It's a wonderful array of largely European sports cars that are all in top shape.
Autoblog remembers its favorite Ferrari models of the Montezemolo Era
Thu, 11 Sep 2014Italian cars have a reputation for drawing out the fiery, emotional and passionate sides of car enthusiasts - something that becomes abundantly clear when you ask a group of Autoblog editors to rank a list of their favorites.
With the departure of Luca di Montezemolo from Ferrari being fresh on our collective minds today, your friendly team of editors started pleasantly discussing which of the cars launched during his era was our favorite. The conversation was rousing, so we thought it would be entertaining to put the choices to a quick ranked vote, and bring you a sort of Editors' Choice list for road-going Ferraris from the 1990s through today.
Then, of course, all hell broke loose.
Ferrari celebrates 10 million Facebook fans, animates Montezemolo
Fri, 07 Dec 2012Kia has 2.1 million fans on Facebook, though we'd wager that far more people worldwide own Kias than are fans of the Korean automaker's page. On the other hand, Ferrari, whose owners number just a lucky few, has a legion of fans counted in the millions. In fact, the Facebook page for the Italian automaker just surpassed 10 million Likes.
To celebrate this social media milestone, Ferrari has put together this cute little video below, featuring chairman Luca di Montezemolo, as well as a few other animated guest appearances.
For comparison's sake, major corporations like Pepsi have 9.1 million fans, Kohl's has 9.7 million fans, and Wal-Mart has 25+ million fans. For a car company that sells a few thousand units a year, 10+ million upstretched thumbs is quite the following.
