1980 FERRARI 308 GTSi (Fuel Injected Model)
We are a vehicle export company, located in
the heart of Daytona Beach, Florida , USA, Racing Capital;-). We acquired this
Ferrari from a client who had an overdue pending/delinquent payment owed to us. It was supposed to have been exported to
Brazil two years ago. The car has since been parked in our warehouse for almost
2 years. Once we took possession of the vehicle, we
sent it over to our mechanic (who is NOT a Ferrari expert) and he told us we
would have to spend between $5,000.00 to $15,000.00 for timing belt service etc...
It's crazy. For that reason we were thinking to swap the original engine for
something more modern, faster, etc. That classic Ferrari body with a Corvette
LS Serie or a Hayabusa turbo engine… this would make it a good option for the
South American track-day market…Believe or not. I know it's a Ferrari, but its original engine
isn't exactly the most up-to-date in "fast technology". Definitely
not.... lol... To sell this car in parts would be the best
option to receive the most money out of it. But unfortunately we don't have
time for that. We are located in Florida, but we don't work with car sales in
the USA market, especially parts wise. To sell the car in a whole is not the best
option for us money-wise, but it is a whole lot easier. Maybe this would be ideal for someone with
connections for cheaper service... or even to sell as/for parts. We don't know the exact cost of service needed
for the timing belt. Could be anywhere from 5, 10 or 15 thousand… If the car is not sold in this auction,
we will go back to our crazy "affordable Ferrari" race car
project.....When life gives you lemons…you get it. Pictures of the Ferrari are attached. Please,
look at all the pictures. The car has a very nice solid body, with all
original parts including the 04 wheels, central console controls, Top, ID tags,
etc… It's a NO RESERVE auction. The highest bidder
will take it home. SOLD AS IS Thank you and happy bidding! On Feb-04-14 at 23:05:06 PST, seller added the following information:
On Feb-05-14 at 00:11:39 PST, seller added the following information: Also, please note the car is 30 years old and has been sitting for 2 years. The key turns, it starts up badly but surely, but will cut
off eventually and can be started again. When I accelerate, I hear a fluttering noise. Feels like a Engine misfire. It sounds like an incomplete combustion in the engine cylinder. *No problems with Gears, Clutch(transmission), Brakes. *No problems with window motors, radio, headlight motors, ac(not sure) *The car has never been in a wreck and the previous owner said the paint is original. I don't know how to verify if it's true or not but it looks good. |

F1 teams to test titanium skid plates to reignite spark in series
Sun, 22 Jun 2014The 2014 Formula One season opened with one overwhelming complaint - the cars didn't sound right. It sapped the excitement, despite the fact that this season has seen a number of truly thrilling races (Bahrain, Spain and Montreal all come to mind). Attempts have been made to restore some of the audible thrill of the cars, although efforts have remained unsuccessful.
If F1 can't fix the sound of the cars, then other methods need to be considered to restore its self-perceived lack of excitement. One of those involves fitting titanium skid plates to the cars in a bid to reintroduce the sparks that were so prevalent in the sport's past.
Mercedes-AMG and Ferrari conducted initial experiments with the new skid plates during early practice sessions for the 2014 Austrian Grand Prix. Kimi Raikkonen and Nico Rosberg had the plates fitted to different locations of their cars, in a bid to see which created the most dramatic sparks. Considering the photos the tests, though, neither Mercedes' nor Ferrari's setup really seemed successful, which is why you're seeing Johnny Herbert and his 1989 Benneton B188 up top.
James May's Ferrari 488 GTB road test makes us miss Top Gear
Thu, Jun 11 2015Whoever the BBC lines up for the next iteration of Top Gear, the reality with which we're coming to grips is that the show will likely never be the same. The question is whether the departing hosts will ever be the same without each other, and without the show that brought them together. This clip could go a long way towards answering that question, though. In this video review for the Driving section of the Sunday Times, James May joined the gaggles of gathering journalists in Maranello to check out the new Ferrari 488 GTB. And suffice it to say, it's not quite as entertaining (or even as well-informed) as most of the segments in which we've grown accustomed to seeing Captain Slow driving fast cars. James does have some rather relevant experience he might have imparted, though, seeing as how he didn't just drive the ultimate version of the preceding model – he went out and bought himself a 458 Speciale shortly before losing his job. So with GBP200k of car payments to make, we're hardly surprised to see him fronting for another operation. Whether it's worthy of him or not, you'll want to watch the clip to decide for yourself.
Aston Martin may soon follow Ferrari with a London IPO
Fri, May 19 2017Aston Martin may soon be following Ferrari's lead, as Automotive News reports that people within the British automaker say it may soon consider an initial public offering. If it happens Aston Martin will likely list in London, not New York like Ferrari. While some in the industry were initially wary of Ferrari's move, the company is doing better than ever, with shares rising 62 percent since its IPO in 2015. An IPO could be a huge plus for Aston Martin. The company is looking to boost both sales and profit. Ferrari and Aston Martin sell similar vehicles at similar price points, but Ferrari has a much wider audience, even if most of those fans will never even sit inside one of its cars. That would likely be a big sticking point in estimating Aston Martin's value. It also moves half as many units as Ferrari per year. Aston Martin does have a new crossover on the horizon. Like Porsche, a crossover has the potential to more than double the automaker's sales. Even without it, fourth quarter profits in 2016 notably increased, fueled by solid sales of the new DB11. The IPO won't happen until sometime next year. The company wants to wait on a full 2017 earnings report.
