This particular example is a well-maintained and thoroughly documented example complete with service records back to 1995 and book set. Finished in a wonderfully elegant color combination of grey with dark blue interior, this car was sold new on 31 May 1995 in San Antonio, Texas. Its original window sticker price was $121,900. The car remained in Texas until 2004, at which point it was relocated to California, where it has remained since. It has been regularly serviced with the following work performed since 2011: new starter, new clutch, rebuilt climate control unit, timing belt replacement (May 2013), and routine servicing.

The car is in very good largely original cosmetic condition. The paint is in very good condition, with excellent luster and few blemishes. A few small chips have been touched up, and the front bumper has light road rash and a small crack at the bottom of the valence. The front deck lid has almost no marks on it, and the lights are in excellent shape. The wheels and in very good shape, with no significant curb rash and just a few minor marks. The glass and lights are excellent as is the top, which looks virtually unused.

The interior is in good condition. The leather is intact and nice overall, though there is some wear on the driver’s seat bolster and some creasing on the seats. The instruments are in very good condition and the dashboard is in good condition, although the leather on the instrument binnacle is shrinking slightly. The switches and controls are in very good to excellent shape, though some of the black interior components such as the ashtray lid have become tacky, a common issue with Ferraris of this period. The car was fitted with an expensive aftermarket stereo system as well.

The engine compartment and front compartment are both in original and very clean condition, in keeping with a properly maintained, low-mileage car. The front compartment is surprisingly large and in essentially as new condition.

LaFerrari XX prototype pushed so hard that its suspension fails

Sun, 13 Jul 2014

Ferrari has a real challenge on its hands. It made the new LaFerrari hybrid hypercar so extreme already that it left little room to crank it up to 11 and turn it into an XX development prototype like it did with the Enzo and the 599 before it. So it's really going to have to push the envelop to take it that extra step.
That's what it has apparently set out to do with this LaFerrari prototype at Monza, where the Prancing Horse marque was spotted preparing the upcoming LaFerrari XX. In fact, testers ran the prototype so hard that they broke the car's right rear suspension. Which is bound to happen, we guess, when you try to find that extra bit of performance in a vehicle that's already one of the most capable ever devised, but only goes to show how much deeper Ferrari will have to dig to find that even sharper edge.
Either that or Ferrari's working on some sort of four-wheel steering system with automatic camber adjustment... See for yourself in the video below.

If, for some reason, you feel like we've left anything out of our coverage of the exciting new LaFerrari unveiled today in Geneva, don't fret - Ferrari has us covered. The automaker has graced us with a total of seven videos of its new hybrid supercar today including the original launch video we already showed you this morning.
The six new videos discuss a broad spectrum of topics, such as LaFerrari's overall architecture, carbon fiber chassis and body, driving dynamics and the 160-horsepower HY-KERS (HYbrid Kinetic Energy Recovery System) part of the powertrain. There is also coverage of today's auto show unveiling and, our favorite, a short video showing the car being tested around the Fiorano Circuit plus some bonus footage of past Ferrari supercars like the GTO, F40, F50 and Enzo.
In total, there is almost 30 minutes of video goodness to bring you just about all the information there is to know about LaFerrari, and all seven videos are posted below.

Giancarlo Fisichella joins fellow former F1 drivers in United SportsCar Championship

Wed, Jan 15 2014

In business or in politics, those driven by their careers typically aim for the highest position they can get to, and after they're done there, they typically retire. But not in motor racing. With an expiration date hovering in their mid-30s at best, Formula One drivers typically seek out other racing series to compete in once they've outlived their career on the grand prix circuit. And there is no lack of racing disciplines that are glad to welcome them in with open arms as motor racing royalty. With the calendar announced and the teams lined up, the roster of drivers is taking shape for the inaugural United SportsCar Championship. And while there hasn't been a large number of former F1 drivers – much less grand prix winners – lining up for the series, there have been some. Risi Competizione, the team that typically fields Ferrari entrants in American GT racing, has just announced that Giancarlo Fisichella will be driving for them in the United SportsCar Championship this season. The veteran of 231 grands prix has driven for Minardi, Jordan, Benetton, Sauber, Renault, Force India and Ferrari. In the case of the latter, he filled in for an injured Felipe Massa, and remains a Ferrari factory driver. Over the course of his fourteen years on the grid, he won three grands prix and landed on the podium 19 times. That makes Fisichella, who just turned 41 on Tuesday, the most accomplished former F1 driver to sign on for the American series, but he's not the only one. Other drivers already lined up include David Brabham, Max Papis and Christian Fittipaldi – each of whom contested a handful of grands prix in the 1990s – as well as Sebastian Bourdais, who drove for Scuderia Toro Rosso after dominating in Champ Cars for four years and left F1 in 2009 along with Fisichella, who currently looks to be the only driver lined up for this year's Rolex 24 at Daytona who's won a grand prix or even scored a podium finish. While Brabham, Papis, Fittipaldi and Bourdais will all be driving in the top-tier Prototype class, Fisichella will be trying to make his mark in the GTLM class. We'll be watching to see whether he can add that trophy to the class titles he's already accrued in the Le Mans Series, the World Endurance Championship and the 24 Hours of Le Mans itself in the five years since leaving F1.
