This 1991 Ferrari 348tb was purchased from the Mercedes dealer in Hagerstown, MD, in November of 2007. The car did not have any mechanical records at the time, but there are good records of the work done since then.

The exterior of the car is finished in "Corso Rosso" and was repainted sometime in 2007, shortly before the car was purchased. The repaint was not done to Ferrari standards, but the paint itself is in good shape with some stone chips on the front and a spot over the front right wheel well that need touch up. The four wheels are in very good condition. The front tires are new (replaced at 40,578 miles). The rear tires have good tread but are old and should not be trusted if racing the car. The doors are solid but the passenger door could use a minor alignment adjustment. The power windows work well, as an accelerator was installed in 2009 to speed up the notoriously slow window up/down process this model has become known for.

The interior is in average condition for a car of this age and mileage. The dash vents have all been renovated as they were suffering from Ferrari's "sticky plastic" problem. The carpet and mats show wear, but they are clean and without holes or stains. The tan leather on the dash and doors in is great shape. The seat leather does show some wear, particularly the driver's seat. That seat has been "re-dyed" at some point in the past and you can tell that the dye is beginning to wear through and there are clear signs of age on the driver's bolster. The headliner, both cloth and leather, is in great shape.

Mechanically, this car is in great shape. The engine out belt service was executed at 40,214 miles by Ferrari of Washington shortly after purchase and the engine still screams today. The clutch was worn when the car was purchased and a new clutch was installed at 40,783 miles. The exhaust was also bad upon purchase and was replaced at 41,251 miles. The A/C was completely rebuilt in June 2012.

Need For Speed Rivals announced for Xbox One and Playstation 4 [w/video]

Fri, 24 May 2013

Fresh from critical praise for the last installment in the series, Need For Speed: Most Wanted, Electronic Arts has formally announced that Need For Speed Rivals will be the next title in the series. Set to hit stores on November 19, the game will also be the first Need For Speed to be available on next-generation consoles Xbox One and Playstation 4, as well as the current Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.
The "rivals" in question for this NFS title are, of course, cops and street racers - nothing new there - but the gameplay is apparently getting a makeover. Players may choose to be racers, and live the life of evading cops, gaining infamy, videoing their slipperiest moves and earning Speed Points. They might also choose to play on the side of law enforcement; attaining higher ranks and faster police cars with more and increasingly challenging busts.
One big innovation in Rivals will be the use of a new play system called AllDrive. The concept is that a player can seamlessly move from playing in single player mode, to playing online with friends, without having to wait in a lobby or move through a menu interface. The game will merge one's play from single to multiplayer as your friends across the web go on and offline, and you can choose to interact with them or not, as you like.

Race Recap: 2013 Bahrain Grand Prix follows the template of this year and last [spoilers]

Mon, 22 Apr 2013

The sand, the wind, the penalties, the contact and the one crash - all of them collided to make the Bahrain Formula One Grand Prix a surprise affair from day to day and lap to lap. Oh, and did we mention the tires? Pirelli made a last-minute swap after the amusement park ride that the Chinese Grand Prix turned into with the soft compound tire, and brought medium and hard compounds to the desert. That didn't stop things from falling apart for some teams - literally - and that didn't stop the one team that seems to love the hard compound Pirelli tire.

1960 Ferrari 250 GT sells for over $8 million in record-setting RM auction weekend

Tue, 22 Jan 2013

Although the vast majority of eyeballs were tuned to the madness at Barrett-Jackson this past weekend, that televised car auction wasn't the only high-dollar game in Arizona. RM Auctions brought its usual gaggle of exotic wares to the desert, and the car that came out on top sold for much more than Barrett-Jackson's highest sale, the Batmobile.
Coming out on top at RM last weekend was Lot 164, a 1960 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta 'Competizione' that sold for a massive $8,140,000 - the buyer could've nearly bought two Barris Batmobiles for that chunk of change. Lot 122, a 1967 Shelby 427 'Semi-Competition' Cobra, stood at $2,007,500 in second place, just in front of Lot 145, a 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4, which sold for $1,842,500.
After all said and done, RM reported $36.4 million in sales. That's a record for RM in Arizona, even though the total number of lots for 2013 was reduced significantly. Eight machines cracked the million-dollar mark, and you can see all of them in the press release right down below or peruse all of the auction results here. But first, be sure to scroll through our high-res image gallery of live photos above.
