I am selling a replica Ferrari Daytona Spyder. It is titled as a 1985
Cali, built on a 1979 Corvette donor. I bought this car to restore, but found another project I want to put my
time and efforts into more, so the Daytona has to go to next owner. This car runs and drives good. The previous
owner had used it very sparingly the last 5 years, just running it around the block to keep the fluids stirred. It
will need all the things associated with long storage(belts, all fluids changed, hoses, filters, etc). Still
drives surprising well though, I thought it would have all kinds of squeaks and rattles being a replica, but it
doesn't. Drives like a 70s Vette. The serial numbers on the engine pad are V05047ZAJ 195436030. The chassis and
frame are nice for the age, a little surface rust here and there, no rot, the section between the front a-frames
has evidence of it hitting a rock or two, but it's still fine. The body is in excellent shape, no cracks or
damage, no evidence of any wrecks or previous bodywork. The paint looks nice from 10 or 20 feet, still shiny. Get
up close and you can see plenty of touched up scratches and chips, so it could use paint if you feel like it. The
wheels are in good shape with no curb rash. The tires about 3 years old, have less than 100 miles on them. Battery
about 1 year old. The interior is fair, the seats do not have any rips or tears, the rest of the interior shows
wear and tear. It has a wood MOMO steerng wheel. Also tilt/telescopic steering column. The odometer shows 12,548
and stills turns, I assume it has rolled over and it's really 112K miles but who knows, shows exempt on title. The
A/C still works fine, blows cold. All the gauges work except the clock. Needs some little things like the horn
doesn't work, I see a little oil drip on my floor(not a huge amount), and one of the truck hinges needs repair(I
think the bolts are stripped out and the hinge is bent some), little things like this that you can fix as you're
driving and enjoying the car. The power windows go up and down fine, but sometimes you need to wiggle the switches
a little to get them to go, so it could use new switches. Oh and the top could use replacing, its brittle and
tearing around the bottom snaps. The headlight cover door system is there, but the vacuum hoses run to nowhere, I
don't think it was ever hooked up, so the covers lay flat to expose the headlights. I took a picture of them closed
so you can see what it looks like, I did it manually.

Despite early struggles, Ferrari F1 still has Mercedes in its sights

Mon, May 9 2016

It would be an understatement to say that Ferrari has not had the opening to the 2016 Formula 1 season that it had hoped for. Having come in to the new campaign brazen about wanting a winning start, that Mercedes has taken all the poles and all race victories so far has come as a disappointment. There have been other headaches too – including reliability problems for both Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel, and of course the points lost with the China/Russia incidents with Daniil Kvyat. But perhaps of more concern is that the trend of performance has not pointed towards a narrowing of the gap between Mercedes and Ferrari – as the Silver Arrows advantage seemed greater than it had been any point this season in Russia. So with the results against it, and it seemingly having no response in pace terms, the cynics are already suggesting that it is game over for Ferrari's 2016 title ambitions. But that is not how Maranello itself sees the situation: and it still has reason to believe not only that there is plenty to play for this season: but that it can take the fight to Mercedes. Pressure game Ferrari is well aware that it needs to quickly make up lost ground in both championship standings (Mercedes has more than double its point haul) and pace terms. But rather than be downbeat about what has happened, team principal Maurizio Arrivabene still senses opportunities: especially with Mercedes appearing to be on the edge in reliability terms. And it this area that he thinks needs to be exploited to give Ferrari the opening it needs. "If you have before you a team that has won four races out of four, you cannot but take note that they are very strong," he said after the Russian Grand Prix. "But if we look at what happened to [Lewis] Hamilton [with engine problems in qualifying], we see that they also have had reliability problems. "We must put pressure on them. That is our first goal. "All their problems have happened on a single car, while ours have happened on both. But there are still 17 races to go, that is something worth emphasising, so there time to make up the difference." Power battle Ferrari introduced an upgraded engine at the Russian Grand Prix that it hoped would lift it closer to Mercedes in the power stakes. But the weekend appeared to show that wasn't the case, with Mercedes' advantage on the Sochi circuit – the fourth most power-sensitive venue on the calendar – appearing bigger than ever.

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.

Seinfeld's Porsches, '61 Ferrari lead the way at Gooding Amelia Island sale

Tue, Mar 1 2016

If you're in the market for a sports car with celebrity provenance or just an incredibly well-preserved high-performance machine, then you'll want to check out Gooding & Company's Amelia Island auction in Florida on March 11. The highlight of the sale is likely 18 cars, mostly Porsches, from Jerry Seinfeld's collection, but there's more to see than just the comedian's sporting metal. While several of Seinfeld's cars carry auction estimates in the millions, they aren't the most valuable at the sale. That honor falls on a 1961 Ferrari 250 GT SWB California Spider, which could sell for between $15 million and $17 million. This one is among the 37 examples with covered headlights, and it has some theatrical provenance after appearing in the Sophia Loren film Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow. If your tastes skew more American, then one of 31 Ford GT40 MKI road cars is also among the lots. Gooding expects the rare coupe to sell for between $3.2 million and $3.6 million. Ford originally used this GT40 for dealer promotions, but it eventually fell into private hands. Even today, its multiple owners have only covered around 3,200 miles in it. Gooding also expects a 1931 Duesenberg Model J Disappearing-Top Convertible Coupe with a body by Murphy to bring $2.5 million to $3 million. The auction house claims this might be the "most original" example left because of a history of owners who kept it for long periods – and the vehicle never needed a complete restoration. Some lots carry more attainable estimates like $35,000 for a 1962 MGA. You can check out all the listings on Gooding's online catalog and some of the highlights in the gallery above. You've probably read the news about Seinfeld's Porsches, but here's a refresher: The collection includes amazing cars like a 550 Spyder, 917/30 Can-Am Spyder, and a 718 RSK. Related Video:
