I have up for sale what has been my around town driver for the last year and a half or so. I have enjoyed this car thoroughly but it is time for a new Corvette!! I have put about 4,000 trouble free miles on this car and know it well. The Car went through an inspection at Ferrari of Orlando when the previous owner purchased it and had over $6,000 worth of maintenance done in 2012, including a new Ferrari Driver side Exhaust Manifold ($1,957.13), battery, oil pressure sending unit, and a new ignition switch. At the time of service Ferrari diagnosed a faulty CAT ECU. When I purchased the car, I had all three Cat ECU's replaced, two new green ECU's and a good working used Black ECU. I also had the Cats gutted to get that nice Ferrari note. (not too noisy but just perfect in my opinion). I had O2 sensor spacers installed to avoid check codes. Included with the sale are two used Cat's. not the best shape but will allow for the car to pass inspection in a state that requires it.

Now on to the car. This car gets constant attention, and is an absolute blast to drive. The engine fires up every time with no issues, the transmission shifts like butter, and the clutch was replaced at about 25K miles and grips very well. The timing belts were replaced at around 29K miles. This vehicle was issued a Salvage/rebuilt title early on in its life and has had lots of trouble free miles put on since. I have been all over this car and cannot find any signs of damage or repair, and it also drives perfectly, with no issues. The Orlando Ferrari dealer also could not find any signs of previous repair and was surprised to hear of the rebuilt title on this car. The Autocheck also shows no Accidents so I don't know???? I did a compression check and got the following results:

Bank 1: 1: 170 2:170 3:175 4:165 Bank 2: 5:175 6:175 7:175 8:175 This car does not smoke, make any strange noises, or use oil at all. I just replaced the oil with Mobil 1 Synthetic and a fresh Ferrari oil filter.


This car presents very nicely but with full disclosure in mind there are only minor signs of wear and tear, including a few rock chips, surface scratches, 2 minor dings. The interior is nice as well, with most sticky parts refinished including the A/C vents. No rips or tears in the leather, the driver seat is showing minor wear on the bolster.

This car is perfect for the buyer with intentions of driving and enjoying a Ferrari without the constant worry of devaluing the car either via mileage or wear and tear. This was my intention and I loved every second of it!!! There is nothing like getting behind the wheel of a red, 6 speed Ferrari coupe. I usually do not get attached to cars but there will be a tear in my eye when this one drives away. Tires are older, showing signs of age and wear and should be replaced soon. Wheels have some nicks and scratches but are in nice shape.

Ferrari F12 Berlinetta takes home 2014 Robb Report Car of the Year [w/video]

Tue, 25 Mar 2014

In what is being called an "unprecedented landslide decision," those who have the right to cast votes have anointed the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta as the 2014 Robb Report Car of the Year. Standout features that have helped the Ferrari earn such a runaway victory include its 0-60 blast of 3.1 seconds, its 211-mile-per-hour top speed and the exhaust note of its 731-horsepower V12 engine.
After being driven by a team of journalists and 100 or so members of the private Robb Report Club, the grand tourer beat out a total of 13 contenders that included the Audi R8 V10 Plus, Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 Roadster, Aston Martin Vanquish Volante, Bentley Continental Flying Spur, Jaguar F-Type V8 S, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe, Maserati Quattroporte GTS and Dodge SRT Viper GTS.
This is the 21st year that Robb Report has selected a Car of the Year. Scroll down below for the official announcement and video, and feel free to read more about the F12 Berlinetta and some of its worthwhile competitors over at Robb Report.

Race Recap: 2014 US Grand Prix goes the English way yet again

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

Thankfully, the weekend's Formula One dramas all concerned events that happened off the track, with both Caterham and Marussia going into administration, after which a rumored boycott by the small teams was avoided. That gave the 18 drivers left on the grid freedom to focus on making the most of the Texas sunshine for Sunday's US Grand Prix.
Having finished two Free Practices behind teammate Mercedes AMG Petronas teammate Lewis Hamilton, the second one just .003 behind, Nico Rosberg said he had speed in hand and proved it during qualifying, beating Hamilton to the top spot by four-tenths of a second. Williams drivers Valtteri Bottas and Felipe Massa came behind, followed by Daniel Ricciardo in the Infiniti Red Bull Racing, Fernando Alonso in the Ferrari, the McLaren duo of Jenson Button and Kevin Magnussen, Kimi Räikkönen in the second Ferrari, and little-team Sauber bursting out of the storm clouds into tenth, Adrian Sutil making the team's first-time Q3 appearance all year.
When it came time to race, the carbon-fiber fisticuffs began on the first lap.
