2001 Ferrari Spider (Euro)

Original and only owner.  The VIN is ZFFYT53B000125373.

This is a European specification car that I bought new while I was living in London.  I determined early on that the car was better suited to my vacation home in Florida and engaged Autosport Designs of Long Island, NY to do the EPA and DOT work.  I titled the car in Florida in 2003 where it has remained.  I returned from London in 2005 and have since been using the car regularly.

Obviously not for the red/tan buyer, this monochromatic car is pretty low key for a Ferrari.

The interior, roll hoops and convertible top are all in gray and the exterior is Argento Nurburgring.

The car is accident-free and in excellent overall condition.

The exterior has a few stone chips and there are a few small scratches over the rear bumper cover, but they are not really noticeable.  I never tracked the car but I have driven it almost 24k miles.  Chips happen.

The interior is likewise in excellent condition.  All the sticky switch gear has been cleaned or refinished.  The upper dash shrunk, which is not uncommon under the Florida sun.  I had it replaced by Ferrari and it remains in great condition.  I had ceramic film installed on all glass to help prevent a reoccurrence.   The driver’s seat shows a little wear (see photos), but it’s in great condition for being 13 years old.  The passenger seat rarely held a passenger.  The original floor mats were wearing out, so I added the ones pictured.  The originals will go with the car.

I'm happy to accommodate a pre-purchase inspection at buyer's expense.

SERVICE HISTORY:

The car has been timely and fully serviced exclusively by authorized Ferrari dealerships (first by Ferrari of Ft. Lauderdale and more recently by Ferrari of Tampa Bay).  I will gladly detail dates and descriptions of services performed but will not scan and email copies.  Of course, the extensive and complete service history is available for in-person review by potential buyers or their representatives, and the records will go with to the new owner.  

The car underwent an annual service in Nov 2013.

Before that, in May 2012 at 21,981 miles, the car underwent a belt service and had a new clutch installed, including new flywheel, ring gear, etc., etc., etc., to the tune of $16k after discount.  Included in that service was a new A/C compressor to resolve a slow leak.

The new owner will get a car with absolutely no deferred maintenance.  All the weaknesses of the early 360s have been attended to.  All the expensive work has been done and is current.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

The stereo installation is reversible.  I have all the original equipment, which will go to the new owner.  I bought a second pair of door pockets for the custom door speaker installation (the speaker grills mimic the Hertz logo).  I have the original door pockets, which will go to the new owner.  Subwoofer enclosure is friction fit and easily removable for service (as pictured).

I have the original wheels and tires (which are essentially unused), which will go to the new owner.

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...

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.

LaFerrari XX coming early next year with F1 engine

Fri, 02 May 2014

With the embargo up on early reviews, the repetitively named Ferrari LaFerrari has become the supercar du jour. It has already been put through its paces by Top Gear and Evo. However, we know that Ferrari isn't done with development of its current halo model just yet. News continues to leak out about the even more hardcore LaFerrari XX track car.
Ferrari already confirmed directly to Autoblog that the XX is under development. There are even spy photos of it testing at the Nürburgring (pictured above). It reportedly clocked an astonishingly fast six-minute, 35-second lap at the historic track. The latest scuttlebutt about the track-focused supercar, according to Top Gear, is that it ditches standard car's hybrid 6.3-liter V12 engine with a combined output of 949 horsepower and 663 pound-feet of torque in favor of a Formula One-derived V6 turbo hybrid. That would be a huge change but would likely cut weight. The more insane LaFerrari could debut as soon as January or February of next year.
Ferrari says it's difficult to make the XX accelerate much quicker than a standard LaFerrari, but slick tires, revised suspension and aero changes should cut lap times. A version that doesn't have to worry about road car laws and just focuses on being fast could be truly mental.
