2005 Ferrari 612 Scaglietti Base Coupe 2-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
Known as the gentleman's Ferrari, the 612 is a modern GT car with 4 usable seats in a grand touring class car. The Ferrari 612 is based upon a custom car commissioned by Roberto Rossellini for Ingrid Bergman, the 375 MM. The color was a custom color for Ms. Bergman - "Grigio Ingrid." The new 612 is called the Scaglietti after Sergio Scaglietti who was known as the master of aluminum built the Ferrari grail, the 250 GTO. This car is in Grigio Ingrid with Nero Daytona seats. It was originally purchased at Cauley Ferrari in West Bloomfield, where I purchased it later as a CPO car. I am the second owner. The car was CPO which means Cauley Ferrari put the car through the Ferrari multipoint inspection and then extended the warranty to me as the new buyer. <a href="www.ferrariapproved.com"></a> <a href=http://inventory.cauleyferrari.com/2005-ferrari-612-scaglietti-c-5.htm></a> Since then, it has been dealer maintained at the Auto Gallery Woodland Hills who, until recently, were the Ferrari authorized service in my area. (They just decided to give up their Ferrari dealership in favor of Maseratti a couple of months ago. Everything is up to date, with the car's last major service December of 2013. The belts were last changed January 2011 and according to my Ferrari maintenance book are due in 5 years or 30,000 miles since the last change. This car needs nothing and has been extremely well maintained. The paint was just cleaned and treated with Opti coat for a super deep shine and added clear coat protection. http://www.opti-coat.com There is very little wear on the interior, most of it looks new. All leather has been treated and has no major flaws. There are no scratches or dings on the entire car. The only sign that the car is not new are a few road chips to the front bumper as well as a few minor road chips on the front wheels. The factory covers, manuals, battery tender, and accessories are included. An aftermarket outdoor cover as well as a dealer installed aftermarket tender is also included. There have been no aftermarket changes to the car except for the battery tender which can easily be reversed. Clutch is 83% life remaining Front Brakes are 8mm remaining Rear Brakes are 7mm remaining. Annual service, brake fluid replacement and power steering service were completed at the last service in December. Next week I am installing brand new Michelin Pilot Super Sports, so this car will come with new tires. Ask around and you will find that most Ferrari enthusiasts think these are the ultimate tires for the 612 or 550. I have taken this car to a couple of dealers as a trade on a new Ferrari I am purchasing. They both have offered a wholesale price for the car. The reserve price for this auction is at their highest offer, so anyone who purchases the car at reserve will buy the car at the current wholesale market value. There are no sticky interior parts, and there is no leather shrinkage of the dash. This car is for sale locally, I may end the auction early if it sells locally before the auction ends. The car is available for local inspection in Encino, CA Title is in hand, there is no lein on the car. Shipping is at the buyers expense. There is a picture of the original car commissioned by Rossellini.

Picture attached. A picture of the CPO Report Compression test is attached. - All 12 cylinders are perfect. |

This rare vintage Ferrari is not like the others
Sun, Nov 22 2015This particular Ferrari profiled by Petrolicious is attached to many of the vital names we've come to associate with the brand, like Dino, Scaglietti, Ascari, and Formula 1. What it doesn't have is the kind of engine we've come to associate with Maranello: at the front of that delicious bodywork is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 172 horsepower. The car is a 1955 Ferrari 500 Mondial Series II Scaglietti-bodied spider, its engine derived from the 2.0-liter engine used in the Ferrari 500 race car that Alberto Ascari used to win the F1 World Championship in 1952 and 1953. We can only wonder if any of today's cars will provide the same joy at being a barn find as this one did for its affable owner, retired US Navy Admiral Robert Phillips. He discovered it in the back of a dealership in 1960 - it had been sitting unused in Ohio and California for years - and almost walked away from it. He only bought it when he realized it had a four-pot engine. He paid two-thirds of his yearly salary at the time for it, the handsome sum of $2,225. In today's money that's about $18,000. Phillips says there are only three left with the original engines, so odds are that his car's value is exponentially more than the inflation-adjusted purchase price. One of them is going on the block with RM Auctions next month which looks a lot like this one, and they've listed it as "Price on Request." Phillips is our kind of owner, though - one who believes his car is meant to be driven, and who wants to pass it on to another driver when the time comes. His vehicle has quite the history, too, making its way to the Americas thanks to a call from the president of Venezuela to Enzo Ferrari. Check out the video for its beautiful story. Related Video:
Michael Jordan's cars showcased in 'The Last Dance' documentary
Sun, May 10 2020After the masses begged and pleaded for an early release, ESPN finally unlocked the doors to the biggest production in company history last month. Episodes 1 and 2 of The Last Dance, a 10-part documentary special about Michael Jordan, the Chicago Bulls, and the 1997-1998 season, was released at last on April 19, 2020. Each week since, two new episodes have aired on Sunday nights, and the next two, episodes 7 and 8 are scheduled to drop this weekend on May 10. With unprecedented video access to MJ, who became averse to the media during his playing days, a byproduct from The Last Dance is a look at some of Jordan's cars. The Goat's taste ranges across a number of brands, but they all had one thing in common: performance as a top priority. Below, we have listed the rides that have already appeared in the series, and each week, we will update with new car cameos. Chevrolet Corvette C4 The photo above somewhat epitomizes one of the themes of The Last Dance. Everybody, whether that was men, women, children, franchise owners, reporters, coaches, teammates, or opponents, wanted a piece of Jordan. If that meant stopping in the middle of the road to get an autograph, then so be it. Around town, MJ was fairly easy to spot due to his flashy cars that occasionally wore Bulls red. Jordan has driven numerous Corvettes throughout the years, but the C4 is unique in that it was Chevy's top ride when Jordan signed an endorsement deal with the American company during his rookie year in 1984. Two famous photos, one in front of the Chicago skyline, show him standing next to a C4 with the license plate "Jump 23." This exact car, however, came later, as indicated by the squared-off taillights. He went on to star in a number of Chevrolet commercials with vehicles such as the Blazer and S-10 pickup truck. Chevrolet Corvette C5 The most notable Corvette His Airness ever owned was likely the C4 40th Anniversary ZR-1, but he also drove a C5 coupe at one point. Roughly nine minutes into the first episode, Jordan is seen driving the chrome-wheeled targa top into the parking lot at the Berto Center, the Bulls old practice facility. Ferrari 550 Maranello Roughly three minutes into episode four, viewers get a glimpse of Jordan's exotic taste in the form of a red Ferrari 550 Maranello.
Race Recap: 2014 Singapore Grand Prix is back-to-front
Mon, 22 Sep 2014To paraphrase Guy Fawkes, 'Remember, remember the twenty-first of September.' That's the day the 2014 Formula One Championship took another big turn - and at one of the year's least interesting races, traditionally - putting Lewis Hamilton back at the top of the standings. Not only that, it did so by borrowing the template from the British Grand Prix this year: put Hamilton in front, retire Nico Rosberg.
It was close until then, though, Hamilton lining up on pole for Mercedes AMG Petronas just seven thousandths of a second ahead of Rosberg. Daniel Ricciardo, the year's greatest opportunist, took third ahead of his teammate Sebastian Vettel in the Infiniti Red Bull Racing, followed by Fernando Alonso in fifth for Ferrari. The Williams' looked like they'd be in trouble on Friday, but as usual they dredged up some pace on Saturday, Felipe Massa taking sixth ahead of Kimi Räikkönen in the second Ferrari, the second Williams of Valtteri Bottas in eighth. Kevin Magnussen saved a little bit of face for McLaren in ninth, and Daniil Kvyat did another solid job to line up tenth in his Toro Rosso.
Before it even started, the race wouldn't look the same.
