This is a 1981 not an 1980 Ferrari 512 BBi vin #
ZFFJA09B000038713. It's likely one of the lowest mileage and the best early injected Boxers in the world. I would
not be saying this if I did not spend a good amount of years owning and inspecting these beautiful, last of the
hand built Ferraris. Scaglieti was hired by the Ferrari factory to hand build these great mid-engined super cars of
the 70's and 80's. The panels were put onto wooden bucks and hammered to shape by very talented craftsman. No
Ferrari has gotten built this way since the Boxer went out of production in 1984.
The car being offered here is truly a time warp car! It has just 1600 miles. It's the 5th injected Boxer build.
This is an 1981 production year car. A classic color combination of Rosso Chiaro with black boxer trim. Beautiful
tan interior with the Daytona style seats and black inserts. The car was a Borgata Casino featured show car. There
is a one inch thick well organized folder on its history and origin. You will find an incredible wealth of
information like the original bill of sale, letters and telegrams from the first owner and Ferrari SPA. Certificate
of origin, copies of checks to Ferrari through Luigi Chinetti, payment certificates, importation and freight
documents, receipts from Classic Coach, Importation Tag with Pallet number and destination report and so on. The
DOT releases are part of that paper work. Classic Coach out of NJ did the DOT conversion. The car also comes with
every thing it came from the factory, including an original hard to find sales brochure. The original quartz clock
tag. These materials are in concourse condition. Please refer to the pictures of these materials. The car has had
some minor paint work over the years, but still retains most of it's original paint. The car had an engine out
service about 8 years ago so it's due for a major service. The car runs and drives absolutely incredible! Cold A/C.
It retains it's original interior, dash leather and stereo equipment all in mint condition. This car has never been
restored! It is truly a mint condition car, as it should be with having just 1600 miles. This is a museum quality
Boxer. If you ever wanted a Boxer that has not been molested or brought back to life after years of driving, this
may be the car to own. I looked at so many cars, some were excellent examples alright, but none came close to this
car's quality. Remember a car is only original once. The mid-engined flat 12 cylinder engined Ferraris are one of
my favorite Ferrari designs and is a memorable experience every time you drive one! The car must be seen in person,
as pictures do not do it justice. The mid-engined Ferraris are red hot these days. I believe Boxers have a bright
future ahead and should continue to climb in value. Feel free to email me with any questions or concerns.

This is what it's like to drive Magnum PI's Ferrari 308
Sat, 26 Oct 2013In the pantheon of 80s pop culture, few cars have such provenance as the Ferrari 308. Sure, vehicular icons like the DeLorean and Pontiac Trans Am (especially in time machine and KITT guise) made us swoon back in the day, but there's something about the bright red Italian that makes it stand out; perhaps it is the 308's performance credibility, at least when compared to other memorable cars of its ilk.
Our fondness for Magnum PI's Ferrari 308 is shared by Oscar Verdugo, who's featured in the video you'll see below. Brought to you by theAFICIONAUTO, this video highlights the bond between the men and women who own and love such so-called star cars, and it focuses on one particular 1981 Ferrari 308 GTSI.

Luxury carmakers make way more than just cars
Tue, Feb 24 2015Whether it's as simple as Ferrari offering model cars or as opulent as Bugatti with an $84,000-belt buckle, practically every automaker does more than just sell cars to keep their brands visible. The profits from these ventures might not be enough to keep the lights on, but in such a competitive industry, any extra cash is welcome. For the automakers that get licensing just right, there is a ton of profit to be made. According to a recent story examining the practice by The New York Times, Ferrari makes around $2.6 billion from merchandising each year, and General Motors tops that at $3.5 billion. Beyond just a profit center, merchandising can also protect an automaker's name. Take Hummer for example. The GM division shut down years ago, but it has continued to produce licensed cologne on sale around the world. "Because we still have the active fragrance, we're protecting the brand if we ever decide to bring it back," Gene Reamer, a GM licensing senior manager, told the Times. The whole piece is a fascinating look into this often ignored, but quite lucrative facet of the auto business. Read it for yourself, here.

Driver, track worker survive horrific Ferrari 458 crash at Suzuka
Tue, 14 May 2013Two people are lucky to be alive after a brutal crash during a recent Ferrari 458 Challenge event in Japan. Driver Shigeru Terajima lost control of his machine on the Suzuka Circuit start/finish straight, left the course at nearly 200 miles per hour and struck the inside wall where a corner worker was standing and monitoring the race. The 458 immediately disintegrated, sending bits of carbon fiber bodywork, suspension components, wheels and tires scattering into the infield and across the race course. The passenger cell spun through the air before coming to a stop on its roof.
Miraculously, both Terajima and the corner worker survived the incident. While the driver was transported to a local hospital in serious condition, he's expected to make a full recovery. The track worker, meanwhile, saw the incident coming and dove out of harm's way at the last possible moment, saving him from the brunt of the impact.
