2005 Ferrari 612
 
FOR SALE:   On offer is this beautiful 2005 Ferrari 612 Scaglietti.  In a sea of red cars, this Grigio Titanio over Nero 612 stands out and the color really shows off the beautiful lines of this 2+2 Scaglietti.  In fact, most fans consider Titanium/Black as the best color combination on the 612! This car is in excellent condition inside, outside, and mechanically.  It includes everything - complete tools, complete jack kit, tire inflator, factory silk covers, owner's manual, two keys, etc.  If you're serious about finding the right 612, this is the car for you.

The car has been properly serviced including the most recent "major" service (belts/cam seals/upper gaskets/fluids/filters/plugs/air conditioning/rear ball joints) performed over the past couple of weeks.  Also important to note is the fact that this car has no accident history, and we're fairly certain there hasn't been any paintwork done to the car aside from the front bumper (which we had done for stone chips, then re-covered in 3M clear bra to protect it).  Of course both the Carfax and Autocheck are clean.

Please read through the detailed description and have a look at the numerous photos we've posted.  If you have any questions about the car, don't hesitate to email.  If you're interested in seeing it in person, contact us to sort out a time to meet.  If you would like to have a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) done, please contact us and we can assist with those arrangements.
 
 
OWNERSHIP/SERVICE HISTORY:   Our research has determined this car to have had only two owners.
  • The first owner purchased the car brand new in fall 2005 and he kept it a through April of 2010 - covering only 8,087 miles in that time.  Service records indicate the car was properly serviced at Ferrari during the first owner's possession.
  • The second owner, a CEO of a major real estate consulting firm, purchased the car from an authorized Ferrari dealership in May 2010, and he kept it from then through April 2013.  Owner number two traveled approximately fourteen thousand miles during that three year period.  Of course the car was consistently serviced at Ferrari dealers during the second owner's possession and it was very well taken care of.

EXTERIOR:   The outside of this Titanium Ferrari 612 is in absolutely gorgeous condition and will definitely not disappoint.  Factory Scuderia Shields accent the beautiful sweep of the front fenders and neatly show the car's heritage. As previously mentioned, this car has never been in an accident and it doesn't appear to have had any paintwork outside of the front bumper being painted for stone chips (we had the work done).  Both doors, the hood, the trunk, and even the gas door all open/close and latch smoothly.  All of the gaps around the car are even, each panel fits as it would have the day it were new, and none of the bolts have "been turned".  There are some very faint swirl marks from towel drying, but there aren't any significant scratches on the car.  Of course there are no dings or dents anywhere either.  On the top edge of the rear bumper you will see a thin scrape (since touched up) from where golf clubs gave trouble getting out of the trunk, but that's about it.  This is a very nice looking car and we're sure you will agree the exterior is in excellent condition.

The lack of cosmetic imperfections is a sign of the prior owner's conscientiousness towards the car.  You can see in the photos that it includes a 3M clear bra - likely the reason there are so few chips on the leading edges.  The car was regularly detailed and kept very clean outside and underneath... another sign the past owners were careful custodians of this Ferrari.

 
INTERIOR:   This Ferrari 612 has black interior that is accented with silver trim, and it's in great condition.  Starting with the seats, you'll see they are in excellent shape and don't have the typical shrinking or pulling.  The seats are also free of heavy bolster damage, and show only the lightest wear.  Important to note is these seats haven't been re-dyed.  Move to the door panels and you will find the leather is tight and fits just as it should.  All of the glass is factory and without blemishes.  All of the switches, controls, vent surrounds, console inserts, etc are all dry to the touch and don't have the "stickies" issue so many Ferraris had.  On to the dash, and you'll see there is slight pulling of the leather where the BOSE center speaker rests.  I'm confident an upholstery shop could re-stretch it nicely.  In the dash you will see the prior owner updated the factory radio unit with one that offers a flip-up navigation screen.  This stereo sounds great with the BOSE speaker system in the car from the factory.

I attribute the great condition of the leather inside to the past owners' use of a reflective windshield screen while the car was parked, as well as being garaged most of it's life.  It's important to have these details that you can see so well covered, to be more assured that the underlying care has also been addressed.

 
MECHANICS:   Plain and Simple - this car runs superb.  The engine starts up without hesitation and it idles and revs smoothly and without issue.  We had the car checked out and our Ferrari mechanic inspecting the car spoke about how well it runs and drives.  There were no odd fault codes stored, and there are no issues with check engine lights or any other warning lights. *Note the photos showing the gauges in ready position and running - you can clearly see all of the lights operate properly and none of them illuminate while the car's running*  The suspension on this Ferrari is tight and there are no rattles or other noises on side streets or on the highway.  The brakes are good, and the parking brake works properly too.  The transmission shifts without issue up and down through the full gear range, and it does it cold or warm.  The clutch engages properly and grips well throughout the RPM range, just as it should.  In fact, the clutch measured 83% life remaining when it was scanned last week on the Leonardo Ferrari scanner!  The Pirelli tires are all in great shape and show even wear indicating the suspension is in good order.  They measure approximately 80% tread remaining, so you won't have a tire bill anytime soon.  Once again, the car was just serviced and had the belts, seals, upper gaskets, hoses, fluids, filters, plugs, etc replaced, so it needs nothing.  This car is turn key and ready to go.

 
IN CLOSING:   If there's any questions you have at this point, please email me and I'll get back to you ASAP.  We have priced this Ferrari very fairly, and I want to make sure we cover any and all questions you have about the car.  If it's your first Ferrari, please make sure you do some research on the owner's forums to understand what you need to look for when buying a 612 (or any other Ferrari).  Far to often people will try to buy a car that costs slightly less in hopes of getting a "deal"... but by the time they add up all of the expenses to make the car "right", they realize they should have just bought a nice car in the first place and probably saved quite a bit of money in the process.  Make sure you buy a nice clean Ferrari, and get one that has been well taken care of, and comes complete.  I'm confident that if you choose this one, it will meet or exceed all of your expectations.

Thanks for your time.

LaFerrari XX prototype pushed so hard that its suspension fails

Sun, 13 Jul 2014

Ferrari has a real challenge on its hands. It made the new LaFerrari hybrid hypercar so extreme already that it left little room to crank it up to 11 and turn it into an XX development prototype like it did with the Enzo and the 599 before it. So it's really going to have to push the envelop to take it that extra step.
That's what it has apparently set out to do with this LaFerrari prototype at Monza, where the Prancing Horse marque was spotted preparing the upcoming LaFerrari XX. In fact, testers ran the prototype so hard that they broke the car's right rear suspension. Which is bound to happen, we guess, when you try to find that extra bit of performance in a vehicle that's already one of the most capable ever devised, but only goes to show how much deeper Ferrari will have to dig to find that even sharper edge.
Either that or Ferrari's working on some sort of four-wheel steering system with automatic camber adjustment... See for yourself in the video below.

Five awesome Lego car creations

Thu, 23 Oct 2014

Lego cars are among our favorite toys. They're fun for play, and if built properly, great to display. With that in mind, we've crafted a list of some of the best creations we've seen. Some are on sale now, while others are merely the work of fanciful enthusiasts. There are even a couple that you definitely cannot buy (we'll explain).
Our choices are diverse, including everything from a diminutive 1969 Chevy Corvette to a fullsize Ferrari Formula One racecar. These are just five projects that caught our eye - there are many more out there - so if you don't see your favorite Lego car on the list (or if you have your own creation), please tell us about it, in Comments.

24 Hours of Le Mans live update part two

Sun, Jun 19 2016

We tasked surfing journalist Rory Parker to watch this year's live stream of the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans. What follows is an experiment to experience the world's greatest endurance race from the perspective of a motorsports novice. Parker lives in Hawaii and can hold his breath longer than he can go without swearing. For Part One, click here. Or you can skip ahead to Part Three here. I write about surfing for a living. If you can call it a living. Basically means I spend my days fucking around and my wife pays for everything. Because she's got a real job that pays well. Brings home the bacon. Very progressive arrangement. Super twenty first century. I run a surf website, beachgrit.com, with two other guys. It's a strange gig. More or less uncensored. Kind of popular. Very good at alienating advertisers. My behavior has cost us a few bucks. I'm terrible at self-censorship. Know there's a line out there, no idea where it lies. I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. For contests I do long rambling write ups. They rarely make much sense. Mainly just talk about my life, whatever random thoughts pop into my head. "Can you do something similar for Le Mans?" "Sure, but I know absolutely fuck-all about racing." "That's okay. Just write what you want." "Will do. But you're gonna need to edit my stuff. Probably censor it heavily." So here I am. I spent the last week trying to learn all I can about the sport of endurance racing. But there's only so much you can jam in your head. And I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. While I rambled things were happening. Tracy Krohn spun into the gravel on the Forza chicane. #89 is out of the race after an accident I missed. Pegasus racing hit the wall on the Porsche curves. Bashed up front end, in the garage getting fixed. Toyota and Porsche are swapping back and forth in the front three. Ford back in the lead in GTE Pro. #91 Porsche took a stone through the radiator, down two laps. Not good. The wife and I are one of those weird childless couples that spend way too much time caring for the needs of their pet. French bulldog, Mr Eugene Victor Debs. Great little guy. Spent the last four years training him to be obedient and friendly. Nice thing about dogs, when you're sick of dealing with them you can just lock 'em in another room for a few hours. You don't need to worry about paying for college.
