Up for auction is:

1983 Ferrari 308 GTS Quattrovalvole USA model.

Condition: It is all original. It is in immaculate condition and runs great. It just passed smog without any issues.

History: It is a California car and has had 3 owners. It was purchased at Newport Imports in Newport Beach CA on July 27, 1983. The first owner, from Westlake Village in the Northern Los Angeles area, owned it until 1994. The car spent the next 11 years in Orinda, CA in the San Francisco Bay Area, until it was purchased by its current owner in 2005. The third owner kept the vehicle garaged in his home in San Francisco.

Odometer disclosure: The odometer malfunctioned for about 5 years and did not record miles driven (a common problem on these cars according to Patrick Ottis company- one of the top Ferrari experts I'm the US.). The car was driven very little and so the recorded mileage is probably only off from the true mileage by about 5,000 miles.

Maintenance: For the last 10+ years the case has been maintained by Patrick Ottis Company in Berkeley. Patrick is considered one of the top Ferrari mechanics in the US. The last major engine out service (cam belt etc.) was performed in 2007 at a cost of $8500 (see photo of last page of multi page receipt showing total repair cost). The tires are in very good condition and the battery is a couple weeks old.

Stereo: It has a high end Sony CD player, Linear amps, and ADS speakers.

What's included: Included are all the original manuals and books, tools, parts manual, and car cover.

Info for viewing in person: The car is available for viewing in Los Altos, CA. Interested parties are welcome to have it inspected by a Ferrari mechanic prior to purchase.

Questions: Feel free to call Ismael at 4zero83 7three 6one nine 5 with any questions.

1972 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona is viceless in Miami Scottsdale at Barrett-Jackson

Sat, 19 Jan 2013

We love the Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona. It's most definitely a classic, made famous in part by its appearance as Don Johnson's favored ride in the classic '80s television series Miami Vice... but we won't hold that against it.
The specific example you see above just crossed the block at the 2013 Barrett-Jackson extravaganza in Scottsdale, and it cleared a cool $495,000 after the buyer's commission was factored in. The 1972 Daytona features a sweet-sounding V12 engine mated to a five-speed manual gearbox.
Plus, it's brown, with a tan interior. Stunning. Check it out in our high-res image gallery above, and be sure to read through its official auction description below.

Why all of this year's F1 noses are so ugly [w/video]

Fri, 31 Jan 2014

If you're a serious fan of Formula One, you already know all about The Great Nosecone Conundrum of 2014. Those given to parsing each year's F1 regulations predicted the strong possibility of the so-called "anteater" noses as far back as early December 2013. Highly suggestive visual evidence first came after Caterham's crash test in early January, with further proof coming as soon as Williams showed a rendering of the FW36 challenger for this year's championship. That car earned a name that wasn't nearly so kind as "anteater."
Casual followers of the sport - or anyone who gets the feed from this site - probably don't know what's happening, except to wonder why the current year's F1 cars are led by appendages that would make Cyrano de Bergerac feel a whole lot better about himself.
The short answer to the question of ugsome F1 noses is "FIA regulations and safety." The reason there are various kinds of ugsome noses is simpler: engineers. The same boffins who have given us advances including carbon fiber monocoques, six-wheeled cars, double diffusers and Drag Reduction Systems are bred to do everything in their power to exploit every possible freedom in the regulations to make the cars they're building go faster - the caveat being that those advances have to work within the overall philosophy of the whole car.
