INVESTMENT: Now's
the time to invest in a Ferrari and for several reasons, all of which make good
economic sense. Think about it. The financial world has never
settled since the recession. Stocks go up and down; the real estate
market is in a constant state of flux. Europe’s economy has had its fair share
of troubles. Yet Art and Ferraris are going only one direction and that’s
up. Ferraris are an international commodity. They're desired from Beverly
Hills to Beijing and bought, sold and shipped as such. They're
not making any more 328 Ferrari’s while they continue to mine for new gold and
diamonds. India, China and Russia, the emerging economies, will add nearly 3
billion consumers to the 1 billion current Ferrari consumer categories
(USA-Europe-Japan). As those economies strengthen there will be an ever
increasing demand for older/classic, Ferraris. Modern legislation means
there will never be cars that look like the older/classic sculpted Ferraris
designed by Pinin Farina. Ferraris will continue to be great machines,
but they will not be the cars built under Enzo Ferrari and designed by Pinin
Farina when Ferrari truly was “Ferrari.” Supply
and demand set price. Dino’s are pushing $300k to $400k. Pinin Farina,
the same designer who designed the Dino also designed the Ferrari 328. The Ferrari
328 is the Dino’s successor. In the last several years the once unloved Ferrari
330GT 2+2 has gone from $30k to more than $100k! Now is the time to buy
your quality older/classic Ferrari’s…while they are still affordable. The
Ferrari 328 is arguably one of the best looking Ferrari’s of the last 40 years. HISTORY: According
to the publication Sports Car Market, “In my opinion the 328 is the best
built, most reliable Ferrari ever. PERIOD. It is the product of a dozen years
of 308 experience. It was solidly constructed with a steel body welded to an
oval tube frame. It featured simple Bosch fuel injection, a go/no-go electronic
ignition system and an engine you serviced without removing from the car.
Most important, it was the last Ferrari that could be repaired by a good import
shop. The following generation of V8 Ferraris evolved into temples to high tech
gadgetry. When something goes wrong with one of these technological marvels,
you have to truck your car to an authorized Ferrari dealer—they’re the only
place that has the computer necessary to fix your car.” I am the 3rd owner of this beautiful
Ferrari. This vehicle has been meticulously maintained with all proper
paperwork and documentation. The vehicle has only been serviced by a Ferrari
Dealer and certified Ferrari mechanics. This car originated from Ferrari Kessler Auto Group in NYC in 1987. The first owner traded the car to Ferrari Miller
Motors of Greenwich, CT in 1994 (Kessler Auto Group left
NYC to become Ferrari Miller Motors) with 14,662 miles. The second owner
purchased the car from Ferrari Miller Motors in 1994. The third owner (me)
purchased the car in 2012 with 31,000 miles. DETAILS: Exterior is in flawless condition. The car was repainted by the second owner by a highly recommended exotic car auto body shop from Ferrari Miller Motors. Paint shows no scratches, dents, swirls marks or imperfections. You will not find a nicer paint job on a 328 and I consistently get compliments at car shows on how flawless this car looks! Interior is great condition for its age showing some aging and wear.
Carpets, dashboard, and roof liner are in pristine condition. Only flaw is a small quarter inch wear mark in
drivers side seat (see photo). Professionally installed Alpine CD/Audio System including 6.5” component
speaker system and amplifier. SERVICES: Full services completed by Ferrari Miller Motor Cars, Greenwich, CT (this car has two major services within its lifetime with the last major service being done less than 3,000 miles ago). 16,179 miles the following services
were completed: Dealer installed new clutch (when traded-in 1994) 24,430 miles the following services
were completed: 30,000
mile services including replacement of all belts, timing belt, tensioners, CAM
and DIST seals adjusted valves, spark plugs, all fluids, clutch adjustments,
etc. 29,687 miles the following services
were completed: 30,000 mile services including replacement of all belts, timing belt, tensioners, CAM and DIST seals adjusted valves, spark plugs, all fluids, clutch adjustments, etc.
31,200 miles the following services were completed: Replaced water pump and removed original working catalytic converter. Replaced with custom racing test pipe (have saved all original parts). The
vehicle is garage stored and used only on various weekends throughout the
summer season after the roads are cleaned from the winter sand/salt. Vehicle comes with all accessories, tools, manuals, covers and
service/history documentation. I
even have the original window sticker from 1987 and original dealer bill of
sale! The Ferrari 328 is the last real Ferrari designed by Pinin Farina and is
timeless in design. The 3.2-litre V8 engine is one of Ferrari's most reliably
motors with the lowest maintenance costs. If you’re looking for a stunning
classic Ferrari that has been well cared for, this is the vehicle for you! According
to Ferrari Market Letter Ferrari 328GTS's are going up in value significantly
and can only increase as they become rarer. Ferrari 328's are the continuation
of the bloodline started with the 246's then evolved into 308's and finally
vastly improved 328's. 328's are considered the most reliable and maintenance
free of Enzo era Ferrari's. Clean

Race Recap: 2014 Spanish Grand Prix is boom and bust [spoilers]
Mon, 12 May 2014The Spanish Grand Prix's 2.892-mile Circuit de Catalunya is considered a preview for the rest of the season, since it's a combination of long front straight and twisting middle sectors mimic sections from every other Formula One track to follow. After the long break following the flyaway races to open the season, teams and fans have also been looking forward to this race to see if anyone had a realistic hope of catching Mercedes AMG Petronas; Infiniti Red Bull Racing honcho Christian Horner boiled his team's outlook for the season down to the line, "We've got to [beat them in Spain] if we're going to make a championship of it."
If we take that as our starting point then the weekend began as a bust. Lewis Hamilton only just beat Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg for pole, the Brit's final effort getting him 0.178 seconds clear of the German. Daniel Ricciardo, proving Red Bull is at least the best of the rest, took third but did so more than a second behind Hamilton. Valtteri Bottas of Williams lined up fourth, almost 1.5 second behind and Romain Grosjean delivered overdue good news for Lotus by taking fifth on the grid, more than 1.7 seconds behind pole. Kimi Räikkönen in sixth outqualified his Ferrari teammate Fernando Alonso in seventh, but he couldn't be happy about it because the Ferraris were nearly two seconds behind, and Jenson Button in eighth in the McLaren was more than two second behind. Felipe Massa put the second Williams in ninth, and Sebastian Vettel overcame a terrible start to the weekend to make it into Q3, then didn't set a time when his gearbox failed, then got dropped five places to 15th on the grid when the gearbox had to be changed.
When the lights went out, then came the boom...
Ferrari to debut new twin-turbo California in the spring
Wed, 18 Dec 2013Ferrari hadn't made a turbocharged engine since the F40 ended its production cycle in 1992. But that all changed when it helped Maserati develop its new 3.8-liter twin-turbo V8. That turbo engine has so far been shoehorned into the Quattroporte, along with its 3.0-liter V6 cousin that also powers the smaller Ghibli. But soon it'll wear the Prancing Horse badge as further details emerge on the next-generation California.
Set to arrive in time for the spring (likely to be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March), the new California will reportedly ditch its naturally-aspirated V8 in favor of a reworked version of the Quattroporte's twin-turbo unit, which at 523 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque is already considerably more muscular than the current California's 483 hp and 372 lb-ft.
The new California will likely be closely based on the outgoing model, but benefit from revised aluminum sheetmetal and an updated cabin with a new infotainment system - two areas in which the current model has scored low marks.
Berger and Vettel swap F1 cars old and new at the Red Bull Ring
Mon, 16 Jun 2014This weekend the Formula One circus heads to Spielberg. No, not the Hollywood director, but the town in Austria that's home to the Österreichring. Subsequently known as the A1-Ring, these days it's called the Red Bull Ring, which makes this weekend's revived Austrian Grand Prix something of a home race for the defending champion Red Bull Racing team. But long before that it was the home race of the sixteen F1 drivers that call Austria their home - not the least of them Gerhard Berger.
The only Austrian driver to have won a grand prix (ten of them, all told) but not a championship, Berger was a fixture of F1 racing in the 1980s and 90s, spending much of his career driving for Ferrari. He later ran Scuderia Toro Rosso for three seasons, during which time Sebastian Vettel won his first (and still the team's only) grand prix. So with the Austrian Grand Prix back on the calendar for this weekend, the two highly accomplished drivers headed to the Red Bull Ring for a little juxtaposition.
Gerhard rolled in with the Ferrari F1/87-88C in which he won the 1988 Italian Grand Prix at Monza (which was, incidentally, the same race that Vettel won for STR twenty years later under Ferrari power), and Seb in his championship-winning RB8. Then they switched off, giving the four-time world champion his first chance to drive a grand prix racer with three pedals. If you can't believe that, it's also (as far as we can tell) the first time, despite years of neck-and-neck competition and retention of some of the best drivers on the grid, that a Red Bull or Toro Rosso driver has driven a Ferrari F1 car, and vice versa. See how it went down in the video below.
