Hello and thank you for looking at my Ferrari. I want
to provide you with as much information about this vehicle as possible. If
there is anything that you would like to know that is not listed here, please
let me know, and I will respond to your questions.
I am the third owner of this vehicle. The first was from Connecticut and purchased the car from Miller Motorcars in Greenwich Connecticut. It was purchased on August 26, of 1993. He traded it in to the same dealer at the end of 2001. It was then purchased by the second owner, a fellow from Annapolis, MD, at the end February of 2002. At the time of transfer, the vehicle had 4,339 miles on it. I purchased it from the second owner in 2010, at which time the vehicle had just over 8200 miles on it. The car has always been stored inside. It has been serviced at 2 Ferrari dealerships, Miller Motorcars in Greenwich Connecticut, Ferrari of Washington, and by Competizione in Gaithersburg, MD. I had Competizione do a pre-purchase inspection and subsequent major service. I have all service records for the car. The last major was extensive. The major items were timing belt, Hill bearings, OEM water pump, Tubi Evo stainless exhaust, Hyper-flow catalytic converters, silicon hose set, new tires all around, and much more. The major service is paper and photo documented. The front air dam was pulled and repainted due to some scraps. Skid plates were added. During this time all the plastic interior parts where removed and refinished by Sticky-No-More. All total more than $20K was invested. Since this work, the car has been driven about 2,000 miles. This car needs nothing and is near museum quality. It has a few after market items, such as a steering wheel
that can easily be return to stock, I have the original parts. The steering wheel was changed and a hub
extension added to make the car more suitable to its current, quite tall,
driver.
Tires are new and there is no curb rash on any of the rims, period! Condition is subjective and of opinion. Please feel free to
inspect the photos and come and see the car yourself. That said I am in no hurry to sell it. I'm not leaving for a while (still preparing the boat). This is probable the best example of a 348 you will find. I believe this car will only grow in value over the years. Yes, you can find cheaper ones, but to get one in this condition and with such low miles is difficult. You get what you pay for and I think this car is fairly priced. Please don't waist my time with low ball offers, and please no tire kickers looking for a joy ride. Again to repeat, this car is clean, clean, clean. The engine bay is beautiful. It still has the insulation in place on the under side of rear deck engine hatch. Often on 348s it is missing or falling apart. The interior is a 10 and the leather is gorgeous, including the driver seat. That's hard to find. Of all the 348s, the 1994/95 Spiders are the ones to own. If you are considering the 348, you need to see this one. Yes you can find cheaper, and and then spend twenty grand getting it up to the standard of this car, but then you'd most likely still have a car with more miles. This car, with such low miles, can be bought, enjoy for some years, and you'd still have a high value low mileage car to sell.
All parts removed from the car, such as exhaust, cats,
steering wheel and such, should you wish to return the car to fully stock. The following is some general information for those not familiar with the 348 -From the my348 website - "You've got to drive this car! The Ferrari 348 Spider elicits waves, honks, stares, and constant calls from nearby motorists and pedestrians alike. Ordinary drivers morph into paparazzi, turning their digital cameras and video recorders on to film your every move as you drive by with the top down." The Ferrari 348 is a mid-engine, rear wheel drive, V8-powered 2-seat sports car. It replaced the 328 in 1989 and was produced through 1995. More than 8,000 348s were produced and sold worldwide. Only 556 Spiders were imported to the U.S. The car's straked side air intakes give it a Testarossa look (because of this it is sometimes considered a kid brother to the Testarossa). The 348 features a naturally aspirated 3.4 liter version of the quad-cam, 4-valve per cylinder V8 engine which was originally found in the 288 GTO supercar. In the early models the engine produced 300 hp (224 kW). It sits longitudinally with a transverse gearbox, like the Mondial T with which the 348 shares many components. This was a major switch for Ferrari, with most previous small Ferraris using a transverse engine with longitudinal transmission All 348s were shipped with dual-computer, double-redundant Anti-Lock Braking systems. All 348s were shipped with on-board self-diagnosing Air Conditioning and heating systems. U.S. 348s have functioning on-board OBDI engine management systems. Similar to the Testarossa but departing from the BB 512 and 308/328, the oil and coolant radiators were relocated from the nose to the sides, widening the waist of the car substantially, but making the cabin much easier to cool, since hoses routing warm water no longer ran underneath the cabin as in the older front-radiator cars. All Ferrari 348s use racing "dry-sump" oil systems to prevent oil starvation at high speeds and in hard corners. The oil level can only be checked (accurately) on the dip-stick when the motor is running due to this setup. Likewise, all 348s have independent, corner-adjustable ride/height/weight adjustment abilities built into each suspension, as well as a removable rear sub-frame to speed up the removal of the engine for maintenance. The Spider version came out in 1993. The 348s had many improvements from 1993 onward, featuring subtle styling changes and more power, this time producing 312 bhp (U.S) and 320 hp (Euro) from the same 3.4 liter engine (different exhaust). The lower body was now body-colored instead of black and the rear track was one inch wider due to the addition of spacers. The suspension geometry was revised which greatly enhanced its super-car-level handling, ride, and body control. The alternator was upgraded and the battery moved to a better location to improve balance. I believe the 348 Spider hits the sweet spot in the Ferrari line up. It has pretty much bottomed out in its deprecation curve, and has begun to appreciate. As with all Ferraris, condition, good maintenance records, mileage, and a well documented history make all the difference in price. 348 Spider -

Take a video tour of the Ferrari F12 TdF's V12 engine
Fri, Oct 16 2015Ferrari's transformation of the F12 Berlinetta from a handsome GT into a road-devouring monster – the F12 TdF – seems impressive. To make sure the engine has a wail to match the threatening exterior, the Italians massaged the 6.3-liter V12 up to 769 horsepower and 520 pound-feet of torque. It now redlines at a screaming 8,900 rpm, and propels the coupe to 62 miles per hour in just 2.9 seconds. This new video takes viewers inside the upgraded mill to illustrate how these improvements were made. Among the host of changes, the intake receives variable-geometry intake trumpets. Even in his computer-animated video, they're amazing to watch in action. Ferrari has some other tricks too, though. Let the company show you the benefits of all the tweaks in this clip.
Why this 1964 Ferrari 250 GTO will sell for at least $45 million
Mon, Jul 30 2018A 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO by Scaglietti will be up for auction by RM Sotheby's in Monterey next month. Actually, perhaps "the" 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO would be more appropriate, because the list of its accomplishments, claims to fame and reasons for being extremely expensive are probably more than the rest. And by "rest," we mean 36. And by "extremely expensive" we mean an expected sale price of between $45 million and $60 million. View 47 Photos If you want to read in vivid detail about the car in question, RM Sotheby's provides a lengthy tale of "the world's most important, desirable, and legendary motor car." Trying to regurgitate it here really wouldn't do it justice. Instead, here are some of the bullet points. No. 3 of 36 Ferrari GTOs built. Known as 3413. Considered by experts to be one of the most authentic and original of those 36, all of which survive One of only 4 of those 36 to receive upgraded at the time with Series II GTO/64 body work by Scaglietti. It is more aggressive in appearance, more aerodynamic and many say attractive Won the 1962 Italian GT Championship First in class at the 1963 Targa Florio in its original body work First in class at the 1964 Targa Florio in the Series II body work you see today, as detailed in the Sotheby's story Won its class in the 1964 Targa Florio, helping Ferrari win the 1964 International Championship for GT Manufacturers More than 15 class and overall wins from 1962 to 1965 Last purchased in 2000 for $7 million – There's a reason German banks are suggesting adding a classic car to your investment mix. 3413 has actually been driven during that time, making appearances at countless classic events and vintage races Purchase includes exclusive access to some of the world's most prestigious events and rallies, including the GTO club and tours – Value! Currently fitted with a 250 GT engine block built to GTO specification to allow the car to be driven to those countless classic events and vintages races – The original block has been removed for preservation and comes with the car. This Ferrari's expected price of between $45 million and $60 million would make it the most valuable car ever put up for auction. A 1963 250 GTO sold for $70 million in a private sale. Another sold at auction in 2013 for $52 million, so the upper level of 3413's sale estimate definitely seems feasible. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Get a load of these crazy European Nimrods
Wed, 05 Mar 2014I've been attending the Geneva Motor Show for the better part of a decade, and it's become my favorite stop on the entire show circuit, in large part because of all the exotic automakers, coachbuilders and green startups. I also love the Palexpo's consistently mind-bending displays of tuners, who typically work exclusively on six-figure automobiles. Some offer subtle improvements and personalization programs, but most seem hellbent on being more outlandish and bizarre than the next, a room full of millionaire class clowns. More often than not, I spy something and think to myself "What kind of Nimrod would do that to a perfectly good ____ ?" This year, that rhetorical question is in fact a self-answering one.
The jokes, they write themselves.
But seriously, if you're wondering who would take a perfectly lovely Ferrari 458 Italia or a Lamborghini Aventador and affix a wild body kit of dubious aerodynamic and aesthetic merit at great extra cost (both to the car's MSRP and to its assuredly grenaded resale value), the answer could very well be Nimrod Elite Tuning, a newer high-end restyling house out of Slovakia. That last locational tidbit might also explain the company's unusual name, which is likely a nod to a mighty Biblical hunter (descendant of Ham and a king of Shinar, Nimrod is mentioned in Genesis and Chronicles) and not meant to be taken as a synonym for "idiot" or "moron."
