2003 Ferrari 360 Spider Convertible 2-door 3.6l on 2040-cars
Howard Beach, New York, United States
|
You are bidding on a Red 2003 Ferrari Spider with F1 transmission. Car was fully serviced at 12,000 miles (see picture of repair order) as follows: 1. Full timing belt service. 2. Brake Flush and new brake fluid. 3. Coolant flush and replacement. 4. Oil change. 5. Convertible top serviced. 6. New front and rear brake pads. Tires have less than 3,000 miles and were replaced with original Pirellis (see picture of invoice). No bargain basement tires here. This ferrari is in outstanding condition and one of the finest 360s in circulation. The color combination is striking, When looking for a Ferrari as a buyer I look for the following: 1. Red (A ferrari has to be red). A Red Ferrari has the best resale value. 2. Daytona seats (inserts a big plus). 3. Modular wheels. 4. challenge grilles/grids front and rear and 5. Scuderia Ferrari Shields from the factory, not after market stick ons. Way to tell is the factory fenders are indented to accept the shields. This Ferrari has all the above options and more including: Red brake calipers, six CD changer, power seats (both), leather rear shelf/door mold, high power Hi-Fi with subwoofer, and all stiching in color. With this Ferrari included is also the luggage set and garment bag which you don't see very often. The only thing that is not included as shown on the window sticker is the battery (trickle) charger. However, the prewiring is there as shown on sticker. This car stickered at $201,294 (see picture). If you have been looking for a Ferrari and don't want to worry about maintenance for a long while, look no further. All you need to do with this car is to start it up and Go!!! As many have learned when it comes to exotics a "cheap deal" usually turns out to be the most expensive one. With the first repair, you'll wish you had purchased the more expensive, well maintained car. The car does have some chips, one small scratch (see picture) and a scrape underneath the front (most sports cars have this) from driveways. I have chosen not to repair it as depending where the new buyer lives it may not be feasable to repair as it will happen again, plus it's under the car. Another thing to keep in mind when shopping for a 360, is to make sure the taillights are not bubbled. If so, it means that there was alot of heat (engine) under the hood and that being the case I would take my money elsewhere. The taillights on this ferrari are as straight as when they left the factory. The Tubi exhaust (a must on a 360) was installed by Ferrari & Maserati of Orange County (see picture). A clutch snap was performed at 12,058 miles by Scottdale Ferrari-Maserati-Aston Martin which showed wear to be at 27.5%. This of course meant that the clutch is 72.5% good. With this car driven easy I can't see the wear being that much different. So in summary, this car has been maintained from day one and is well documented (see pics). If you can find a Red 360 as maintained as this one for cheaper, buy it!! I am not interested in any trades except a 2012 SLS with the right options (carbor fiber in and out, B&O, AMG performance Suspension). I will email additional requested pictures to serious buyers, but please do not lowball me as the sale of this car is not a must. I will take the car a reasonable distance for a PPI to a reputable Exotic car dealership (preferably Ferrari) or a reputable Independent specializing in Ferraris. I will not take it to your neighborhood mechanic. Good luck bidding.

McLaren, Red Bull and Ferrari call for unfreezing F1 engines
Mon, Dec 29 2014Formula One is a hugely expensive sport. Not only do you have enormous salaries and logistical expenses, as you would in any other sport, but each team also spends huge sums developing their own chassis from the ground up – and so too do the participating automakers in developing the engines. One of the ways the series organizers mitigate those costs is by freezing development. So once the new crop of V6 turbo hybrid powertrains were developed, that was it. But now three of the of the sport's leading teams are calling on the FIA to unfreeze engine development. Their reason? Unfair advantage. There's little question that Mercedes did the best job of developing its "power unit" to meet the new regulations that took effect at the beginning of this past season. That's how the Mercedes team won all but three of the grands prix this season and finished with at least one car on the podium at every single race. It's also a big part of how the teams that bought their engines from Mercedes this season managed to consistently outperform the other non-works-supported teams. That clear advantage is why Red Bull, Ferrari and now McLaren are calling for engine development to be unfrozen. Their argument is that, under the current locked-down status quo, their engine suppliers (Renault, Ferrari and Honda, respectively) cannot possibly catch up. So unless the FIA and Formula One Management want the next few seasons to be the kind of absolute blow-outs that this past season was, these leading teams argue, the powers that be are going to have to make some changes. For its part, Mercedes naturally counters that unfreezing engine development would send costs spiraling out of control. But then of course it stands to lose the most by re-opening engine development. If those three teams, however, closely intertwined as they are with the three other engine suppliers participating in next year's championship, manage to solicit enough support from the other customer teams and bring the matter to a vote, Mercedes may very well find itself out-numbered.

Five awesome Lego car creations

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.
Ferrari to be spun off from Fiat Chrysler
Wed, 29 Oct 2014The recently merged Fiat Chrysler Automobiles empire has ambitious plans for growth, and it's going to need some big bucks in its coffers in order to enact them. Part of that cash injection is coming from the floating of its IPO on the New York Stock Exchange, but now FCA has announced a further capital campaign to be based on the enormous asset that is Ferrari.
FCA's board of directors has just approved the separation of Ferrari from the rest of the group as a separate entity. Once that separation is complete, Ferrari will put 10 percent of its shares on the stock market "in the United States and possibly a European exchange" as well.
This isn't the first time that the idea of a Ferrari IPO has been raised. Sergio Marchionne, chief executive of Chrysler, Fiat and Ferrari (pictured above), first raised the idea four years ago. Former Ferrari chairman Luca di Montezemolo nixed the idea, but now that he's been discharged, it appears there's nothing to get in the way of Marchionne's desires.
