Ferrari 456 Gt Six Speed on 2040-cars
Poway, California, United States
SUPER RARE FERRARI 456 V12 WITH MANUAL SIX SPEED GEARBOX! WHAT'S A FRONT-ENGINED V12 SIX SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION CAR WORTH COMPARED TO AN AUTOMATIC / PADDLE SHIFT CAR? WELL ACCORDING TO THE MARKET THIS PAST WEEK....A LOT! A 599 WITH A SIX SPEED MANUAL (yes it is slower 0-60) JUST SOLD FOR FOUR TIMES THE VALUE OF REGULAR 599!!! $680,000! (SEE PHOTO BELOW) Ferrari does not make a manual transmission car anymore and has not made a manual transmission V12 car for years now. While the 550 has a manual....they all have manual gearboxes so a 550 with stick is not rare. On the other hand most 456 Ferraris are automatic. The market on rare stick shift front engined V12 Ferrari is only going to go up. The 456 is a front engine, rear transaxle, Daytona-inspired supercar and an important car in the history of Ferrari. (It even has Daytona hood scoops and a rear end that is reminiscent of the legendary Daytona.) This may be the prettiest 456 out there as it features arguably the best color combination. Everyone who sees the car, passersby, other motorists, etc., comments on how beautiful the color is. Monaco blue over a royal / navy blue interior (Blu 4307, I believe). Even the headliner in this car is leather! As are the door panels, front and rear seats, dash, etc. This was Ferraris top of the line / most expensive car and it shows. This is a very rare manual six speed transmission Ferrari 456. It's believed just 317 manual transmission 456 Ferraris were imported to the United States. Compared to today's mass produced Ferraris, the 456 was produced in very limited numbers and hand built. Ferrari no longer offers a front engined V12 with a classic manual shifting shift gate. The 456/550 were the last models made by Ferrari that offered a stick in any real numbers and collectors agree these cars will be and are presently appreciating in value. This Ferrari was specially ordered with an extremely rare and beautiful Monaco metallic blue exterior and a matching blue interior. This Ferrari looks like a show car and is absolutely stunning. Ferrari experts and journalists compare the 456 to the classic Daytona, both in performance and styling proportions. The 456 with its classic Ferrari shift gate is actually faster than the Daytona, it also rides comfortably and was made for high speed cruising. Yet when you get in the car it magically shrinks around you and feels like luxurious sports car, even more so than the 550. (The 456 is only a tad longer than the 550 yet has usable backseats and a good sized trunk. I believe the slightly shorter nose of the 456 makes it an easier car to maneuver.) The 456 is considered a work of art while the car that came after it, the 612, is regarded as dis-proportioned. This Ferrari just underwent a major service approximately (less than) 300 miles ago. It received new timing belts, cam seals, fuel filter, air filters, oil change, spark plugs, thermostat, catalyst ECU and a rebuilt water pump. The new owner should now have years of driving pleasure ahead! In addition, new tires have been fitted to the OEM Ferrari wheels. Also included is a set of $6,500 high performance and super lightweight 19" HRE 3-piece wheels with Pirelli tires. The seats were just treated with Maguire's leather conditioner. The nose of the car is protected by the so an "invisible bra", the clear paint protection film.

Pranked angry Ferrari owner says urine trouble now, man!
Tue, 16 Apr 2013A good rule to live by is that you should never mess with another man's car, but Roman Atwood learned that you probably shouldn't even pretend with another man's ride... especially when it's a Ferrari 360 Modena. The internet prankster was trying to perform a little handicap parking spot justice by acting as if he were urinating on an Italian supercar that he felt was illegally parked.
Needless to say, the owner of the car was not amused by Atwood's antics, proceeding to shove him, shout obscenities and even yell, "I could buy your whole family." Both men seem like real class acts. Check out the prank-gone-wrong below.
Ferrari launches upgraded 458 Challenge Evoluzione
Wed, 13 Nov 2013Want to drive an eight-cylinder, mid-engined Ferrari? Assuming you can get your lucky little hands on one, you can drive a 458 Italia, 458 Spider or new 458 Speciale on the street. But the real action is where the road ends and the racetrack begins. Ferrari's Corse Clienti division offers versions for GT2 and GT3 racing, for Grand-Am (likely to be revised for the new United SportsCar Championship), and, of course, for its own Challenge racing series.
It's the latter version that Ferrari revealed it was upgrading last week, and now it's made its debut at the tail end of the rain-soaked Finali Mondiali event at Mugello. Although Ferrari only released limited details and just the one new photo, the new 458 Challenge Evoluzione upgrades on its predecessor as promised with obvious aerodynamic enhancements.
Those upgrades are "aimed at making the car even more driveable" for the customer racers who take part in the series, and seem to bridge the gap (at least visually) between the previous 458 Challenge and the more extreme racing versions that have to contend with more competition than its own kind. The upgrades are being rolled out as a kit that will be obligatory in the various Challenge series that will kick off around the world next year.
Ferrari California T showcases classic style in Shanghai
Mon, Apr 20 2015Ferrari may not have anything new to showcase this year (or at least nothing we haven't seen before) at the largest auto show in one of its largest markets, but it did roll into Shanghai with a rather stunning take on the California T. This drop-top Prancing Horse has been customized through the company's Tailor Made personalization program, taking its cues from the 1950s and early '60s. The bodywork has been done up in Grigio Ingrid – the same color Roberto Rossellini chose for Ingrid Bergman's 1954 Ferrari 375 MM. The interior, meanwhile, features a rather stunning swath of reddish-brown leather with waxed edges inspired by Jackie Kennedy, offset by black Alcantara, a matte grey metallic dashboard and virgin wool carpeting. The details cast what otherwise might not be Maranello's most beautiful model in a rather gorgeous light, and just goes to show the extent of the customization options available to the company's discerning clientele.

This California T was created especially for the Chinese auto show to illustrate how Ferrari's "Tailor Made" program allows a client to commission a car according to his or her wishes. Since the 1950s, the Ferrari California series has embodied elegance, sportiness and versatility. In keeping with this spirit, Ferrari's design team chose to style this California T with timelesssophistication. For inspiration, the designers looked to two great icons of style, the actress Ingrid Bergman, known for her natural beauty and effortless chic, and the Kennedy familyas personified by the graceful Jacqueline Kennedy. Finished indemure "Grigio Ingrid" a color named for the unforgettable Ingrid Bergman who chose this very shade of grey for the Ferrari 375 MM Roberto Rossellini gave her in 1954, this California T has a touch of understatement.The interiors on the other hand are rich in materials and detail, taking their cues from the worlds of interior and furniture design as well as luxury goods.In particular the seats, in reddish brown, velvety"count prestige" leather, are a variation on theKennedee chair by Jean Marie Massaud, a design that in turn was influenced by the style of America's "former first family" the Kennedys.
