2005 Ferrari 612
 
FOR SALE:   On offer is this beautiful 2005 Ferrari 612 Scaglietti.  In a sea of red cars, this Grigio Titanio over Nero 612 stands out and the color really shows off the beautiful lines of this 2+2 Scaglietti.  In fact, most fans consider Titanium/Black as the best color combination on the 612! This car is in excellent condition inside, outside, and mechanically.  It includes everything - complete tools, complete jack kit, tire inflator, factory silk covers, owner's manual, two keys, etc.  If you're serious about finding the right 612, this is the car for you.

The car has been properly serviced including the most recent "major" service (belts/cam seals/upper gaskets/fluids/filters/plugs/air conditioning/rear ball joints) performed over the past couple of weeks.  Also important to note is the fact that this car has no accident history, and we're fairly certain there hasn't been any paintwork done to the car aside from the front bumper (which we had done for stone chips, then re-covered in 3M clear bra to protect it).  Of course both the Carfax and Autocheck are clean.

Please read through the detailed description and have a look at the numerous photos we've posted.  If you have any questions about the car, don't hesitate to email.  If you're interested in seeing it in person, contact us to sort out a time to meet.  If you would like to have a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) done, please contact us and we can assist with those arrangements.
 
 
OWNERSHIP/SERVICE HISTORY:   Our research has determined this car to have had only two owners.
  • The first owner purchased the car brand new in fall 2005 and he kept it a through April of 2010 - covering only 8,087 miles in that time.  Service records indicate the car was properly serviced at Ferrari during the first owner's possession.
  • The second owner, a CEO of a major real estate consulting firm, purchased the car from an authorized Ferrari dealership in May 2010, and he kept it from then through April 2013.  Owner number two traveled approximately fourteen thousand miles during that three year period.  Of course the car was consistently serviced at Ferrari dealers during the second owner's possession and it was very well taken care of.

EXTERIOR:   The outside of this Titanium Ferrari 612 is in absolutely gorgeous condition and will definitely not disappoint.  Factory Scuderia Shields accent the beautiful sweep of the front fenders and neatly show the car's heritage. As previously mentioned, this car has never been in an accident and it doesn't appear to have had any paintwork outside of the front bumper being painted for stone chips (we had the work done).  Both doors, the hood, the trunk, and even the gas door all open/close and latch smoothly.  All of the gaps around the car are even, each panel fits as it would have the day it were new, and none of the bolts have "been turned".  There are some very faint swirl marks from towel drying, but there aren't any significant scratches on the car.  Of course there are no dings or dents anywhere either.  On the top edge of the rear bumper you will see a thin scrape (since touched up) from where golf clubs gave trouble getting out of the trunk, but that's about it.  This is a very nice looking car and we're sure you will agree the exterior is in excellent condition.

The lack of cosmetic imperfections is a sign of the prior owner's conscientiousness towards the car.  You can see in the photos that it includes a 3M clear bra - likely the reason there are so few chips on the leading edges.  The car was regularly detailed and kept very clean outside and underneath... another sign the past owners were careful custodians of this Ferrari.

 
INTERIOR:   This Ferrari 612 has black interior that is accented with silver trim, and it's in great condition.  Starting with the seats, you'll see they are in excellent shape and don't have the typical shrinking or pulling.  The seats are also free of heavy bolster damage, and show only the lightest wear.  Important to note is these seats haven't been re-dyed.  Move to the door panels and you will find the leather is tight and fits just as it should.  All of the glass is factory and without blemishes.  All of the switches, controls, vent surrounds, console inserts, etc are all dry to the touch and don't have the "stickies" issue so many Ferraris had.  On to the dash, and you'll see there is slight pulling of the leather where the BOSE center speaker rests.  I'm confident an upholstery shop could re-stretch it nicely.  In the dash you will see the prior owner updated the factory radio unit with one that offers a flip-up navigation screen.  This stereo sounds great with the BOSE speaker system in the car from the factory.

I attribute the great condition of the leather inside to the past owners' use of a reflective windshield screen while the car was parked, as well as being garaged most of it's life.  It's important to have these details that you can see so well covered, to be more assured that the underlying care has also been addressed.

 
MECHANICS:   Plain and Simple - this car runs superb.  The engine starts up without hesitation and it idles and revs smoothly and without issue.  We had the car checked out and our Ferrari mechanic inspecting the car spoke about how well it runs and drives.  There were no odd fault codes stored, and there are no issues with check engine lights or any other warning lights. *Note the photos showing the gauges in ready position and running - you can clearly see all of the lights operate properly and none of them illuminate while the car's running*  The suspension on this Ferrari is tight and there are no rattles or other noises on side streets or on the highway.  The brakes are good, and the parking brake works properly too.  The transmission shifts without issue up and down through the full gear range, and it does it cold or warm.  The clutch engages properly and grips well throughout the RPM range, just as it should.  In fact, the clutch measured 83% life remaining when it was scanned last week on the Leonardo Ferrari scanner!  The Pirelli tires are all in great shape and show even wear indicating the suspension is in good order.  They measure approximately 80% tread remaining, so you won't have a tire bill anytime soon.  Once again, the car was just serviced and had the belts, seals, upper gaskets, hoses, fluids, filters, plugs, etc replaced, so it needs nothing.  This car is turn key and ready to go.

 
IN CLOSING:   If there's any questions you have at this point, please email me and I'll get back to you ASAP.  We have priced this Ferrari very fairly, and I want to make sure we cover any and all questions you have about the car.  If it's your first Ferrari, please make sure you do some research on the owner's forums to understand what you need to look for when buying a 612 (or any other Ferrari).  Far to often people will try to buy a car that costs slightly less in hopes of getting a "deal"... but by the time they add up all of the expenses to make the car "right", they realize they should have just bought a nice car in the first place and probably saved quite a bit of money in the process.  Make sure you buy a nice clean Ferrari, and get one that has been well taken care of, and comes complete.  I'm confident that if you choose this one, it will meet or exceed all of your expectations.

Thanks for your time.

NHTSA fines Ferrari $3.5 million for missing reports

Fri, 31 Oct 2014

Ferrari will pay a $3.5 million penalty for family to comply with oversight requirements set forth by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The federal agency that oversees road safety in the United States announced Friday morning that Ferrari had not submitted early warning reports for the past three years. These reports help the agency identify potential or existing safety threats.
In the wake of the rolling recalls for defective General Motors ignition switches, there has been considerable scrutiny of NHTSA's handling - or mishandling - of these early warning reports. Friday's fine is an indication the agency is taking its enforcement mandates more seriously, albeit against a manufacturer that has no large-scale presence on American roads.

Race Recap: 2015 Hungarian Grand Prix is Magyar for 'What a race!'

Mon, Jul 27 2015

Every driver on the Formula 1 grid dreams of taking home the silverware, but only one driver each year can do it. Barring disaster in 2015 it looks like it's going to be Lewis Hamilton. The Brit has been so dominating at the front of the grid on Saturday, we can't see how he'll miss out on winning the second annual FIA Pole Position Trophy. That's the accolade introduced last season in another manufactured attempt to give drivers something to work for on Saturday, since the FIA felt leading into the first corner didn't have the pull it used to. Hamilton took his ninth pole of the season in Hungary for Mercedes-AMG Petronas with a crushing lap that put him almost six tenths ahead of his teammate Nico Rosberg in second. All Hamilton needs is one more spot at the top of the grid this season, and he's the Pole Position trophy winner. Thrilling stuff. Behind Rosberg the gaps stayed smaller, Sebastian Vettel in the Ferrari a little more than a tenth behind Rosberg, Daniel Ricciardo in the Infiniti Red Bull Racing less than four one-hundredths behind Vettel. We feel almost as vexed watching Kimi Raikkonen as he feels driving – he's finally got a good Ferrari, now he can't get a good weekend. The front wing broke on his car in Free Practice 1, then a water leak in Free Practice 3 robbed him of setup time on the soft tire. He lines up in fifth about two tenths behind Ricciardo. The slow, tight Hungaroring didn't agree with the Williams chassis, Valtteri Bottas the first of the Grove team drivers in sixth, his teammate Felipe Massa two places back. Between them is Daniil Kvyat in the second Red Bull in seventh. Teenager Max Verstappen put in a good showing in the Toro Rosso to grab ninth, while Romain Grosjean in a wriggling, squishy, sliding Lotus classified his appearance in Q3 at all as "a miracle." As for the race that followed, we don't expect to see another like it for a long time – it was the real thrilling stuff, one shock after another. The drama began after the first parade lap, when Felipe Massa lined up out of position and the start was aborted. The drivers did another parade lap, then lined up with everyone in place. Mercedes got swamped as soon as the lights went out. Vettel ran around both of them and led the race into the first turn, Raikkonen had come from fifth to third by Turn 1, then got the inside line on Rosberg through Turn 2 to take second place.

Chris Harris enjoys the song of a Ferrari 212

Fri, May 8 2015

We often see Chris Harris sliding around in the modern elite of supercars, but he eschews every bit of the cutting edge in his latest clip for the opportunity to get behind the wheel of an absolute classic. Harris drives a 1952 Ferrari 212 Barchetta with a body by Touring, and the Italian hills come alive with the sound of this little car's beautiful music. The V12 engine that's nestled under the Barchetta's hood might be short on displacement, but this thing can absolutely roar. It thunders down the road under hard acceleration and then makes a symphony of pops and snaps as the driver downshifts into a corner. You can own this Ferrari, too. RM Auctions is selling it, but the reserve is somewhere between 5 million and 7 million euros ($5.6 million - $7.9 million). Given Harris' proclivity to slide just about anything he drives, do you think he drifts this Barchetta? Watch the video to find out, and it's probably worth turning up the speakers, too.
