This cars story:
I bought it with about 24,000 miles in the fall of 2012 from the inventor of LineX spray in bed liners and picked it up from his warehouse outside Atlanta. He is a very wealthy man who has his own Lemans 24 hour race team, service/mechanic crew, race cars (Ferrari's and Porsche's), along with an excellent collection of other automobiles, from Hemi Road Runners, to Lancia Rally cars and more.
The car was fully serviced (major engine out service) by his mechanics for me before I picked it up, and at about 26,000 miles I had it inspected at my local Ferrari mechanic at World Class Auto, who checked everything over, verified the previous service (in case the pictures I have of the car with the engine removed weren't proof enough), and performed a tune up for me, with an oil change, plugs, fuel mapping upgrades, etc...
The ride:
In a word, AMAZING. This car blew my 328GTS away in all aspects, with awesome acceleration, handling, braking, comfort, visibility, and you could argue style as well!
How does she stack up against today's Ferrari's?
Well we brought her to our South Carolina Ferrari Club of America meeting, competed in the Rally to Highlands, and took a VERY respectable third place out of a dozen competitors, beating out guys who were driving: 458 Italia, F430, 360, 328GTS, and more. So don't think that this 24 year old collectible car is just for show, she can hang with the absolute best of them, her 12 cylinder engine provides massive amounts of torque down low, she has the racing exhaust to boost output to nearly 420HP, and the only limiting factor is usually the size of your cojones.
Attention:
Be ready for it. I'm a single 26 year old, and those prius driving losers who go downtown and take a puppy with them to pick up chicks are always left cleaning poop off the sidewalk as I drive off with the girls of their dreams.
That Asian chick in a couple of the photos modeled for Hollister, now as you can see, she models for me free of charge ;)
No joke, the first time I took this car downtown I came home about 5 minutes later with two girls sitting on top of each other in the passenger seat. Road tripping? I've cruised to Charlotte, into the mountains, and down to the ocean in this car, it's comfortable, and gets almost 20mpg when cruising at low rpm in top gear on the highway (say 90-95 mph-ish, most other times, expect roughly 15-17mpg, if you keep track of silly things like that), and your basically the star of the road the entire drive.
People can't help but stare and smile, thumbs up seem to come at you from all angles, and hotel valets just let you park right in front.
Reason for selling:
I'm moving myself, my best friend/employee, and my largest company back to Las Vegas NV before the end of the year, and I've just got way too many toys. Moving them all would be a huge pain in the butt, and I just don't have the time, or space at the moment.
I'm also selling several of my Ducati motorcycles, and I just sold my other Ferrari, a 328GTS with a 288GTO conversion kit to an existing Ferrari owner who was quite happy with the car he received from me (you've got nothing to worry about).
Condition:
Car is used, but in excellent condition, serviced properly and an excellent driver. You may find a very very small stone chip, or scratch (tiny if any) somewhere on the car, but like I said, it's in excellent condition.
Paint I would rate at 90%. I mean it looks great, and nobody has ever said anything to the contrary about it, but if you look really really closely, I found one run in the paint, and one imperfection down by the bottom of the door (it probably contacted something like a high curb lightly when the door was opening, as there are no dents).
There are no tears in the original leather seats, the original Ferrari floormats look like as though they are brand new, and everything seems to work perfectly, from the electronically adjustable mirrors, to the fog lights, driving lights, high beams, windshield wipers, parking brake, etc... The only possible problem could be considered the AC, which blows strong, but could use a re-charge (to get it colder).
Shipping, is obviously the buyers responsibility, but it's less expensive than you may have thought, feel free to check Montway auto shippers (they usually have the best rates and times - only cost $750 to ship my last Ferrari to Boston, and it was picked up 1 day after I called to schedule, and delivered 2 days after pick up!).
However, this car is GREAT!!! You can simply fly into GSP (greenville spartanburg airport), I'll pick you up you can drive her home to any part of this country problem free. Enjoy the road trip on the way home, it will be fun.

Ferrari stock sale pegged for October, or later
Sat, Jun 6 2015The Ferrari IPO is still coming, but it won't be before Columbus Day (Monday, October 12, that is), according to Fiat Chrysler Automobiles CEO Sergio Marchionne. The outspoken exec is blaming tax reasons for the fourth-quarter date, according to a report from Reuters. Marchionne said a full year needed to pass between FCA's October 13, 2014 Wall Street debut and any additional listing. This isn't the first delay in the Ferrari IPO. FCA was originally supposed to make a 10-percent offering of Ferrari during second or third quarter of 2015, before officially pushing things back to the third quarter of this year. Now, it's unclear if Ferrari will even go public before the dawn of 2016.

Ferrari chief staying on to launch new models in October
Tue, 09 Sep 2014Luca di Montezemolo has been running Ferrari since 1991. That's a whopping 23 years already, and having been born the same year that Ferrari was founded, Montezemolo is now 67 years old. But don't expect him to be stepping down any time soon.
Addressing the rampant rumors circulating the paddock at Monza this weekend, the hereditary Marquis of Montezemolo (pictured above at the unveiling of the 458 Speciale in Frankfurt last year) insisted that he is not about to leave Ferrari. Not before 2017, anyway, having signed as recently as this past March to stay on another three years. (After that, it's anyone's guess, with some suggesting that controversial Fiat scion Lapo Elkann could take his place.) But in dismissing the rumors, the affable and long-serving Ferrari chairman did reveal some new product plans.
First of all, according to racing site Autosport.com, Luca confirmed that the Prancing Horse marque "will present a fantastic new car" at the Paris Motor Show next month, widely expected to be a new variant of the 458: either the new Speciale Spider or the turbocharged 458 M. While he was at it, though, Montezemolo also revealed a new limited edition model to be presented in California.
EVO dubs Ferrari 458 Speciale its Car of the Year
Wed, Dec 3 2014While some publications are concerned with finding the best car or truck for the average buyer and slapping a ribbon on it, or (in our case) identifying the best new automotive technology of the year, across the pond our compatriots at Evo are more single-minded in their approach. Every year, the British car mag awards its Car of the Year to its top new performance automobile on the market. And this year, they've picked the Ferrari 458 Speciale. The stripped-out supercar from Maranello beat out some heady competition. Second place went to the Jaguar F-Type R, followed by the Porsche Cayman GTS, VW Golf R, Renaultsport Megane 275 Trophy-R, BMW i8, McLaren 650S Spider, Aston Martin Vanquish, BMW M3 and, last but not least, the Audi S1. It was only the second time a Ferrari won the eCOTY award, after the 599 GTB Fiorano took top honors in 2006. Precedent suggests the magazine typically hands the award to a version of the Porsche 911 – like the GT3 that won last year, preceded by other Elfens in 2011, 2010, 2007, 2004, 2003, 2000, 1999 and 1998 (when the award was inaugurated). Why is the latest 458 derivative so... Speciale? Watch this video to find out.
