 I am selling my 512TR. Divorce forces the sale. The car is serviced. In December 2011, I had a complete 7year 36000 mile service performed. This was necessitated by a missed shift that required transmission disassembly and rebuild. I did many other items while the engine and transmission were out. I replaced the pinion gear with a much more robust pinion used in high performance/ racing applications. the exhaust was processed with "Jet Flow" which is porcelinizing the inner and aluminizing the outer aspects of the exhaust headers. this increases the efficiency of the extraction of heat. I will include photocopies of the work order and title. I have many more photos than can be shown on this ad. The car is set up well with adjustable spring seats and great shocks. The exhaust is by TUBI. TUBI Exhaust make all the difference in the world as far as power output and musical exhaust note..."think rocket launch or thunder". Pirelli Supercar Tires. The rears are from 2011 with maybe 1500 miles on them. The interior is red and black as can be seen in the pics. Everyone loves it. If you have never driven a 512TR but have driven a Testarossa....your in for a treat. The 512TR has so many little but meaningful improvements over the Testarossa. The car is much more drivable. The engine is internally improved. The 512TR engine is lowered to reduce lateral rolling mass. As can be seen in the pictures of the engine compartment, there are quite a bit of cosmetic accents in the way of bright polish and chrome. This will either blow you away, and you will just do whatever you have to do to get this car, or you won't like it... no in between . Everyone, including the local Ferrari club Pres., likes it a lot!

I would like to take a moment to discuss the title. This car has a clear California Title...now. In this car's past it was insured or should I say under-insured. The car had a side scraping shunt that did not involve the suspension or frame in any way. The left side panels were replaced. The car was repainted by a famous collectors personal painter to slightly BETTER THAN FACTORY NEW. The upshot of all this is that the car was salvaged to the insurance company because that's what happens if you under-insure your car. The insurance company just pays you off and takes the car whether you like it or not. Then the car was repaired as any Ferrari would be. I mention this in detail because when they say "Watch out, the car is a salvage" they are doing great harm to many and certainly this car. A salvage is important when a car is under water or in a fire or a clip job. NONE OF THESE APPLY HERE.

So if you want the best low mileage drivable (fast and safe) 512TR...look no further.

Fangio's Ferrari 290 MM should top $28 million at auction

Tue, Oct 20 2015

Of all the legendary pilots that have driven for the Scuderia over the years, few carry the kind of clout that did one Juan Manuel Fangio. A five-time world champion from another era, Fangio won a couple dozen grands prix and a fair few sports car races as well, driving for the likes of Mercedes, Alfa Romeo, Maserati, and of course Ferrari. What you see here is the car that Enzo's outfit built especially for Fangio. And now it's going up for auction, where it's anticipated – with good cause – to fetch big bucks. This 1956 Ferrari 290 MM – chassis number 0626 – was designed for Fangio to drive in the Mille Miglia. It would be the last time he would compete in the event, before being scrapped the following year. Victory in the thousand-mile race once again eluded the legendary Argentinian with a fourth-place finish, achieved single-handedly. But that wasn't the end of the story for 0626. It would go on to be raced by Phil Hill at the Nurburgring, by Alfonso de Portago at the Rouen Grand Prix, by Wolfgang von Trips at the start of his career with Ferrari, and won the Buenos Aires 1000 KM in 1957. Victories like those helped Ferrari clinch the manufacturer's title in both 1956 and '57, campaigns in which the 290 MM played an integral part. One (and arguably the best) of only four examples made, 0626 was never crashed during its decorated career. After its retirement from the Scuderia, it made its way through the hands of numerous collectors and racers on both sides of the Atlantic. It spent 34 years in the Mas du Clos collection of Pierre Bardinon before being acquired by its current owner, who in turn is now putting it up for auction. It will feature as part of RM Sotheby's upcoming Drive by Disruption sale in New York on December 10, where it is expected to sell for over $28 million. That would make it the most valuable car ever handled by the venerated auction house, outshining the 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 NART Spider it sold at Monterey in 2013 for $27.5 million. Of course it's not the only lot consigned for the Manhattan event. It'll be joined by a spectacular blue 1955 Ferrari 500 Mondial that's expected to fetch around $6 million, as well as a 1962 Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato (~$16m) and a Lamborghini Concept S (~$3m), to name just a few highlights on the horizon.

FCA is setting a five-year strategy: Here's how the last one played out

Thu, May 31 2018

We're slightly more than four years removed from Sergio Marchionne last five-year plan for FCA, a tell-all where the Italian-American automaker divulged its plans for the 2014 through 2018 model years. It was a grand affair, where Sergio told FCA investors that all was right in Auburn Hills, Alfa Romeo and Maserati were making comebacks, and the fifth-gen Dodge Viper received a mid-cycle refresh. You can read every last one of those past predictions right here. We're on our way to Europe to see Sergio's sequel, coming out Friday straight from FCA's Italian headquarters. (Bloomberg reports a plan to expand Jeep and Ram globally, combine Alfa Romeo and Maserati into a single division for an eventual spinoff, and downsizing Fiat and Chrysler. Also, EVs.) But before we arrive in Italy and find out exactly what Marchionne has planned for 2019 through 2023 as his last act as CEO, let's take a minute to tally up the results of his last term based on the same scoresheet we used in 2014. Now, we're only five months into 2018, so much of this — including vehicles like the Ram HD and Jeep Grand Wagoneer — could still debut this year. For those, we'll mark things TBD. We're not going to draw any conclusions or make any objectionable remarks. We're simply going to let the stats speak for themselves.
