We are pleased to offer 1986 Euro model 328 GTS s/n 59649, well documented from new back to the selling dealer and
first owner, from new in Rosso Corsa FER 300/6 with cream leather and currently being treated to a 30k cam-belt
service. S/n 59649 was sold new by Auto Becker, the authorized Ferrari dealer for Düsseldorf, Germany before
coming to the US, and has a well-documented ownership and service history since new. Comes with the full set of
owner’s books complete with the original warranty card listing the first owner, plus their leather carrying
pouch; the tool roll and all tools; the vinyl cover for the removable Targa top and a three ringed binder with
plastic sleeves for all original ownership and service documents. Also comes with both a very nice wooden rimmed
steering wheel plus the Factory original leather-wrapped wheel. All major mechanical components have been serviced
through its life and so the engine, transmission, brakes and suspension all work as they should. We have all
original invoices and service docs on file.
328 GTS s/n 59649 has just had a pre-sale inspection done by Dugan Enterprises, Oceanside, CA, and is currently
being treated to a full cam belt service including all new rubber belts; an oil and filter change; an A/C service
plus a full new set of 205/50/16 front and 225/50/16 rear Kumo tires. A list of minor problems such as a loose left
mirror; a new air intake boot and an engine bay detail are being resolved. Estimated final invoice, approximately
$5,000.00 which is included in the sale price. Pre-sale inspection and estimate on file.
The Rosso Corsa FER 300/6 paint is very nice and appears to be all original with no signs of spot repairs over the
years and all panels have excellent gaps and fit. There is no evidence of accident repairs to the body, underside
or chassis. The trim, gaskets, window glass and lenses are also in excellent condition. The cream leather on the
seats and door panels is in excellent condition, especially considering that it is now 31 years old! The dash
covering and headliner are in excellent condition, again, especially considering that it is now 31 years old! The
carpets have been protected by throw rugs and are also in excellent condition. The car had excellent drivability
and functioning of all systems and has been extremely well sorted before the current service and will be even
better when finished! It goes straight hands-off with no shimmy and brakes in a straight line. The engine bay is
nicely detailed and the under panels, belly pan and suspension are in good condition. The A/C is being recharged
and will blow cold. 328 GTS s/n 59649 is fitted with the Factory optional 7 x 16 front and 8 x 16 rear wheels with
a new set of 205/50/16 front and 225/50/16 rear Kumo tires.
The 328 succeeded the highly popular 308 for the 1986 model year and offered an increased displacement V-8 plus a
myriad of detail improvements throughout. The mid-engine 328 featured an upgraded 3.2-liter V-8 putting out 270
horsepower, thanks to a sophisticated Marelli electronic ignition system and the retained Bosch K-Jetronic fuel
injection. The styling was freshened with new seat patterns, new door handles and tidier and more modern treatment
to the front and rear bumpers both of which were painted in body color. The controls were significantly reworked as
well, with new switch gear and revised dashboard and door trims. Production of the 328 ended in the fall of 1989,
marking the end of the transverse mid-engine Ferraris, a line that began with the 246 Dino. As one of the last
Ferraris engineered and launched during Enzo Ferrari’s lifetime and as the last of the pre-computer Ferraris, the
328s are revered for their blend of usability and comparable reliability, as well as the comparative ease of
servicing, thanks to in-car engine service work and cam-belt replacements. Thanks to the 328’s low sweeping body
lines and the sounds of the well-proven, high-revving V-8 right behind your seat, every trip to dinner, Sunday
brunch or your local coffee shop is a great driving experience.
From new in Rosso Corsa FER 300/6 with cream leather, a black dash and black carpets. 328 GTS s/n 59649 now has
60,339 total original miles and will be delivered with a full major cam belt and 30,000 mile service and. All smog
is in place but thanks to today’s draconian smog rules 328 GTS s/n 59649 is probably NOT California legal.

Two weeks and 2,000 miles in Ferrari's FF with Evo
Mon, 28 Jan 2013EVO's Harry Metcalfe had some questions about the day-to-day livability of the Ferrari FF. When he brought those questions up to Ferrari, they suggested he take one for a couple of weeks and try it out for, as he calls them, "mundane duties." The image above is Metcalfe pointing to the 660-horsepower, all-wheel drive FF parked in one of his fields because, since he lives on a farm, mucking about the green is part of his daily routine. "It could use more ground clearance," he says, "but that's an option on this car."
He does get it on the "tarmac" and he likes it even more there than in the mud. Except for the buttons on the steering wheel; he thinks learning to use them is like learning to play guitar. He has a lot more to say besides that, and you can watch him expound for all of 17 minutes in the video below.
Scuderia Ferrari displaces relatives of missing passengers at Malaysian hotel
Sun, 23 Mar 2014The action and glamor of a Formula One race coming to town is usually more than enough to shine an international spotlight on a host country, but Malaysia has made headlines recently for another reason entirely. That, of course, would be the disappearance of Malaysian Airlines flight 370. But with the two events coming together, something's going to have to give, and unfortunately in this case, it's the grieving families of the flight's passengers.
The clash came to a head when the Scuderia Ferrari came to town to set up for next weekend's race. Team members were booked to stay at the Cyberview Hotel in the capital of Kuala Lumpur, arrangements which F1 chief Bernie Ecclestone points out were likely to have been made long ago. The trouble is that over a dozen relatives of MH370 passengers who had come in from China were still staying at that hotel while awaiting word on their loved ones' fates, and with the hotel apparently filling up fast ahead of the grand prix weekend, those family members were forced to leave.
Just where they've gone, we don't know, but while the development may not look good for Ferrari or for F1, it strikes us as one of those unfortunate situations where no one is really to blame. The race has been booked for months, the team likely made their reservations long before the flight went missing, the hotel is obliged to honor the reservations and the grieving families need somewhere to stay. The tendency to point fingers often prevails, but in this situation we're afraid no one is to blame but the circumstances. That, and the still as-yet unknown cause of the flight's mysterious disappearance.
Ferrari rated world's most powerful brand ahead of Apple
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Ferrari has nabbed the honor of becoming the world's most powerful brand from Apple. According to Brand Finance, the Italian automaker earned the highest rating among all brands on the Global 500 list despite being worth considerably less than its competition. But the ranking takes into account more than just a company's bottom line. Brand Finance also looks at margins, average revenue per customer and less tangible notions like brand affection and loyalty.
There's no disputing those latter two categories, and this year saw Ferrari enjoy the best financial results in the automaker's history. In 2012, the company's revenue jumped by eight percent to 2.43 billion euro thanks in part to a 4.5 percent increase in deliveries worldwide.
Meanwhile, Apple squeaked out ahead of Samsung to earn the top spot as the most valuable brand at $400 billion. You can check out the Brand Finance press release below for more information.
