ON THE LAWN: 2014 Ferraris on The Circle Shines in Sarasota

November 1, 2014 / moto+match / 0 Comments

The annual Ferraris on The Circle was held November 1, 2014 at St. Armands Circle Park in Sarasota, Florida. Now in its 14th year, the event is hosted by the Ferrari Owners Club and is the only Ferrari event of its kind and continues to draw more attendees every year. There were some 60 cars this year, ranging from what could be considered classics such as a gorgeous Azzurro 308 GT4 to current models like the 458 Italia and F12. We even ran into an old friend. A 1962 250 GTO drew a great deal of audience attention as well as some scorn from purists as it was in fact a replica. To the crowds that braved a blustery day, it was all simply a chance to see some exquisite examples from one of the world’s legendary marques.

With a newly imposed moratorium on events held on The Circle in 2015, there is a good chance that the Ferrari Owners Club will have to find a new circle, as its off-shoot, the Sarasota Exotic Carfest, did in 2014. By relocating to downtown Sarasota, the Carfest was able to facilitate more cars throughout a larger area, with a much more gracious—and even grateful—welcome by the neighboring merchants and establishments. As exotic car enthusiasts—and Ferraris in particular—let’s hope that Ferraris on The Circle continues to provide is with the opportunities to be Tifosi for a day.

IN THE NEWS: Ferrari Marks 60 Years in North America with F60America. And You Can’t Have One.

October 10, 2014 / moto+match / 0 Comments

Maranello, October 10th 2014. To celebrate Ferrari’s 60th year in North America, Maranello has returned to its 1950s and 60s tradition of producing strictly limited edition, built-to-order cars. The result is the F60America, of which just 10 will be produced. The new car combines our American clients’ two great passions – the V12 engine and open-top driving – and is being unveiled tomorrow evening at an anniversary celebration gala dinner at Beverly Hills City Hall.

The decision to produce such a strictly limited edition pays homage to another great tradition. Just 10 F60Americas will be built as was the case, for example, with the 1967 275 GTS4 NART Spider, the open version of the 275 GTB4 that the importer, Luigi Chinetti, specifically requested from Enzo Ferrari for his US clients.

The F60America is powered by Ferrari’s award-winning mid-front-mounted V12 which enables the car to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.1 seconds.

Powerfully muscular, the car is clothed in beautifully sculpted and exceptionally balanced volumes, honed, as ever, strictly to aerodynamic requirements in line with the marque’s DNA.

The F60America’s personality is instantly clear from its flanks which are characterised by an innovative diapason design theme. The front of the car is dominated by the classic Ferrari single front grille with chrome finish and integrated air intakes for the brakes.

Two leather-trimmed roll-hoops are backed by carbon-fibre-trimmed flying buttresses which stretch from behind the cockpit to the rear, imbuing the elegant harmonious forms of the tail with a sense of movement.

The F60America can be closed with a light fabric top usable at speeds of up to 120 km/h.

The cabin’s asymmetrical design highlights the driver’s area with sporty red trim, while the passenger side is black, inspired by the historic Ferrari competition cars. The cabin trim is exclusive with the dash, tunnel and door panels on the driver’s side all swathed in composite materials. The racing seats also feature a stylised American flag motif on the centre of each seat and backrest.

The F60America’s bodywork adopts the classic North American Racing Team livery, and the special Ferrari 60th anniversary Prancing Horse badge on the wheelarches also appears on the tunnel in the cabin.

The wonderfully elegant and unique F60America has entranced US collectors and all 10 examples are already spoken for.

IN MOTORSPORT: Ferrari Marks Milestones at Monaco

May 19, 2014 / moto+match / 0 Comments

Maranello, 19 May – This will be the 61st Monaco Grand Prix to count for the Formula 1 World Championship, the 72nd in all. The track layout has always used the same roads in the Principality, although over the years, there have been ten slight modifications to its length which is currently 3.340 kilometres. Ferrari has won eight times, equivalent to 13%.

The first ever Monaco GP in 1950 was the second ever championship race and Scuderia Ferrari’s first. 19 cars started but 10 of them got no further than the opening lap. Giuseppe Farina, in an Alfa Romeo crashed at Tabac and was hit by Jose Froilan Gonzalez in a Maserati. The road was blocked and the rest of the group couldn’t avoid them and it ended in a carambolage. Juan Manuel Fangio won for Alfa Romeo, with Alberto Ascari second in the Ferrari.

The race did not return to the calendar until 1955, when Maurice Trintignant won in a Ferrari. The Frenchman was noted for his tidy style and made the most of the misfortunes of others, winning from ninth. To this day, there has only been one winner who started further back.

Although the Scuderia won elsewhere, victory in the Principality escaped it for 20 years, with Niki Lauda taking the 1975 win in the 312 T and doing it again the following year.

In 1979, it was an all Ferrari front row with Jody Scheckter ahead of Gilles Villeneuve, but only the South African finished where he started. It was the Canadian’s turn two years later in the 126 CK when he made no mistakes, while overtaking Alan Jones in the Williams with just four laps to go. The spectacular win made waves in North America and Gilles and the number 27 Ferrari even featured on the cover of “Time” magazine.

This victory for the Scuderia was followed by another barren patch in Monaco. It took the arrival of Michael Schumacher to see a return to victory. In 1996, the German took pole but failed to finish that crazy race which saw only four cars make it to the line, the winner being Olivier Panis, the Frenchman having started 14th. The next year, at the wheel of the F310B, the German outclassed the field to win with 53 seconds in hand over Rubens Barrichello in the Stewart and over a minute in front of his team-mate, Eddie Irvine.

Two years later, Schumacher and Irvine finished first and second, while in 2001 Michael won for the fifth time in the Principality to equal Graham Hill’s achievement, only one win short of the Monaco record holder, Ayrton Senna.

ON THE BLOCK: What to Watch Friday at Auction America Auburn Spring

May 9, 2014 / moto+match / 0 Comments

Lot No. 2098 – 1978 Ferrari 308 GTB
Estimate: $ 45,000 – $ 55,000

Unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in 1975, the Ferrari 308 was a replacement for the successful 246 Dino line. It sported a Pininfarina styled body that was available in only a GTB coupe variant early on, and then in 1977, Ferrari introduced the GTS (Targa Top) model. Its iconic wedge shaped body lines were designed by Leonardo Fioravanti who had been famous for his previous work; the 365 Daytona and 246 Dino. The early carbureted cars such as the one offered here, sport the standard 2.9-liter mid-engine V-8 which produced about 240 horsepower fitted to a five-speed manual transmission. Ferrari went on to produce fuel injected 308’s making the GTSi, GTBi available starting in 1980, and the Quatrovolve, in 1983. Total production numbers for all variation were 12,149 in a span of ten years, 1975 to 1985. Although being the highest production model Ferrari in existence, the 308 is a must have for any collector or enthusiast. In particular, the early carbureted cars prove to be the most valuable among the Ferrari community with the GTB being the ‘drivers car’ as opposed the open GTS variant.

This car, chassis number F106AB25879 is an early carbureted car finished the classic Ferrari color combination of Rosso Corsa over a contrasting Tan interior. Sold new out of sunny Florida, it spent the majority of its life under the care of the first owner until being acquired by the second owner, a Pennsylvania based Ferrari collector, in 2006. Between its two owners, it gathered a mere 28,910 miles from new, always being serviced and cared for along the way. The most recent 30K service was completed just 3 years ago under the second owner’s discretion. The paint is extremely presentable as is the interior and engine bay confirming its low mileage and caring ownership. This example is also complete with tools, jack, and spare making it a complete package for the discriminating enthusiast. The Ferrari market has risen to levels unlike any other marque making the brand a centerpiece for the collector car world. 308’s have seen recent value hikes but currently remain very affordable as an investment that can be enjoyed. A low mileage GTB in the best color combination, with 2-ownership history and great accessories is surely an opportunity not to be missed.

Lot No. 2101 – 1962 Mercedes-Benz 220 SEb Cabriolet
Estimate: $ 40,000 – $ 60,000

This Mercedes-Benz was originally purchased by a young doctor in Marin County, California and given to his bride as a wedding present. She drove it for 20 years, albeit with complaints of having to use a stick-shift; eventually the good doctor replaced it for her with a 450SL. From this ownership it was bought by a gentleman in Mill Valley, California, where he spent four years performing an “over the top” restoration. Although the car was rust-free, the car was completely stripped of all paint and undercoating. He then applied new undercoating and 20 coats of Havana Brown lacquer to all visible sheetmetal. Being a true fanatic doing the work; the car also had three coats of Havana Brown applied to the undercarriage. The 2,195-cc, 120-hp six-cylinder engine was completely rebuilt and the car received a new four-speed transmission, new clutch, new brakes, new top, new wool headliner, re-chromed bumpers and more. This includes a dashboard that is burled Carpathian elm and is “as fine as you are likely to see.” The restorer/owner bought two additional Mercedes-Benz’ to obtain the leather for the seats he was redoing, and they are now presented in the rare two-tone Palomino and Tan combination. Among the equipment on the car are a Becker Mexico AM/FM radio, air conditioning; power top, windows, steering and brakes.

The current owner has owned the car for 28 years and when he heard of it being for sale, he contacted an appraiser to look the car over. The appraiser was so impressed with the quality of work; he had the restorer/owner work on his own cars. When purchased by the current owner, it arrived in Chicago with 81,023 miles on it – during the ensuing years, it now has a total of 85,110 miles. After driving it 1,000 miles over the first two years of ownership, it now spends most of its time under a car cover in the owner’s garage. It is now mainly used for early Sunday morning drives on Lake Shore Drive, but only if it is sunny weather. This lovely car has never seen snow, and it has never been parked and left unattended in the last 28 years. The Mercedes-Benz comes with a folder filled with letters and notes from the restorer/ex-owner that includes diagrams on how to oil and grease the car, as well as the locations of tiny drain holes that allow the car to go out in the rain and properly drain any falling moisture. The car is also accompanied by multiple documents, owner’s manual and tools.

Lot No. 2117 – 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302
Estimate: $ 65,000 – $ 75,000

This Mustang is reported as a rotisserie-restored California car with 55,705 actual miles per its verification by a Marti Report. It is finished in Bright Yellow (sometimes referenced as Grabber Yellow) with a black interior and runs with a 302-cid, 290-hp V-8 engine with a four-speed manual transmission and 3.91 gearing in a correct V-code Traction-Lok rear end. The drivetrain is reported as correct to the car. Other desirable features include this being a factory shaker car, rear decklid spoiler, Sports Slats, AM radio, power brakes and Magnum 500 wheels. It has been signed by racing legends Parnelli Jones and George Follmer, who as teammates in 1970, took their Bud Moore-prepared Boss 302 Mustangs to the coveted Trans-Am manufacturer’s title.

Lot No. 3037 – 1969 NSU Ro 80
Estimate: $ 10,000 – $ 14,000

The Ro 80 was considered to be a technologically advanced automobile produced by the West German firm of NSU from 1967-1977. Most notably was the drivetrain consisting of a 113 horsepower 995-cc twin-rotor Wankle engine with front-wheel drive. It also featured a fully independent suspension with rack-and-pinion steering and four-wheel disc brakes. This special example is finished in bright lime green with a black vinyl interior. It also has a manual transmission, bucket seats, sunroof, AM/FM radio and alloy wheels. The appearance of this sedan is very original within the engine compartment and interior and is likely one of the best examples to be found in America.

Lot No. 3055 – 1963 Ford Thunderbird Sports Roadster
Estimate: $ 40,000 – $ 45,000

Once again the Sports Roadster made an appearance at the top of the Thunderbird lineup. At $5,563 it was also the most expensive T-Bird available that year. There were minimal changes in styling as this was the final year of the third generation of Thunderbird styling introduced in 1961. Known as the bullet birds, the reference referred to the look of the rear taillights. The Thunderbird found itself to have competitors with the introduction of the Pontiac Grand Prix, Buick Riviera, Olds Starfire and the Studebaker GT Hawk. As a result, sales dropped nearly 20-percent from the year before. It is one of just 455 Sports Roadsters of a total of 63,133 Thunderbirds produced for 1963.

Painted in classic Rangoon Red over a contrasting red leather interior, this T-Bird is equipped with the 390-cid V-8, automatic transmission, power steering and brakes and AM/FM radio and chrome wire wheels.

PICK OF THE DAY: Track-Ready Ferrari F355 Challenge with Truck and Trailer

May 7, 2014 / moto+match / 0 Comments

Beginning in 1993 with the Ferrari 348, the scuderia supplied its dealers with kits designed to convert their stock road cars to purpose-built machines for the track. This coinciding with a new marque-specific racing series known as the Ferrari Challenge. Though not a formula series, the Challenge kit gave Ferrari 348 owners the opportunity to measure their driving against other owners with cars that were identical in spec (much like the longstanding Porsche Carrera Cup). All subsequent V8 Ferraris up to the current 458 have had their own Challenge series. With significant improvements over the Ferrari 348, the F355 Challenge featured the same 3.5 litre 40-valve v8 as the road car, but that is essentially where the similarities end. The cars were stripped of anything that was unnecessary weight and suppressed horsepower, replaced by a roll-cage, racing seats, free-flow exhausts, Brembo brakes, competition steering rack and wheel, carbon fiber bumpers, and more. By 1998, the factory was supplying the cars as nearly turnkey, with only the carbon rear wing having to be fit by dealers. Although the Challenge Series today is made up of mostly 458s with a few F430s left over, the F355 Challenge is still formidable for SCCA and club events. This example is a complete factory car with all updates including gearbox cooler and new ABS computer. It is said to have been “fanatically maintained” throughout its 24,000-mile racing career and includes two sets of Challenge-spec Speedlines as well as several tire sets for various conditions. To be clear, it is not street legal, but the package includes a very capable 2007 Ford F350 Lariat with 50,000 miles as well as a 20-foot trailer. This is by no means a cheap hobby, but for anyone looking to move beyond autocrosses and gymkhanas, this would offer world-class thrills for less than a fourth of what it would cost to jump in new. With only 108 F355 Challenge are made, they rarely come on the market. Find the whole package here on Craigslist in Deland FL for $95,475.

ON THE BLOCK: Keith Richards Ferrari Dino 246GT Offered with No Reserve at Coy’s Monaco

May 1, 2014 / moto+match / 0 Comments

A 1972 Ferrari Dino 246GT, first owned by the Rolling Stones rock star Keith Richards, is to be sold at no reserve at Coys’ auction in Monaco on Friday 9th May.

The Dino 246 is one of those rare examples that acquired the title of “collector’s car’ almost while still in production. It established itself rapidly as one of the ‘must have’ accessories of the 1970s and gained a fairly star-studded list of owners. This example on offer at Coys’ auction must represent one of the most starry as it was purchased new by the rock and roll legend Keith Richards in California in February 1972.

Already a connoisseur of fine cars by the time he took delivery of this car, Keith kept the Dino for fourteen years until 1986, and in this time he covered over 25,000 miles. He brought it to the UK in 1975 where it was registered to his address in Munro Terrace in Chelsea, London, and assigned the UK registration number GYL 157N.

Accompanying the car is a letter from the Rolling Stones’ manager Alan Dunn confirming Richards’ ownership and mileage up until April 1986. The car has since then spent an extended period in a prestigious Japanese collection.

Chris Routledge, Managing Partner at Coys, said: “A Dino offered at no reserve is rare enough in itself and would make this is a highly desirable and collectible item in its own right, but when one adds to this proven long-term ownership by rock and roll aristocracy, the Keith Richards’s car has to be the ultimate Dino and will surely give any car collector and rock enthusiast a great ‘Satisfaction’!”

The sale will also feature a 1950 Cisitalia Abarth 204 A Spyder, driven by the legendary Italian motorcycle and race car driver Tazio Nuvolari on at least two occasions in 1950. First, he raced it in the April 2nd Targa Florio, where he was sidelined by transmission failure, and then a week later in the April 10th Palermo Monte Pellegrino hillclimb, where he brought it home first in the 1100cc class. This was the final race of Nuvolari’s overwhelmingly diverse and successful career.

This car is one of four two seat Cisitalia 204 A Spyder Corsas taken by Carlo Abarth, which were the basis of Abarth & Co. Srl. This car is Cisitalia chassis number 4 and is the last one built in Italy. It was then assigned chassis number 8 by Abarth in the sequence of 204 A’s built and is the first Abarth, documented by the original Certificate of Origin retained by a museum in Italy. The car is estimated at €1,400,000 to €1,800,000.

The 204 A was designed by Giovanni Savonuzzi with spare botticella style Spyder Corsa coachwork crafted by Carrozzeria Rocco Motto and adaptable to both formula competition and, with bumpers and lights added, as a road going sports car.

Chris Routledge said: “This is an exceptional opportunity to celebrate the most serendipitous gathering of postwar racing and automobile personalities. A car with splendid appearance, impeccable history and tailored to the requirements of “The Flying Mantuan”, Tazio Nuvolari, by a master of Italian speed, Carlo Abarth. Likely to be one of the most historically important sport racing cars, this may be the only opportunity to acquire this icon at auction.”
