1963 Ferrari Convertible Body Replica On 1978 Nissan 280z on 2040-cars
San Clemente, California, United States
This Velo Rossa kit car was built on a 1978 Nissan 280Z that was
completely refurbished in 1999 prior to creating the look of a 1963
Ferrari Spyder, and I have owned it ever since. The movie Farris
Bueller's Day Off showed a 1961 version of this car, but this one is
more Lotus-styled. Only 42 actual Ferrari's of this type were built and
the going rate for a real one is around $10M. This is a great
cruising car that makes people want to complement you or ask about its
history on every drive. Teenagers always want to race with you. In 1999
an ATK-Japan rebuilt stock 280Z engine was professionally installed (now with 12K
additional miles on it) and numerous other updates since then (clutch, brakes, tires, master cylinder, injectors, hoses, belts, certain gauges). It has the stock 5 speed transmission, AC &
removable hard top. All finishing body work was done professionally and completed with quality Ferrari Rosa red PPG paint with clearcoat; still looks fantastic! Originally and currently a Florida-titled Nissan
280Z, always well maintained, garaged, and only adult driven for cruising and showing. There are plenty of finer details left to
make it your own and make perfect, but she looks and drives beautifully. Spent nearly $40K in building and maintaining it for 14
years, and now it's time to pass the torch -- at half price! Have all
major receipts and pics of build history, maintenance manual, owner's manual, and Ferrari history book.

Subcompact sales slump, yet again
Maserati adds rear seats to GranTurismo MC Stradale for Geneva
Wed, 27 Feb 2013More seats inside the Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale means the possibility of a wider audience in more ways than one. Currently only available as a two-seater (we don't get the Stradale version, we get the four-seat GranTurismo MC), the addition of back seats will allow twice as many folks inside, and add the car to the purchase lists of those who need to carry more than two souls in their race-derived, 470-horsepower luxury coupes.
Furthermore, the MC Stradale now gets a carbon fiber hood with an air intakes and extractors, 20-inch alloys and new materials inside. It will take the A-lister's spot on the Maserati stand at the Geneva Motor Show, making its world debut alongside the European debut of the new Quattroporte. The press release below can tell you more.
Autocar compares new Maserati Quattroporte to Jaguar XJ
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Autocar's Steve Sutcliffe took the 2014 Maserati Quattroporte on a spin along snowy mountain roads to test it for a specific brief: as a limousine for the chauffeured class. It's sporting credentials are impressive: Twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter V8, 532 horsepower, 475 pound-feet of torque in casual circumstances that rises to 532 lb-ft in overboost, a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour sprint of 4.7 seconds and a top speed of 191 mph.
However, citing Maserati's desire to not just increase its sales to 50,000-per-annum by 2015, but to sell many more of its cars in China, Sutcliffe wanted to find out if the livery side of the Quattroporte could match its sport sedan side. So after taking the pilot's seat and trying out the sport settings, Sutcliffe hops in back to test out the CEO's seat.
Then he compares the Quattroporte against the long-wheelbase Jaguar XJ with its supercharged V8, a sedan that's 15,000 pounds less expensive than the Maserati. It doesn't take long for him to find that one of them is a clear winner when it comes to transporting VIPs. To find out which one, enjoy the video below.
