As far as I know you can remove a panel that leads into the driver's compartment. That's probably how you service the front part. I believe the engine is somewhere between a 308 and a 348 with the addition of the two turbos, so it should be about the same in service. | ||

The engine does not look very DIY. It looks like you cannot access the forward cylinders without removing the engine. This brings up a good question, How does one service the 288? Anyone work on them? JRV? | ||

The car at Symbolic is at asking price $ 349,000. They have another coming at $ 325,000 with less than 8K Miles. Since these cars are not driven on the street anyway might as well import one from outside the US and import it as a race car. Can still drive it on dealer plates. This car in Germany Ansgar would be $ 215,000 plus flying it to the US $ 7,000. You save $ 100,000 just in doing that! | ||

I think the 288 is one of the best looking cars they ever made. I wish ferrari would do some kind of retro 288 like ford is doing with the mustang. new, but has that old flavor without being a total copy. The newer f cars are getting too non descript with all the rounding of the edges. gonna look like a ford taurus before too long! | ||
