The "Jaws of Life" made short work on the engine lid! Also,why would they swipe the hood badge but leave the chrome cavallino on the rear panel? I do agree though, that buy it now is waaayyyy steep!

Why do they say it is not fixable ... anything is fixable if you are stupid or motivated enough. Definitely looks like it could be fixed to me ... that F40 was a lot worse.

It would take a lot of work but somebody will probably turn it in to something ... maybe a racecar.

I just cannot understand the add saying it is not fixable ... most would have said 'quick paint and retrim and away you go with your very own Ferrari, quick sell thus get in quick :-)'

Something is fishy about such extensive damage and the tires did not get fried...

Would it still be a Ferrari if we put this body on a Fiero?

Just kidding....

I agree it is kinda high for a yard ornament but that is just the kinda thing I would like to have in front of my business. I think it would be good to have a junk Ferrari sitting out front just to draw attention to my storefront. Of course I would have it painted to catch the eye.

When people asked for directions I would just down the highway and there is a Ferrari sitting out front. I am imagine it would become a kind of local landmark.

What would be a fair price for a 308 GTB/GTS with no engine or trans no interior just wheels body and glass?

Am I the only one who finds the Buy It Now price to be quite high? Seven grand is expensive for a yard ornament.

What a shame! Looks like it originated from the interior - rather than the engine.

Also looks like some pre-fire damage, so maybe not that nice of a car to begin with.

Chris Sawyer would re-spray it, snap a picture from 20 feet amd list it on ebay for $45,000 as a multiple FCA concourse winner.
