Any1 successful getting a reprint of a window sticker?

Hello Rick
As I recall, there was a PDF of a window sticker for either a 308 of 328. Try using the search.... Thanks.

 

It's there - do a search. Took me 9 seconds.... I could do the easy thing and hit CTRL-V right now, but I'm EVIL

Seriously - this is a good object lesson in using the SEARCH button.

I thought he meant getting a reprint of a window sticker for his own car. In other words, if you have a car, Ferrari or other, and do not have the window sticker (maybe you bought it used and the original owner did not keep it), can you get a copy of the window sticker for your car (from a dealer or the company maybe)?

WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

~10 years ago I had FNA provide me with a duplicate original of the window sticker for my former 348 Spider. I just called and asked and they mailed it to me a couple of weeks later.

 

This will be an informative post if FNA works it out for you. Cant wait for you to get a reply and hear the answer. I would really like to have my original one too. I have one but its a different serial number.

Standing by.

 

i emailed fna with a request for a duplicate of my original window sticker. they responded in 1 day and informed me that i need to contact the dealer where i bought my 360.after i explained that the dealer and i are not really talking too much these days and that i requested one when i bought the car last nov. but i was told that they cannot help me , the friendly fna person called the dealership and emailed me back that i should be receiving one shortly. i will post when i get it

 

cool. wonder if euro cars like mine even had a window sticker? mine was sold new to Germany. *44297* 84 QV GTB.

 

That would likely depend upon what, if any, 'sticker' is used in Germany for new cars.

U.S. window stickers are not a Ferrari/Italy thing; they could care less. All they do is ship the goods over the pond to Ferrari N.A., who has the responsibility, along with the dealer network, of getting all of the paperwork lined/sorted out.

 

Did you ever wonder why new vehicles have window stickers? Many people
think they are meant to show your neighbors that you bought a new car,
or to annoy you with the glue residue on the window, but this is not the
case.

In March of 1958, Senator Michael Monroney, Chairman of the Senate
Subcommittee on Automobile Marketing Practices, proposed a bill that
would take the mystery out of new car prices. This bill required every
automobile manufacturer to attach a label to the window of each new
vehicle, which would show the manufacturer's suggested retail price,
transport methods, freight charges, and accessory prices. This would be
the first time in twenty years that a consumer could walk into an
automobile dealership and find an itemized, accurate price tag on a new
vehicle.

Prior to the proposal of this bill, there was often a large discrepancy
between the showroom price and the actual price of a new vehicle. The
fact was that existing price tags did not tell the full story. Most
customer-quoted prices were for "stripped-down" models and did not
include additions for preparation charges, freight charges, federal,
state, and local taxes, or optional factory-installed equipment
requested by the purchaser.

These hidden charges were used by some dealers to increase the selling
price while giving the new vehicle buyer an inflated idea of their
trade-in allowance. This price confusion led to a slump in auto sales
during the early 1950's. Senator Monroney's bill was designed to
prevent the abuse of the new vehicle list prices, but would not,
however, prevent dealers and buyers from bargaining over vehicle prices.

Senator Monroney received widespread support for this bill from both
consumers and dealers. Dealers viewed the Monroney Label as an
opportunity to restore the confidence of the new vehicle buyers, which
they hoped would result in a more successful sales year.


On July 7, 1958, Monroney's bill became a law. Beginning on September
1, 1958, every automobile manufacturer was required to securely affix a
label to the window of the vehicle, disclosing information concerning
the vehicle and its price. Any manufacturer who failed to comply, could
be levied a fine of not more than $1000. Removal, alteration, or
illegibility of the required label could result in a fine of not more
than $1000 and/or imprisonment of not more than one year.

Once enacted, the law increased both dealer morale and auto sales.
Customers grew more confident in their ability to make an informed
decision and get the best deal possible. This law was instrumental in
brightening industry-wide automobile sales during that time, by
increasing consumer confidence.

In this day and age, we tend to take window stickers for granted, but
the next time you are out shopping for a new Chevy, you can
thank Senator Michael Monroney for making your job much easier.

 

Could you post the e-mail you used to get a response?
Thanks,

 

hope this helps...i'm still waiting but it's been less than a week



Dear Mr. Philpin,


Thank you for your email.

Unfortunately, a window sticker can only be obtained by request from your local Ferrari dealership. If I may have your address, I would be happy to provide you with your local Ferrari dealership's information.

I look forward to your reply.

With warmest regards,

To customer support,



I recently contacted Ferrari about receiving a copy of the original window sticker that came with my vehicle when purchased by the original owner back in 2004.

Attached is the response from Maranello. Can a copy be sent to me if I provide the correct information?

Thank You in advance

John Philpin

 

I have a copy of one (assuming you are looking for a F355) PM me with your e-mail address and i'll send it to you.

Not all Ferraris had window stickers. My 612, for instance, which is a USA model but a european delivery car, never had a window sticker.

The window stickers are created and printed by FNA-- SpA has nothing to do with them. SpA does have a build sheet which is similar, and an invoice, but they aren't window stickers (and good luck getting them!).
