Aussie Ferrari Spotters Thread??

Who drives the 3 foot shorter 360 reg 508508 that had the little mishap in Moonee Ponds yesterday. Checked the club register but couldn't find out who owned it. Poor bugger won't be driving that again.

 

Ive never seen a press article about a Ferrari with this amount of accuracy. The year, model and approx value are spot on!

The reporter must have talked to PeePee's Dad.

Obviously this was an Australian Delivered Ferrari.

 

That sort of crap doesn't do any good for any of us, does it?

 

Hello down under! I had the wonderful opportunity to visit your country for my 5th time in 8 years July 19 to the 28th in Sydney and the Blue Mountains. Great trip and as always our Australian division did not disappoint with all of the activities and heavy drinking that always seems to happen.

It was good to see a few F cars while returning to Sydney: Modern TR in a showroom building as well as I think a recreation of an original TR, also spotted a California along the same route and a yellow 348. The only other car of mention was a Gallardo seen in the same area same day.

Blue mountains were awesome but colder than expected.

 

Posted in the 308 section. How good does this look??

I enjoyed that.....BUT was it a 308 turbo or a 208 turbo?
Was there a 308 turbo?

 

Neither
308 GTB group 4 ( real or copy, can't tell)
3 litre, Normally aspirated.


There was a 208 GTB or GTS turbo, 2 litre, Italy only model, designed to take advantage of Italy's engine size based tax/rego system. Not popular outside of Italy as you can imagine. There was also a 208 GT4, (non turbo).

If you want a proper 308 GTB turbo then you'll need to step up to a 288GTO

Sounded like a turbo to me, though.

And I thought *I* spend too much on my 308!!

 

Yes, its a copy of a Michelotto Group 4 created my a regular on the 308 section.

Sure do LOVE those Group 4 flares on the rear.

Sometimes, I get tempted to fit a pair to my car and get some coffin spoke Campy's to fill in the flares.........theyre a bit boxer-ish.

 

It's a copy that I think is in an upcoming auction.
I saw an exceptional Michelotto replica last year in Geneva. Pretty much indistinguishable from the real thing; but lighter and more powerful. If you want to step up to that level its €200k plus; but what a car.

 

lol..is that all??

 

You can hear the blow off valve doing it's business
