Blu Chiaro 348ts with Speedlines on BaT. sn 86274. Image Unavailable, Please Login https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1990-ferrari-348-10
Seconded! I didn’t see any reference to a major service, so guessing it’s unknown by the dealer/seller. Will be fun to watch where this goes. Those Speedlines are my favorite wheel on the 348.
This is the same one that was for sale by Porsche of Austin a couple months ago. I believe they were asking $46k at the time. Car's been cleaned up since then.
It's easy to get overwhelmed by the imagery and then miss the text. "The seller notes that there is no record of a timing belt or water pump service." So, based on that, and the chipped red paint on the valve covers, I'd say that a full service is due.
Is the seller, "Wob" a broker? Is he on here? He lists a lot of cars for sale. His silver GT4 a few weeks back was nice, and seems it should've sold for $56K+ fees. Interesting to see this 348 and where she goes, that blue is AMAZING.
That is actually a very nice colour I’m not too fond of those wheels, but that’s just me - to each his own
What's the deal with the rear wheels being so off-center in the wheel wells? I've noticed that on some, but not all, 348s. This one seems to be particularly bad though. Is it correctable?
The ts I had looked a bit like that after installing the Hill 25mm rear spacers. While they inproved the high speed handling considerably, I didn't care for the aesthetics. On the other hand, the stock setup made the wheels look too "tucked in". Here's my current tb (stock) compared to the blue car (ZFFFG36A7L0086274).

Modulars look good in 2 places. 575s, and here. I totally dig the wheels, and I'll second that this was the Porsche of Austin car. sjd
Yeah I just don't like modulars on these cars, to me you need to get to 19 or bigger before modulars look good. I suppose that's why they make chocolate and vanilla.
Just to be clear, I'm talking about the side view. The wheels are set forward in the wheel wells. Not sure how offset could affect that. I was wondering if there is maybe a large tolerance in the rear subframe mounting or maybe rear tow angle?
That's possibly to do with the ride height. I agree though, some cars the rear wheels seem to sit forward in the arch.
No records from 2002 to present and a fair amount of rust around the door sills, I think the buyer overpaid.....by a lot
For me, not saying its true, but for me, no records means it was likely driven with dealer plates and speedo unhooked. Pull the motor and go though it but jope leak down passes before they even start. Fingers crossed. It could be a deal, maybe not. Hope it work out for the purchaser. We'll see if it goes back up for sale with a story as to why. Side note, I have seen one cars records where it was sold back and forth repeatedly between several dealers exclusively for well over a decade across several states no less, but mileage never went up from the first dealer buy. Riiiggggght.....
Yeah, I totally flubbed my post. Meant to say "A great sale indeed" because it probably needs at least $8K in service including "while you're in there" costs.
I may not have found my first F car yet but presentation sold that car, it was excellent and ill agree I felt it was high for lack of records. I had bid on it myself, and when it was at the porsche dealer I inquired about it, never got a call back and poof it was gone till it showed up on BAT
Very surprised to see what this car brought. All I can think of is the rare color brought in the $$$. It is a beautiful color combo.
