    its a nice car that had a tan interior and now its red. That's why the package tray is tan. I think it only has like 24 k on it. Not a bad buy but not a great one either. All of the service is up to date.

    If you need more help, let me know, I'm out there all the time. Can send detailed digital pics.

    Have you contacted a salesman yet? If not, I'd start there, FoW are straight shooters. My salesman is Ralph, 703.478.3606.

    Good luck, Will

    I drove the car four times in December and it ran great. Ralph showed me their service invoice and it totaled arund 10K. I think he called it a "major-plus service" or something. The temp controls in the center console did not work properly and the plastic was loose. It comes from some prominent family if I remember correctly that have owned other Ferraris. The seats do look and feel new. There is a little wear on the driver side bolster. I thought, relative to another 328 I looked at, that it was a little slower. Other than that, the car was flawless. Ralph did say he would dye the side of the seat and have the temp. controls fixed. The engine bay was flawless as well. I narrowed the 4 328's I was looking at down to this one due to it's cleanliness and very recent service. Black and red is what I wanted but ultimately I went with a black/red 348 TS instead. It took a full month to decide. Took delivery of it a few weeks ago. I might have some more info on it laying around. Let me know if you need more.

    That's an asking price, isn't it?

    Are there no more Kelly Blue Book values for Ferraris? (Then what does NoVA base their car taxes on?)

    Gate,
    I saw this car the other weekend and outside of the comments already posted the car has "rock chips" all over the front hood. Some filled in well others terrible. I was surprised at how bad the front hood was. Just some extra info, good luck!

    In all fairness the asking price was just that. The thing I like about FMOW is that they are willing to work with you. In fact I made mention of the rock chips too. I would drive it if you haven't. For no other reason than to compare it to other 328s you may drive.
