    I heard Cosby's TR would lure you back to his garage and try to sneak pills in your drink.

    So, reading the lists, seems like the losers of celebrities of the 80s had Testarossa's.

    Now that explains why prices are still compressed.

    Any big shot names beside Jordan have one ? Eddie Murphy, Cosby, not my idea of big names in Hollywood.

    Where are the BIG stars How about the racist Mel Gibson ? Or someone like De Niro, or Larry Hagman ? Robert Redford ?

    Didn't Sylverster stallion have one ? Where was Dean Martin ? Harrison Ford ?

    Please, don't tell me Todd bridges, or Corey Feldman, the names so far seem ..... Ummm ....lacking

    Peter Weller - 1989 Red / Tan Testarossa / Classic Ferrari Dallas, TX. I have photos of the car somewhere. It was stored there for a while due to his filming schedule during Robocop II.

    He also owned a white 1989 Testarossa. I think I bought it 5 months ago and now doing belts in Toronto at Lamborghini who services my cars. It was repainted white and haven't found out why yet. Has been sitting in a warehouse for 5 years unused at 34K.

    We sold Richard Prior a black/black TR. We also sold Jose Cansecos's white/white, Joe Montana's red/beige and and Ricky Hendersons red/beige I think.

    Thanks for that memory! I just showed this to my 11 year old. Now he'd like to hear more Richard Pryor stories. I told him 'In due time.'

    Black it is.

    We sold Jack Clark a Countach. He brought it back the next day and traded it for a TR.

    Tom Selleck's T.R was chassis # 58267, according to Matthias Urban's book.

    I am surprised he had one as tall as he is. I am only 5-10 or so and my hair rubs the headliner. Tom is several inches taller. I fit height wise in a 328 GTS better and Selleck had to drive the TV car with the roof off and the seat reclined as far as possible.

    Well I don't know anything about that car's history, just the chassis #, Brian.
    I was browsing through the book one day looking for some information about the first 328s and I found this, rather by chance.

    Wow! Even back then his expressions say "I didn't do it." At least he keeps his service pouch is in the right place.
