    The color "Rosso Dino" is a very old color among the Ferrari reds...

    To the eye, it's almost exactly the same as the 'Coyote Orange' AJ Foyt uses! LOL!

    I have seen it on modern cars, as late as a 360.....

    You may get a "caution" for using a website as your logIn here, just mentioning it....

    Thanks for starting this thread though, and welcome!

    The GT4 is nice but the C4 interior is a great period look. I would love to show it if it were mine.

    Lots of KM on many of those, they were driven.

    Never seen an orange TR before. Looks better than I would have thought.

    I have to admire the courage of his convictions- 8 Testarossas, 7 different colors, 1 of them being a spyder conversion.

    Probably drove the local spotters nuts.

    Thats NOT rosso dino ! Rosso dino is way darker.

    the 308 GT4 is in bad condition, worn interior, needs repaint and many non original parts.

    Have to agree, the orange TR is certainly "interesting"

    Sign me up interested in the 328 GTB. Very nice in silver with Euro trim and low miles. If I understand correctly the cars are in France but the dealer is in Germany. How is it to import a single used car into the USA these days? I brought in several before the ban.:(

    Jag XJ220, that's a rare sight.

    Looking at the interior pictures though, I recognized the climate controls matched those I had in my Ford Taurus in high school. Talk about disappointing.

    Same guy who was selling his cars through "Aux Chateaux du Sud-Ouest" (Pagani Dealer). Had loads of cars incl. F-50, Zonda, etc... Most of them never driven by the owner. A pure collector.

    Your complaining about perfectly functional heater controls? I don't want to know what else you see in cars, but a generic controls are a blessing when they break.
