It has a "CLEAR REBUILT TITLE" Isn't that an oxy moron. Either a clear title or rebuilt title can't be both. How many miles?
I'm no expert, but a rebuilt title is not clear. I believe it typically has to be declared a total loss in order for a rebuilt title to be issued Best of luck on your sale, car is gorgeous.
Usually a big story behind the "rebuilt title " ??? However still a good deal to have a V12 Fcar for fun.
Rebuilt or salvage titles. I have a salvage title. I had not one straight panel. All wheels were broken. Suspension damaged. Good and both bumpers replaced. I paid $52,000 and spent $25,000 fixing. The car had less than 2,000 miles. It is a 2000 purchased in 03. Sat with the insurance company for a year. Car now has 19,000. Great car. My first Ferrari. Handles like nothing I ever drove. So I think the degree of damage dictates the title. A bumper and other small issues would not cause a salvage title. Insurance will declare a write off when the repair is 90% of car value.
I've posted the pics of the damage before and I will again. It was minor. Little damage on the front and a new bumper, that's all. It doesn't take much to total a ferrari. A fender bender is usually all it takes. Rebuilt means that it is rebuilt from salvage. Meaning it is inspected and qualifies as being safe for the road and up to par. I've sorted 95 percent of the car, driven it 3000 miles and it is a good reliable car. The only issues remaining are the ones that are discussed, which are nickel and dime in the grand scheme of things. Car is 95 percent there. Just needs a new owner to take it across the finish line. No suspension issues, no brake issues, no tranny issues, no gearbox issues, no sticky buttons, no shrinking on dash. I had the car shipped DIRECTLY to my mechanic the second I bought her. He gave me the list of what the car needed, and I told him to do it. The car needs nothing else. I have the records for what was done, and my mechanic will vouch for the car. It is a no brainer at the price it is. A 550 maranello with a full major with 575 engine mounts and a brand spanking new clutch. A car that you can run up to the next 15k service without blinking an eye. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Good buy in my opinion. I've owned rebuilt cars before that were rebuilt from worse shape and drove perfectly. That damage in the body shop world is very minor. This is a wicked driver IMO.
So is there ever a problem licensing or insuring? If so what type of problems? And I'd like some interior pics too. Thanks Bill
No problems licensing or insuring. I don't have that many interior photos at the moment. I have listed the photos of the ONLY defects in the interior. The rest of the interior is clean and in very good condition. Driver bolster has some wear that can be dyed. And there is a few scratches above the window switch. Other than that, the interior is great. Original Full red, and no shrinking.

UPDATE: The Suspension light has been fixed to permanently off. All the car needs now is the door lock fix, 02 extenders, and the front gasket. 2-2500k and she's 100 percent sorted.
