    I bought this car in August of 2021 and I've had an immense amount of fun with it but I'm ready for the next one. Car was purchased from Ferrari Bentley Lotus of Denver then shipped to Southern California. I believe I was the 3rd owner. Previous owner had this car the majority of its life and it was serviced exclusively by FBLOD. I can provide digital records that were provided to me. Window sticker was $343K and is included in the attached photos. Car has a lien with FFUSA. Asking price is $143k.

    GTO rims and grill were purchased from Scuderia Car Parts. Michelin Pilot Super Sport K1 tires purchased from Tire Rack. Rims and tires have less than 500 miles on them and are still immaculate. I will consider swapping the wheels and grill for the original ones (wheels have some blemishes and need tires) at an adjusted price. Fabio 6-1 exhaust w/ race pre-cats and Tubi cat deletes purchased from DZ-96 on this forum. Exhaust valve controller is a Forza Componenti. Radio in car is a Pioneer DEH-X9500BHS (original radio on hand). There is a K40 in the car that I've since disabled since acquiring which shouldn't be too hard to re-enable if you choose to. Original car cover and CTEK battery tender is included. The original tire inflator/repair kit was no good and was replaced with one by Griot's Garage.

    Serviced/Upgraded at RMT Motorsports in Yorba Linda. Work included valve cover gaskets, spark plugs, spark plug gaskets, annual fluids changed including gear box fluid, brakes and parking brakes adjusted, window adjusted, exhaust and exhaust controller installed. Receipt of work can be provided.

    If you've seen anybody's postings regarding the Fabio exhaust, you'll know that the consensus is that the car sounds so much better than stock and that videos/recordings don't do the sound justice. Cold start from about 5 feet behind the car has startup at 120 dB. In a canyon with the window open and the meter just outside the window I was getting readings closer to 130 dB. The pitch is reminiscent of F1 V12s. The downshifts are brutal. Randy at RMT Motorsports likened the sound to that of the F12 Berlinetta. I have the original exhaust parts which can be included for an additional amount.

    I've also done 2 cheap mods to the car. I replaced the last 2 shift lights with blue LEDs to look more similar to F1 steering wheels and to make shifting a lot easier without looking down to count red LEDs. The cover for the rev lights has seen better days though. I've also replaced the puddle lights on the doors to ones with the Ferrari prancing horse. I have the original lights still which will be included.

    Car was well driven by the previous owner and by me. Mechanically, the car feels amazing. There are secondary air system errors that come up sometimes so consider this regarding smog checks as you might need to time when you go in for them. I've been assured by RMT Motorsports there is no negative effect to the car other than smog concerns.

    Body has PPF that was done a very long time ago. Rock chips are present especially on the rocker panels. Debris hit the driver side rocker panel at one point and is shown in the attached pictures. Bottom side of front bumper also has some scrapes from the ground.

    Interior is near perfect at first glance. No sticky buttons at all. All the cuoio leather is perfect. Blue stitching to match the body color of the car. Dash has shrinkage.

    I've been as thorough as humanly possible in describing the car but additional information/pictures can be provided if requested. I think I've priced the car well based on upgrades and condition. If you wish to make an offer, justify it--I'm very reasonable.

    Original to the car exhaust at additional cost? Will you swap them?

    Nice example, love TDF blue. GLWS.

    I'd rather not. It was really expensive to get put in and took a bit of time. I'll discuss it if someone is super ready to buy I guess.

    I don't have a PROPER video at the moment. But here's a lousy one from inside the car, windows cracked an inch, recorded on a s21 ultra for reference:
    Valves fully open, several full stops to WOT and shifting at ~8200 RPM. Cruising between 4000 and 5000 RPM.

    I'll try to get some better recordings this weekend

    All good! I actually debated putting it in my essay of a listing for better visibility. I should have. 32K miles for anybody that missed it :)

    Price Reduction: $155k. I'll cut a really good deal if buyer wants the original wheels, grill, and exhaust included uninstalled.

    A couple thousand is what I remember when I briefly inquired. It was a very reasonable number but it was right after I had gotten all the exhaust and maintenance work done so I wasn't ready to spend more at that time and forgot.

    Best combination for a 599 GTB
    - GTO grille
    - GTO wheels
    - Fabio's 6-1 headers

    When repairing the shrinked leather, nice chance to install good loudspeakers.

    To what car do you change ?
    F12 ?

    @gleek
    what belts ???

    Your car is spectacular and I’d buy this in a heartbeat if I were in an “add to the stable” cycle. Good luck with the sale!

    Bring a trailer prices would be an indication as to why. Cars in much better condition with half the miles are selling for less.

    I sent you a private message. Has the car been tuned for Fabio's race cats? Any issue with startup?

    Wow I did NOT get the notification for a lot of these messages. Sorry to those I didn't respond to right away

    Unsure what you're considering as the "major service". 2 year service includes hydraulic servo-control pump and alternator control belts. That was done May 2020. Ferrari inspected for sale in 2021. I had all the fluids defined by the 3 year service done earlier this year.

    Yeah I have my eyes on an F12 for the next one although the 812 is starting win me over lately. Your 812 looks so good.

    Replied. No tune needed. Startup is perfect.
