    The only figure I have corrected thus far on the "Master List" is for 330 GTS. [Total production of 37 amended to 100]

    Participation is encouraged to no end, including dropping facts just as you have been.

    I figure the best way for a Moderator to abridge the list itself is for knowledgeable contributors to copy/paste the original data in question, and make corrections as you go along, as such;

    INCORRECT
    330 GTS
    Production started: 1966.
    Production ended: 1968.
    Total production: 37, one RHD.
    First serial number: 7835.
    Last serial number: 11713.

    CORRECT
    330 GTS
    Production started: 1966.
    Production ended: 1968.
    Total production: 100, one RHD.
    First serial number: 7835.
    Last serial number: 11713.

    This will provide;
    One updated list
    Easy method for backtracking and updating corrections as we go along
    Allow the original unabridged version to be "virtually" available

    So Thomas, as corrections and additions are made, you're modifying the original post with the new information...?

    I'm sorry to hear that you missed one; friends and business transactions don't often mix well. But at least you've got your blue GTC - you should post pictures, I'd love to see it.

    Sweet, thank you. Know anything else, like the transmission type, options throughout the car, city/state/country of ownership...?

    Can you tell me anything about these two cars...?

    John, that's fantastic, thank you for clarifying that. I'll have to sit down when I have some time and go through all of that and see how much can be proven and/or verified.

    Jonathan, thank you for the updates and the additional information. Do you have more details on 83136...? Exterior/interior color, L/RHD, mileage, ownership history, etc.
    Also, thank you for differentiating between Maranello Concessionaires' numbers of UK RHD and total world RHD; MC is a source from whom I derive much of my information. Thank you.

    How come the earliest cars are such a high proportion of RHD?

    What bucket do the 32 348 challenge cars produced in 1994 fall into? The GTB/GTS numbers, or are they extra? Also isn't there some number of competizione 348s like 50 or so? see here:

    That's a great question - hopefully someone else can tell us.

    There are 50 348 GTCs, eight of which are RHD.

    Red with cream interior. New to Switzerland = LHD. Last seen (on UK plates) at Maranello/Fiorano for the 60 Anni.

    A couple of reasons: Early on Ferrari sold to fewer markets and a higher proportion of them were RHD (Sweden, for example, is now a LHD market). Also many of the early racing cars were RHD because the majority of racing circuits run clockwise and it was therefore better to have the weight of the driver on the inside for the majority of corners.

    Nine of the 348 GTCs are RHD.

    Carbon has not included Challenge cars in his list. Note, incidentally, that there are/were more than 32 348 Challenge cars. The 32 numbered cars were for the US.

    Jonathan...

    I plan to make a separate thread that will include all competition cars, from sport prototypes to Formula One to Challenge cars and everything else in between. But I really want to get this thread sorted out first. I posted this thread in the Vintage section hoping to get some assistance with engine types and creators (i.e., Columbo, Lampredi, etc.). Perhaps you can fill in some of that information for us.

    Carbon,

    It wasn't a criticism, rather just a statement for clarity.

    Slightly off topic, but...

    Some while back the UK Ferrari Owners' Club, of which I am a member, had a little piece in their news magazine about transferring their old register of cars to a new database. I sent a little note to the Club Sec saying that as I was in computing maybe I could help. 5 years on I'm now a sad anorak gathering together all these pieces of Ferrari information, sorting, filtering, verifying and updating the UK Club's Register. Not, I hasten to add, by myself. So, not business to answer your question.

    I didn't think you were criticizing at all - in fact, your help, accurate information, assistance, and tremendous contributions to this thread are very welcomed. I just wanted you to know why I excluded Challenge cars and made this a road car-only thread. This way, now that you know that I plan to start another thread, you can help with that one, too. :D

    I have another question, is there any particular reason why there are no total production figures for the GTS Turbo and 575 but there are for all the other models?

    Awesome...! Thank you, Jonathan...!

    Yes - because I have no idea. :D
    I heard that Ferrari made about 2,000 575Ms, but I couldn't verify it. I knew it was less than the total amount of 550s, but by how much was a discrepancy I couldn't simply assume. As for the 208s,, GTBs and GTSes, and Turbos, those cars were made strictly for the Italian market, so production figures have been vague; hopefully someone knows and we can now reveal this information publicly.

    Believe you may have inadvertently copied the production numbers from the Series I PF cabriolet into the Series II listing. Total production seems to have been two prototypes plus two runs of a hundred cars each, making for a total of 202, rather than the 41 that seems to be listed.

    Nice effort - thanks!

    Question, are there VIN boundaries by model year documented somewhere? This would be very helpful in my task of maintaining the 348 registry. For example someone put Vin 095651 as a 1992 car, but I have lots of 1993 cars that have a lower VIN in the registry. Sorry for the stupid question but VINs are sequential right? If so it should be possible to say vin XXXXX last of model year 1989, vin YYYYY last of model year 1990 etc.

    I'd love to have that!

    Thanks

    Carbon,
    You forgot 212 Exports. Export & Inter numbers debatable, as some inters believed to be exports.
    1) 212 Exports
    Production started: 1951.
    Production ended: 1952.
    Total production: 27, all RHD.
    First serial number: 0070M.
    Last serial number: 0182ED.

    Lusso RHD 23

    F40, 5 RHD models made for the Sultan of Brunei.

    F50 some RHD models made for the Sultan of Brunei (3 I think)

    Hope this helps.

    Warren.
