When is Classiche not Classiche? Please Ferrari, help.

Absolutely, they should and I am, in a private email exchange that is on-going. I will update the thread once I hear back.

They didn’t represent the car as having the original exhaust and the picture of the engine in the listing comprised a Tubi. But at the same time they clearly stated on the ad (which is cached on the net still and which I have a screenshot) the car “comes complete with Ferrari Classiche”. Which was true in early 2014, except it was technically void at the time of the sale in early 2015, because by that time the exhausts had been switched. The same dealer arranged the Classiche and the sale.

 

Nope. The Tubis are better. But I would keep the oem exhaust system safe so that I can make future decisions about my car safe in the knowledge others (dealers or individuals) can’t.

My F40 now has the superb X-OST straight pipes (which massively enhances its character) but given my experience its oem box sits safely wrapped up, dry and locked away.

 

Good. Thanks Joe. Maybe shining a little light on an ambiguous situation that can be abused, will help.

 

Thanks.
