And I think my 60hp PETROL car is quite quick. Still though, I can carry 4 people, just enough luggage, use A/C at the same time and still get 45-50ish MPG.

Now Porsche has taken care of me by extending my warranty and giving a credit for future service, but when my dealership seemingly drive through and asteroid field and returned my car with 5-6 new rick chips in the front, they gave me another $5k. Such a crazy experience. I owned a Panamera for several years before and it was/is fantastic.. pretty bummed about the whole experience.

I asked the owner if he checked for a bad ground and he said he had taken it to two different shops and they couldn't fix it. I bought it cheap and trailered it home. While doing basic trouble shooting, I found the ground from the battery to the body was corroded. I cleaned it up and the car has run great ever since.

I has 25 seasons of SCCA autocross and time trials in Southern California (so year round) with four season championships. Rebuilt the engine at 135K. Plenty fast and so much cheaper to keep. My engine rebuild cost less than a belt Service on the 348, and I can out run it on course.

      As I watched this, hearing about the cracked casting aluminum block, I thought: How could Honda (motorcycles) make VFRs that could do 500,000 miles with an engine that could do 11,500 RPM, yet a company like Ferrari has such catastrophic issues? Having had three Volvos all over 220K, and the current one at 170K, no wonder Ferrari ownership has never been for me.

    I mean, if you’re buying a cheap 348, the best thing to do is to fix it yourself. Yeah it might tank the resale value a bit, but it still saves you a lot of money. They’re not particularly complicated cars, you just have to have the time and space to work on them. Parts are still a little pricey but you’ll save a fortune on labor costs.

Tell the new owner that as it's opening, if he reaches directly above your head and feel for that little bar and just lightly push it backwards as the top is going down it should complete the whole cycle without issue. There are elastic straps in the canvas that are supposed to pull that back as it's being lowered, but they stretch over time and don't pull that bar back, resulting in the top getting "stuck" where it did in the video. Common problem that he can google as well.

    I think the only reason they recommend you replace the timing belt so often is because these are high revving engines driven by people who will do nothing but rev the heck out of them all day. They're basically the same belts you'd find in your average Civic or Camry. If you drove it like one of them, you could probably safely drive a Ferrari for 10 years or 80,000 miles before servicing the timing belt. If you drove a Civic like how you drive a Ferrari it would cost you allot in service every year too.
