2003 Ferrari Enzo is for sale

March 1, 2023 Francis Mitterrand

At the 2002 Paris Motor Show Ferrari unveiled the successor to the 288 GTO, F40 and F50, the Ferrari Enzo. The plan was to produce only 399 examples with the majority finished in Roso Corssa, Giallo Modena, Nero Pastello and Rosso Scuderia. However, only nine cars were finished in the Argento Nürburgring 101/C color, and one of them, the 2003 Ferrari Enzo is for sale.

This timeless car was delivered new to Japan and was never registered for the road. With almost intact factory protective packaging (plastic on the door sills, tape wrapped around the ignition key, and even plastic covering on the brake and gas pedals), it is an ideal opportunity for collectors.

It is equipped with a carbon fiber and aluminum chassis, carbon composite body panels by Ken Okuyama and carbon ceramic disc brakes. A rare and desirable hypercar that would take a place in any collection and worthy of Enzo Ferrari’s name.

Ferrari Enzo is powered by a 6.0-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine with 651 hp (485 kW) and 485 lb-ft (657 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed ‘F1’ Graziano automated manual gearbox. It reaches 60 mph in 3.14 seconds with a top speed of 221 mph (355 km/h). Since it has not been used on the road, it has only 227 kilometers (141 miles) on the odometer.

The car comes with original owner’s manuals, car cover, spare key (still enclosed in a Ziploc bag alongside the manuals) and factory three-piece fitted luggage set which has never been unwrapped.

The auction will take place 15 – 17 March 2023. Offered without reserve.

February 26, 2023 Francis Mitterrand

In 1992, Ferrari introduced a replacement for the front-engine 412 as the company’s V12-powered four-seater, the Ferrari 456 GT (Grand Tourer). It was designed by Pietro Camardella at Pininfarina. It was produced until 1997, and less than 2,000 cars left the production lines. One of them, a 1995 Ferrari 456 GT is up for auction.

Ferrari 456 GT is powered by a 5.5-liter F116 V12 engine with 436 hp (325 kW) and 406 lb-ft (550 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. It reaches 60 mph in 4.8 seconds with a top speed of 192 mph (309 km/h). It is mounted on 17″ five-spoke silver alloy wheels wrapped in 255/45 front and 285/40 rear Nitto NT555 G2 tires.

This car is finished in Verde Inglese, and has minor paint damage. It is equipped with a Tubi-style exhaust system, pop-up headlights, fog lights, self-adjusting shocks, self-leveling rear suspension, Ferrari-branded four-piston brake calipers over ventilated rotors at each corner.

The seats are upholstered in tan Connolly leather, which covers the door panels, the lower part of the dashboard and the center console. Minor damage can be seen on the door panels, passenger seat and armrest, and the pedal cover from the accelerator is also missing. Additional equipment includes power-adjustable front seats, a gated shifter, a CD stereo, automatic climate control, and embossed cavallino rampante logos on the headrests. The clock shows 20,182 miles.

The car has a clean Carfax report that shows no accidents or other damage. It comes with manufacturer’s literature, a tool kit, and a Florida title in the seller’s name.

The auction ends on March 3rd and the current highest bid is $66,000 USD.

In 1967, Ferrari unveiled a luxury car and the successor to the 330 GT 2+2, the Ferrari 365 GT 2+2. The car was produced until 1971, and 800 units left the production line. One of them, a 1970 Ferrari 365 GT 2+2, is up for auction.

This 4,974 mm long and 1,786 mm wide car is finished in metallic blue and recently underwent a mechanical refurbishment. It is equipped with split front bumpers with integrated turn signals, rear bumper over-riders, a door-mounted driver-side mirror, and quad exhaust outlets.

Inside, the seats are covered in tan leather that also covers the door panels. Black leather covers the dashboard, central console and sills. In front of the driver is a wood-spoke steering wheel. Additional equipment includes front and rear shoulder belts, a Pininfarina radio blanking plate, power windows, and air conditioning. The clock reads 46,638 miles.

Under the hood is an overhauled 4.4L V12 engine with 315 hp (235 kW) and 268 lb-ft (363 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual transmission (restored). It reaches 60 mph in 7.1 seconds with a top speed of 152 mph (245 km/h). It is mounted on Borrani wire wheels wrapped in 215/70VR15 Michelin XWX tires.

During the overhaul, the replacement of the cylinder liners, pistons, connecting rods, bearings, crankshaft oil-passage plugs, timing chain, camshafts, and valve guides was performed as well as the installation of hardened valve seats. Also, honing of the cylinders, relining of the cylinder head, welding repairs of one of the combustion chambers and overflow valves were done, and the triple Weber carburetors, manifolds, alternator, starter and water pump were rebuilt.

The car comes with partial invoices from the refurbishment, a tool kit, a jack, and a clean California title.
