Ferrai execs are outraged about this...because if anyone is going to exploit the dead body of their founder for profit, it’s going to be them dammit.

“ Pretty sure that’s a Ferruccio, Dude.”
“which is buried in an above-ground family tomb”
Goddammit!!!! I said “steal A Ferrari” What the hell am I supposed to do with this?
Get over it, Ferrucio.
I’ve heard of people trying to make a Ferrari clone, but I’m pretty sure even Corporate Concepts would say this goes a little too far..
Sergio wants to display it at a new Ferrari store in Vegas. $20 a head. And this way to the giftshop, ladies and gentlemen. Don’t forget your “I partied with Enzo in Vegas!” t-shirts.
I think I know what vehicle they used to try to get in to the tomb
It is said that old Ferrari bodies are unique, with no two being exactly alike. I can see why this one would be particularly valuable.

Why you’d want to import one is beyond me, though, as all the things that made it the right answer in its native European habitat back then (small footprint…
Yes! However, I can wait awhile longer and get a 2000 or newer model with the 1.2L 16 valve four, as well as airbags and more body-color trim. And maybe an Avantime while I’m at it.
that is the happiest damn car i’ve ever seen
Date of introduction is almost 25 years ago. Spring of 1993 I believe, although it might’ve been earlier in France. So wait 1.5-2 years and you can start importing.
