It's just a myth... More or less. First of all, there are four thumb screws to take off the top of the airbox. Then there are 16 tiny (8mm if I recall correctly) nuts holding the velocity stacks on (And therefore the bottom of the airbox). In order to synchronize the Webers, it's about 45-minutes to remove the…
I own and operate a carbureted 308 and I couldn't agree more!
If this 348 has been properly serviced, the 80K miles shouldn't be much of an issue. Every Ferrari should be purchased after a Ferrari specialist has given a thorough PPI (Pre-Purchase Inspection) at the cost to the buyer. Sure, this can be $300-$500, but for a $25K+ car that lives with the threat of a $25K engine…
No victim; No crime.
As an enthusiast of the marque, I must say that you're 100% correct. The F60 is ultra-rare, ultra-exclusive, and ultra-expensive... And simply awful. Even the N.A.R.T. paint scheme can't save it. For two-and-a-half million bucks, I'd have a 250GT Lusso.
I learned to ride off-road on an R1200GS Adventure, both self-taught and through an official BMW off-road program. There's no substitute for solid fundamentals. Good luck!
Excellent article! I've been riding a big adventure bike for 5 years now (45K miles) and I think that most of your observations are spot-on. However, I disagree with leaving the electronic aids on. On loose surfaces, you may want wheel-spin to keep your momentum up. Conversely, you may want/need to skid your rear…

Funny, I was just telling the "Jaguar diamond that Christian Klein lost at Monaco" story the other day. Nice!
Man, this is the one car that I'd buy if I had the funds. It represents the best of the 1970's Ferrari/Lancia. Epic, simply epic!
Enough with the f$&@ing Miatas.
Looks like Robby shaking down the Gordini.
Sure... Ford wants to compete twenty-one-fuckin'-years later. Cool story, bro. Tell it again.

No. Matra V12.
Stunning? No, it isn't. Although it's a pretty epic car, we are in the 10th production year of a car that hasn't really been refreshed or redesigned. It's like an expensive GM-era Saab. Booooooooooooooooooring.
Epic! I just saw this story on BBC World News, and said the exact same thing... It's almost like getting suspended for skipping school.
No victim, no crime.
Great piece! I've got a carbureted GTS, and it is pretty amazing... Yes, some parts are priced at a ridiculous level, but they are dead-reliable if used regularly and properly serviced. Don't believe any of the negative hype. 1) I'm 6'2" and I fit in the car just fine. 2) Every 5 years, the "Major" engine…
