I had a Ferrari, 1981 400I 5-speed, they are fun, look good, tons of liner power, and they make ruf 930 turbos look cheap to maintain.
That car bled me of money. I had to finally let go, even though it was hurting me the whole time I loved it. If you drive Ferraris they cost a lot of money. That is probably why most Ferraris have so little miles on them.
I put over 25,000 miles on mine and it cost me.
Porsche are like a wife and Ferrari's are a mistress.
Ferrari recommends and engine out "Service" at 40,000 miles to change the timing chains and install all new guides and valves, and rebuild the water pump, since you have to remove the engine to remove the water pump anyway. I waited till 52,000 miles and wore a groove in the timing chest because of such a sloppy chain.
The aluminm 12 weighed more than a BBC and even though it was a wet sump it held 17 quarts of oil.
