    That's definitely his car, but I thought he wanted "as close to 50K as possible." So, I'm not sure why the Buy it Now is where it is. Maybe someone is just using his pics...

    He told me he was thinking of selling during his recent trip to CA. He's a great guy and I'm sure the car is too.

    Hello Guys,

    One of the reasons that I love this site is because we really are like a family. I knew that I was going to come into work this morning and see some unhappy reactions to me putting my car up for sale. Unfortunately, it has to be done. I am planning on moving to Southern Cali within the next few months and I've been racking my brain trying to figure out how I could possibly bring it with me. The truth is that I have been financing the car and my payment might as well be a mortgage. Although I could comfortably cover the payment and all maintenance with my current income, I don't yet know what I'll be doing out West and I didn't want to be burdened with unecessarily heavy expenses while making the move. I love the car more than most people know and I will be very sad to see it go. It has been a life-long dream come true to have a 328 and I'm proud to be able to have done it on my own. Now I need to sacrifice so that I can do something else that is a life-long dream of mine: to get out of NJ! I like to look at my departure from F-car ownership this way; I did it once and I'll do it again. Again, thanks to all who are supporting my decision. Hopefully I'll be back behind the wheel soon!

    Regards,
    Augustine

    Gus man..........! Come on! Don't sell that car. Look at my profile that car is sick. Why are u selling it on Ebay anyway? Wouldn't it be easier to advertise it in the paper?

    Gus,
    I'm sure you'll have another F-car soon. I know how hard this must be. best of luck with the move. Southern California is a great place.

    Erik,

    Trust me, I don't want to do it. I put it on eBay because, whether I sell it through the auction or not, the exposure alone is worth the fee.

    Gus- you will have another Ferrari period (no question). Well, a good thing is you'll be in CA where there seems to be the pick of the litter for Ferraris!

    You are correct- if the car doesn't actually sell on ebay, its use as an advertising medium (i.e. people contact you after the auction is over, or during the auction and say they will look at the car to puchase face to face) is quite valuable. It's the modern day classifeds! I contacted a seller after an auction ended & then looked at his car. Didn't wind up buying that one, but point is I made the contact via ebay.

    Good luck with the sale, and see you soon-
    Andrew

    You MUST see this car in person, the pics, nice as they are, do not do the car justice. If I was not in the middle of some other moves right now, I would go for it in a minute. It is a great car..at LEAST as nice as described.

    AUGDOG - Brother, sorry to see you parting with your Ferrari. She is breathtakingly (is that an actual word??) beautiful in that color. Absolutley exquisite. If I had the room in my life for it right now, I'd be on my way down to Atlantic City with cash.
    Before you move out west to La La land (sorry So Cal F-Chatters... You guys rock too!!!), your east coast compadres want to send you off with a party... Details to follow...
    And whenever you find yourself on the east coast in need of some Ferrari speed therapy, know that you'll have mine available 24/7/365.

    Hi Azzuro,

    we feel with you! Not easy to find such a rare combo again.
    F-chatters should pick up this 328, please?

    keep posting

    Good luck Augustine on your planned move.
    I am hoping to be heading in that direction, too (although not necessarily in SoCal), in the near future. I understand the cost of living, or rather EVERYTHING in California is expensive (but probably WORTH it). That's why although I'm keeping my 328, I've postponed buying a newer FCar
    so as not be in a financial quandary.

    Okay guys, here's the deal. I need to get out of this car soon so that I can seriously begin planning my move. I have an outlet to get the car sold in two weeks but it isn't the method I'd prefer. If anyone has any interest in my car, or if anyone knows anyone who does, now is the time to act. I would prefer to sell this car to someone that I know will appreciate it like a fellow F-chatter. If I don't sell it to someone within the next two weeks though I will go the other route. Please let me know if anyone has an interest in the car and I will share with them whatever they need. Thanks!

    -Augustine

    Strange I notice the airboxes on that 512TR are black, what year is it? My friends '92 has silver boxes, I keep trying to talk him into painting the Ferrari insignia black but he won't go for it! LOL
