    Up for sale is my well cared for low mileage 1994 348. The car was purchased new at Newport Imports in September of 1993 and at the time a Clifford alarm was installed that is still working. I have paperwork for a major service performed by Virtuoso performance in April of 2007 at 11,280. I purchased the car in June of 2011 and had Virtuoso compete a comprehensive PPI and a car fax on the car prior to purchase - I can forward to interested buyers. I had Nick Forza Ferrari in Washington do a complete major including a new clutch, all belts, hoses, bearings etc in May of 2012. The car has been serviced (oil change and check up) in October of 2013 and 2014. I put a new Optima battery in the car in June of 2014. Everything works, all of the sticky has been removed, the previous owner installed fender shields, aluminum pedals, passenger foot rest and a 6 DC player with an Ipod hook up. Other than those items, the car is completely stock. It runs great, all gauges are working properly, the automatic belts are working properly there are no issues with the car that I am aware of other than the typical rock chips from being driven. I do my best to drive the car at least once a month for at least 20 miles. I have put about 5000 miles on the car since I bought it and have had no issues with it at all. S/N 097186 asking $49,500 USD including car cover and trickle charger. I have photos of the engine out service and electronic copies of the PPI, Car Fax and invoice for major service for anyone interested. All keys, tools, books and manuals are present.

    Sorry about that, the car is located near Vancouver BC and the car currently has 17,033 miles on it, but I do drive it and there will probably be more on it as we are having great driving weather here. Thanks for your interest.

    Hi Guys, thanks for the comments; the car is in Canada. You can tell by my second post including a 'sorry' eh? The car is a US car, I have copies of the California registration and the smog passes before I bought it. I am about an hour north of the Blaine border crossing in Washington State. I am happy to do what I can to help ship the car, or even meet an interested buyer in Blaine / Bellingham if that helps. I was out with the car yesterday and one flaw I didn't mention is that the foam engine cover heat protector falls down on a regular basis, it will stick back up, but it really needs to be replaced or removed. I had it re-glued last year, but it didn't hold up.

    I bought the car out of California, so I can't see there being an issue going back. The car is registered in British Columbia and I have collector plates on the car here. As noted earlier I have copies of the California registration and copies of smog passes. I don't know about getting it into California, but all I had to do here is get an inspection from the province it was pretty basic stuff.

    If the car has been in the states already then you should have no problem bringing it back--likely no duties either. I repatriated a 400i--no duties, no problem. I took the train to Vancouver and drove it home.

    If this car was a silver on red coupe I'd be up there with a check in hand baby! :)

    Agreed. Black is definitely the best color imo for this model.

    I thought I would try some aftermarket wheels, my wife likes it better than the stock wheels, I'm not sure. The wheels don't go with the car, but it does give the car a modern look.

    Now is the the time to get these cars? Just like the 308 and 328's, these will soon start to appreciate. We will be saying "I remember when these were $50k all day long".

    Beautiful car and best wishes to a great sale.

    By the way, what make and sizes are the aftermarket wheels? The style is a perfect match for the 348.

    I can't remember the brand of the wheels, but they are 19" wheels, the tires are Hankook. I should have the invoice somewhere, but I wasn't able to locate it last night to confirm the brand of wheel. I think they look great on the car. Lots of interest in the car all of a sudden, so we'll see if I can post a 'pending' by the weekend. Thanks Ferrari Chat!!
