Some cool new multimedia systems for your old Ferrari.

So honestly this is one of those theoretical vs practical situations.

Yes, you can theoretically swap it into an early car...but to what end?

Honestly I can count the number of times I used the radio in my old 328 on my fingers...that after ~18 years of owning and many wonderful miles.

With my current 512TR, I had planned on a custom adapted 599 single DIN unit. After my first drive I realized I was never going to turn the radio on..

A best audio system is a quality exhaust.

And may I be so bold to offer an alternative way to channel your enthusiasm. Starting the in the Luca-era Ferrari really started to expand the options available on their cars. Take the time to figure out which factory options, wheels, trims, (and color!) etc are most appealing. The options are vast compared with the late Enzo-era cars.

 

I’ll second that. The only times I have turned on the radio in either the 328 or the 430 for several years have been when I was at Daytona. They have a radio broadcast of the track PA system. So in wet or cold weather we can sit in the car, grab a sandwich from the cooler, warm up a bit and listen to the race broadcast on the radio. Also, when we are arriving or leaving during the Rolex 24 for instance, we can tune in and hear what’s going on while we line up to get through the tunnel and get to our parking spot.

I don’t need a fancy system with a big screen in order to do that.

 

Thanks for the info, otherwise I wouldn’t have know about it. It’s good to know your options.
