robhuting's 1988 Ferrari 456 GTA

Rate this vehicle

My second collector vehicle. It was a short lived pleasure. The car is absolutely fantastic. Very fast,easy to drive, comfortable on long journeys. We took it to Reims, Brittany, Amsterdam, Cologne, loads of fun.

Then I moved to the US for my new job and shipped it to Atlanta early 2008. The US DOT informed me that to clear customs, I had to make $100,000 of modifications. (More then the car is worth.) So apparently this car is safe enough to do 290+ kmh in Germany, but not safe enough to go 70 mph on I-75. Go figure.

So it has been shipped back to Belgium and is currently for sale at the Ferrari dealer in Antwerp. Too bad, so sad....

The Horse has now officially been traded in for a pool in the back yard. Given that the USA Department Of Transportation, in collusion with Ferrari North America made it impossible to import the car.
