Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Fwd: Ferrari Classiche

[Grahame Reinthal (grahame]

My thinking is that if currently there are 81,000 Ferraris aged 20 years or older, of which 14,000 are known to Ferrari and around 6,000 already certified, that means there are 67,000 Ferraris aged 20 years or older NOT known to Ferrari. Maybe a few thousand of these have gone to the happy hunting ground for dead Ferraris (via Rutlands and the like), but that's still a lot a machines that are out there in the wild, being looked after by (shock, horror) OTHERS! I think that might be the sticking point. In effect, Ferrari's strategy could be to segment the maintenance and repair market and attempt to create an "us/better/more valuable" versus "them/not so good/less valuable" situation.

Cheers,

I’m reading ENZO magazine #6. Article on Ferrari Classiche:

Luca di Montezemolo started the program in 2007.
They have 23 people restoring about 85 cars a year to their original period specification. Cars must be at least 20 years old to be accepted in the program. Every 24 months you must renew your Certification to be able to keep it official.
There are 66 certification centres worldwide.

From the article: “….currently there are 81,000 Ferraris aged 20 years or older, of which 14,000 are known to Ferrari and around 6,000 already certified”.

Other articles: 456 vs 612, 365 GTC/4 vs 365 GTB/4 (Daytona), etc.
I got the whole series (6 magazines) and it’s pretty good. Comes out every 3 months.
