This 1992 Ferrari 348 ts is in the classic Rosso Corsa with Tan and has less than 28k miles.
The 348, badged 348 ts (Targa) features a normally aspirated 3.4-litre version of the quad-cam, four-valve-per-cylinder V8 engine. As with its predecessors, the model number was derived from this configuration, with the first two digits being the displacement and the third being the number of cylinders.
The engine, which produced 300 hp (224 kW), was mounted longitudinally and coupled to a transverse manual gearbox. This was a significant change for Ferrari, with most previous small Ferraris using a transverse engine with longitudinal transmission. The "T" in the model name 348 tb and ts refers to the transverse position of the gearbox.
Overall 4,230 of the 348 ts were produced over a period of approx. four years. Power was bumped to 375HP at an impressive 8,250 rpm thanks to sophisticated mechanicals such as titanium rods, an 11:1 compression ratio, a Bosch Motornic M5.2 engine management system and a dry-sump oiling system.
This car has been with the current owner since 2008.
Sold new in California (believed to be Ferrari of Los Gatos) and has been a California car since new.
The motor is 100% in stock configuration and running perfectly. Gearbox and clutch are as designed as are the brakes and suspension.
This Ferrari has been used on a very limited basis and when not in use has been kept in excellent preserved condition from top to bottom.
Clutch replaced in 2009 at 26,690 miles. Currently due for a belt service.
Excellent paint with no accident history. This car is free of any exterior imperfections. No accidents. A clear Carfax report posted. Paint is nearly all factory original. Some higher meter reading on the lower hood but only slightly.
Interior also reflects the care of the ownership. No sun damage or excessive use in any way. Leather is supple, dash is excellent as are the carpets and headliner.
Matching Michelin tires recently replaced on perfect Factory wheels.
The books (no service booklet) with leather pouch, complete tool kit, air canister, and spare keys with remotes will all be presented to the new owner.
A really excellent example of a low mileage, unmodified Ferrari 348 ts.
