Mvice8489 Posted May 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 Thanks. I have seen that car listed for sale for quite some time now. Just not a big fan at all of the interior. It looks absolutely nothing like the Miami Vice car On the inside 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mvice8489 Posted May 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 I will definitely post more pictures soon. I dropped it off at the mechanic yesterday because I am having him look things over for me. It has stock exhaust and I am considering putting a Capristo exhaust upgrade on the car 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Mvice8489, I know everyone is talking about the cars, and congratulations on your purchase, but I also took notice of the home behind this corvette photo. Is it yours? I'm a big architecture fan and was wondering about its age. It looks to be Tudor Revival, maybe from the 20's or 30's, but I can't see enough to know for sure.

Will look through my photos on my phone Cool, thanks. No pressure. I'm just a big architectural geek, I guess you would call it. I created a 3D model of the 42 Star Island house from "Little Prince" that was torn down a few years ago. I have made many other models based on historical homes as well. There was a discussion about it all on one of the location threads and a link to that model. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mvice8489 Posted June 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 Scot- 5 days after I received the car I brought it to a local Ferrari mechanic and the car has been sitting out there since. That is because we ordered a Capristo sport exhaust. It takes a few weeks to arrive from Germany and it FINALLY arrived on Friday. So hopefully I will have the car back early this week. I will keep everyone posted! https://capristoexhaust.com/product-category/ferrari/ferrari-512-testarossa/ Check this video out and really pay attention to when he discusses aftermarket exhaust systems around the 2 minutes 20 second mark of the clip This will help u understand why I let it sit out there so long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
