1985 Ferrari Testarossa Additional Info:
O.J. Simpson's famous red Ferrari. The car speaks for itself. Original low miles.
Original "Juices" personalized license plate is included!
Comes with a copy of the original California registration that shows the owner of the car as "Simpson O J Enterprises Inc" with the Vin number and O J's signature (date of issue 2/2/86). The car was manufactured in May 1985. The car also has original Sherwood Country Club sticker on window. Extra's that OJ had installed are still in place including Audiovox car phone, and after market stereo with Bazooka speakers. An associated press article (which I have a copy of also) talks about O.J. putting the car up for auction in Feb of 1996. This is also the car that O.J. talked about breaking the law, speeding at 170 MPH in the famous 1989 David Letterman interview, which can be found on youtube by searching for "OJ simpson david letterman"
Great car, unbelievable to drive. Minor wear and tear on the car, but overall looks great! All four rims have curb rash courtesy of the original owner. Power windows roll up and down slow, a common occurrence in this model. Air conditioning works great. Does not have tools or manual.
I have owned this car since 1997 when I bought it at Barrett-Jackson. I had the 20,000 mile service done at 19,120. Service records available for the time I have had the car.
