The 1985 Ferrari Testarossa: before you buy
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 1985 Ferrari Testarossa; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Here is what to know about the 1985 Ferrari Testarossa before buying one.
What to check on the Testarossa
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year.
Under the hood
The 4.9L 12-cylinder with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
A combined rating of 21.4 L/100 km works out to about 64 litres per 300 km. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $33.17. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$6,100 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
A good match for
It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.
Practical details
Low and compact, it is a car for the drive more than the cargo.
A longer test drive
Drive the Testarossa on your commute before you commit to it. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A test week in the Testarossa tells you more than any review.
Which one to look for
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
Running costs
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $331.70 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$6,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
