This Ferrari 348 got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1990 Ferrari 348 TS shows 28k miles and is powered by a 3.4-liter DOHC V8 paired with a dogleg five-speed manual transaxle. Finished in Blu Sera over blue leather upholstery, the car is equipped with a removable roof panel, 17″ five-spoke alloy wheels, retractable headlights, a limited-slip differential, a gated shifter, power windows and locks, and an aftermarket audio system consisting of an Alpine head unit and amplifier along with JL Audio speakers. A 2018 engine-out service included a valve adjustment in addition to replacing the timing belts, coolant hoses, engine seals and gaskets, fuel and air filters, water pump, thermostat, spark plugs, air conditioning belt, timing belt tensioner bearings, alternator, and battery. This 348 is said to have been previously owned by Jazz musician Miles Davis and is now offered by the selling dealer in Illinois with partial service records, a factory tool kit, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title.

The design of the 348 was overseen by Pininfarina chief stylist Leonardo Fioravanti and was the final V8-powered Ferrari model developed under the direction of Enzo Ferrari. This example is finished in Blu Sera with black lower-body panels and features a removable black roof panel, pop-up headlights, fog lights, side air intakes, louvered taillights, and quad exhaust outlets. The front end is believed to have been repainted during prior ownership, and paint measure readings are provided in the gallery below.

The 17″ five-spoke alloy wheels are mounted with Continental ExtremeContact tires measuring 215/50 in the front and 255/45 at the rear. Stopping power is provided by anti-lock disc brakes with Ferrari-branded calipers over ventilated rotors at all four corners.

The bucket seats are upholstered in blue leather and are joined by a color-coordinated lower dashboard, carpets, and door panels. An Alpine head unit is linked to JL Audio speakers and an Alpine amplifier, and additional equipment includes a dogleg-pattern gated shifter, a heated rear window, and power windows and door locks. The air conditioning control unit on the dash works intermittently, various interior surfaces and buttons are sticky to the touch, leather shrinkage is located on the driver’s door panel, and wear is visible on the driver’s seat.
