"Stolen Ferrari From Spain Found in Sharon
By HILDA MUÑOZ | The Hartford Courant

A 1958 Ferrari reported stolen in Spain 15 years ago was recovered by state police in Sharon (Connecticut State Police)



SHARON - A rare Ferrari reported stolen in Spain 15 years ago was recovered by state police in Sharon on Thursday.

The 1958 Ferrari 250 PF, valued at between $4 million and $5 million by exotic car enthusiasts, was registered in 1994 in New Jersey under a false Vehicle Identification Number,

The vehicle was involved in multipe paper sales and transfers over several years in New Jersey. In 2000, the car was sold for $550,000 to an unsuspecting buyer in Sharon who added it to his collection of exotic vehicles, state police said.

The original owner reported the car stolen in 1993, but never accepted the insurance claim. He believed the Ferrari was so rare and valuable that it would eventually turn up, state police said."


Moral of the story... sometimes cops actually do theyre jobs... even if it takes 15 yrs.  


91 MR-2 Turbo 5-spd

So who got the car? It would suck for the guy who bought it for $550,000 just to have it taken away.
