Today we fix all the issues for dirt cheap! Is this the best supercar value under 75k? We total all the costs to sort out this budget Ferrari at the end!

DO. NOT. WRAP. :)
Satin ppf
And if you do wrap,You’re an idiot😂,shiii clean ashhhh
Leave it as is. Looks amazing in metalic black.
With red calibers go along with it too 😊
It may not be a battery thing with the roof. We had a California and roof issues, and when we charged the battery over night it would work, but fail at a later point, then charge the battery and it would work again. The real issue turned out to be a faulty position sensor, which is extremely sensitive about the voltage, which is why charging the battery seemed to fix the problem. I would guess that you have a faulty position sensor in the roof mechanism, which is a fixable problem
Car looks perfect. No need to wrap of change a thing. Drive it a bit and flip it. You have more than enough cars and this is a win.
The Ferrari California is a super beautiful and elegant car. Completely underrated!
Need to do a garage tour soon to see whats still around and what might be new in there as well!
Sticky buttons are a problem on older Benz’s too. Especially the 2010-2013 S class. I used to work for Mercedes and I saw it all the time.
I don’t think I would ever get into car flipping, but I really enjoy your content. As far as the wrap goes, I would only go that route to offer the paint protection.
Great car, good job on correcting all the stuff, don't cheap out now, fix the tire sensors, any buyer is not going to feel comfortable as it is
Wouldnt be a jr garage vid without a good oil change 👍🏻
I love the frugal side of Jeffrey!
It's mind blowing how many low quality bits are on a Ferrari
Yuppp crazy for a $200k car
Compare to most of the other luxury sport cars. Let's talk about the low quality bits in the competitors. Porsche has them, McLaren has them, Aston Martin has them, Lamborghini has them, etc...
@@Isalei84I own two Porshe 911s one is 30yo the other 10yo. No poor quality parts in them, I have no issues mechanically either 🤷
Junk
It's a FIAT with V8 l,what do you expect
Been a long time waiting for this. But it looks incredible.
Don't do anything else too it.
Enjoy it and when a buyer offers you the right money let her go.
Brilliant turn around.
Great work guys. Hope you guys make a killing on this one.
Ferrari is looking great. The black metallic is very sharp looking, and I agree, keeping those wheels was a smart choice.
in case anyone needs to know ...IF you get the dreaded transmission DCT light it will cost around $17k to rebuild (parts and labor) San Diego rates.
Didn’t you guys forgot the oil filter 😅
People from Iowa are pretty real and honest and yeah I grew up there. Great video! Any interest in Corvettes?
Great attitude on money and remaining frugal. I grew up modestly on a farm. Did well in business and retired well off. The key is to work, maximize income and live below your means. Easy peasy. I see all these people trying to look rich and famous while racking up debt. Learn to love life without all the show off stuff and you'll be free.
thats a great mindset and i enjoy the videos and the other channel fr keep going and great
You guys deserve all the best !
Greetings from Brazil !
The California turned out great! Can't wait to see what you guys are buying next
Looks fantastic, dont change anything. Absolutely beautiful!
I wanted to ask you at the Dynocomp meet about all the issues, $53k purchase price is crazy
Unreal!! I got to this video 14 min after it posted! the Ferrari is awesome!
Cars are very personal, and it may be a generational thing but I prefer silver wheels with black paint. Lovely car😀
Amazing value you guys did a great job bringing it back to life.
Do Not Wrap!! Normally I'd say "ugh, a black Ferrari?" but after seeing the final result (seriously, the top down shot at the end is iPhone wallpaper material!) all I can say is WOW 🤩
Good progress on the cheap
I was flipping low end cars in the 60-80s and did pretty well... not a lot of money but was a decent second income.
Another awesome video! Pls never stop
I seen this at the Dynocomp Party saturday. The video does no justice to just how nice and clean this car is.
Black wheels, metallic sparkle and red accents, amazing pick up
There is an old saying in the UK ' Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves.' After all why throw money away when there is no need to.
you can use wd40 to remove the sticky,...... i cleaned a sticky notebook last week..... one hell of a job......., the car is looking great!!!!
Joe-CT 10/10 Top Tip re Battery/Roof Issue!
Amazing restoration, your Ferrari looks brand new! 🚗
This honestly just needs suspension and exhaust… Deff a 🌶️ spec 🔥 !
I say no wrap… love the color! 😀
Congratulations on another win. Looks great don't wrap it!
beautiful car - good work, let us know when on market! Very interested.
I LOVE your shows.😊😊 What you do is awesome. You are wonderful examples of financialy minded young men. And hell ya I would buy that car.😅😅😅
what a transformation, well done
No wrap! The car is awesome the way it is.
One of the best ferraris ever. Alot better then new turbo modern nonsense
Lemon ammonia also works well on sticky buttons
Miss you guys!!!.... I need my Boxster fix...soon!!😉✌️👍👍
Looks amazing, you have really luck to buy a cheap Ferrari, unbelievable for such a exspensive car, the sticky buttons, i love the vlog !
Always impressive 👏 👌
Those carbon wheel center caps are expensive option lol 😅
Looks great in black.
What actually is that sticky crap on the interior?
Been watching u guys since high school times… Should keep uploading regularly 😢
as it ages i think the OG cali gets better looking minus the odd exhust pipes.
Love it, but the oilchange was amateurnight! Hope cleanup is on the agenda.....😊
Great val for money car. So underrated… I think it’s a super car !
The famous brothers salute big Dawgs, 💯
i have same sticky parts inside the car and i hate it, nothing seems to work, i will give it one more try with that alcohol you used. The black looks real good on this Ferrari. hi5
That alcohol doesnt really help. Sticks less but feels and looks really cheap, i tried it on my car too before buying new buttons
try orange cleaner
@@Marin-i1v Have had the sticky buttons on a maserati. I've tried all of the remedies, citrus cleaner, guitar fret board cleaner/polish, alcohol swabs, face wash, acetone etc. Of all of the remedies, the one that has worked amazingly is simply a dilution of borax in water. 10x as easy as all of the above
99% Isopropyl Alcohol ,and a plastic scalpel blade.
Acetone did the trick for me. Use gloves!
Wouldn’t it have made sense to put continentals on the rear to match the front?
Love you guys and your content ❤
Please drop atleast 1 video in a week❣️
3 more coming soon :)
Please drop it ASAP
Love from India guys❤🤗
3 more coming soon :)
@@JRGaragenice LFG 🎉
I see you're saving money on hair cuts too😂. Now you can afford a new battery 😁👍
the first ferarris were open top front engine race cars , so you can say it is a real ferarri
Love Ferraris but you need to bring more Porsches, like a 997? Those aren’t sticky . Great show btw
How can we look at all the cars you have for sale? Do you guys have a website or something? Where do you list them?
I want one of those so bad. Hardtop convertible. Room for my wheelchair and affordable! NEED!!!
Very nice...love the color....don't wrap it
Hey, I think you should send a t-shirt or something to the viewer who made the comment in re charging the battery and trying the roof again. I think they earned a little swag!
How much did you pay for this car? I’m in the market to get one. Any suggestions on which one I should get? Thanks.
Can't you use rubbing alcohol to help with the sticky stuff?
Wow nice! How did it not have a bunch of rock chips on the front bumper and hood? Did it have Ppf ?
Beautiful car! Drive and enjoy!
You guys Fr need to make more videos
This is true
Trust i tried every product magic sponge and methylated spirits works the best and i own a maserati so i know all about sticky buttons everything else they put that coating on.
The blue SVJ from the back looks insane
love this video bro
Car is awesome leave it the way it is and enjoy it
I'm prolly the minority here but I actually like the front engine Ferraris. Never really thought the Cali was a great car but as I get older, I think it's got a classic look to it. Would I have done what you did? Most likely not because I too value the dollar and have an issue with spending cash on big ticket items. I look forward to seeing it run around Scottsdale soon.
This is huge. Great car but it needs real love to bring back its youth.
KISS principle. Euro cars and fully charged batteries. It’s a thing.
Have a link to window switch plastic cover decal thing? I need one for my California
Just search eBay, from china I think it’s actually like $20. You can buy all three, but you really just need one it sounds like. I think you have to put a few dots of superglue on it to hold it down.
Hello you should get 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class Coupe for a alternative car.
if only i could polish my knob to that black shine,what a knob i would have
Missing your posts. Thanks.
She’s a keeper❤
Not the cheapest in the country. We got a 2010 Red/Black (daytona seats and carbon interior bits) with 28k miles for $50k clean title. Those 458 wheels are definitely a game changer for the California.
HI BOSS YOU ARE VERY Lucky man wow beautiful Ferrari congratulations
NOT buying 4 matching tires is def a choice
Wondering what are your resources for selling cars. This will probably only go for $50k at most on bring a trailer.
Love it in black!
That’s awesome 👏
With some of your profits you should buy a bigger oil drain pan.
Why dont you buy one of those old time concave type oil drain pans?
True
Is this still for sale? Please send the link to buy
Jrgarage33@gmail.com shoot us an email
Simply epic 🤩
Wear some gloves when you clean sticky buttons.
Looks great as is.
That car is beau ti ful!!
Amazing wheels
Ceramic coating outside is wild lol
Ferrari California roof works exactly like the VW Eos 😅😅😅
Fun fact. Discount tire owns tire rack.
Absolutely beautiful 👍
