In this riveting episode of Hoovies Garage, our host embarks on a thrilling journey with the iconic 1989 Ferrari Tester Roa in a Miami Vice spec, a car that symbolizes the epitome of '80s automotive extravagance. With a tale of past ownership woes and a fiery Ferrari 355 incident, Hoovies dives headfirst into the world of affordable Tester Roa ownership, reminiscing about the Miami Vice lifestyle that once graced his presence. Despite the car's initial allure, unforeseen titling issues led to a premature parting, leaving our host yearning for another shot at Tester Roa glory.

As the episode unfolds, viewers are treated to a detailed exploration of the Tester Roa's unique design elements, including its distinctive side strikes that set it apart from its Lamborghini counterpart. The car's history as a neglected gem in the automotive world is highlighted, shedding light on the once-plentiful but now appreciating nature of these Italian stallions.

Amidst the glamour of the Tester Roa's exterior lies a host of quirks and challenges, from a shrinking dashboard to non-functional air conditioning, revealing the true character beneath the glossy surface. A visit to the renowned car wizard uncovers a hidden secret lurking beneath the Ferrari's sleek bodywork - corrosion in the framework, a testament to the car's Northeastern roots. Despite its flaws, the Tester Roa's allure remains undeniable, beckoning Hoovies and viewers alike to embrace the thrill of owning a piece of automotive history, Battle Scars and all.
