Cool... (y) Ferrari's in general are overinflated to own for the average guy, sounds like the owner guy paid a bit too much. i have heard of people with high end cars buying a clutch kit online from gte engineering.com from anyware $1.500 - $1.700 bucks that's using the latest & greatest Kevlar friction material VS ferraris organic oem clutch.

I worked nights at a gas station in Westport CT. My boss loved me and I had permission from one of the mechanics to raid his toolbox. I'd call my boss and have him leave the bays unlocked so I could work on my car. The place would be dead from 11:30-12:00 to 5:00am so I'd hit the work order rack and anything interesting that didn't need brakes or tranny work I'd nab the keys and go blitzing around the block a couple times. One night I came blasting into the lot in a 911 and there was a Ferrari at the pump. I pulled up across from him sat for a couple minutes then yelled "He's probably drunk and barfing in the bathroom." Then I took off, drove around for a few and when I got back he was gone. Yay.
Best thing I drove from there weirdly enough was a 70s Jeep CJ with a 350 Chevy under the hood. Middle of a blizzard and I was out in the middle of the intersection in 6 inches of snow doing insane donuts.
