Actually, Im looking for a driven car! I dont want to buy some Ferrari with 1k miles on it  I dont mind about tiny little dings or rock chips. I plan to use my F-car as an almost daily driver...While keeping it very well maintained in tip top condition | ||

Jordan also remember that european cars are usually driven make that DRIVEN as intended,they are not generally as pampered as most cars here,so wear and tear may be a bit higher but having said that cars that are driven regularly tend to run much much better than sheltered garage queens. just mah .02 | ||

In that case --Im still new to this -- how hard is it to buy in Europe and import to the US? I live in California so I know the emissions would be a problem. What are the steps to get a Euro spec car legal for the US? I know Ive seen some European specification cars for sale at dealers in the US so there must be a way! If a 355 can go for that price, I can't imagine how low I can get my 328! | ||

I supposed it must be a LHD one as you normally pay 15-20% less in UK for a LHD import car. You could also get a 94 355 at around $60K in Hong Kong (RHD) at the cheapest. I reckoned 2nd hand F-cars are quite exepnsive in USA as compare to Europe and HK | ||

I went to ferrariads.com for the first time a minute ago and noticed a 355 in the UK for $55k USD? It is on the first page of 6/8 cylinder models. Am I missing something? Was there a mistake in the currency calculations? Or is this the lowest priced 355 I have ever seen? I need some expert opinions |
