I still don't think that this is that bad to do to a modern car. I'm not gonna suggest you do it all day long, but it's not like this car is no good now.

I think if i ever rented one i would probably abuse it, but not that bad. I know all of you are saying that would be sacrilege, but when its not your clutch or $300 a peice rear tires, its probably different. I would never do anything to any of my friends cars that i wouldnt do to my own though.

You are now finding out why all these low mileage Ferrari's advertised for sale have had clutches replaced. DUH!

I must confess--it's my grandma driving her 355.

Fix it again, Tony (F.I.A.T.) Its a same to see that happen. I hope someone gets the vin of this 335c & finds more on the service history.

It will be nice to know the VIN number to stay away from it when looking for a yellow 355 Spyder.

I know who owns it...it's some kid that wears a bunch of gold chains and drives like he owns the whole world. I see the car about once a month. It gets thrashed pretty hard.

I did 70 mph burnouts on the track at the top of the hill where the rear end would get light.

Result ? Turned the main transmission shaft into a swizzle stick, $2000+ to repair, not doing that again

Isn't that just the "Italian tune up" that I hear mentioned so frequently regarding cars that are running poorly?

Looks like the I-90 tunnel - is this a Seattle Ferrari? Who's "smokin' in the boy's room"? - Come on - fess up!

That 355 could do that all day. I have some great videos on a cd of them doing donuts out on Fiorano with an F50, 355s, etc.

I dont know if you guys saw this one yet. It;s some guys in what im guessing is a rental car smoking the tires. I wouldnt even do this in a ferrari, its disrespectful. I would save that kind of behavior for my friend;s camaro which loves itand was built for it.
