Thanks, Rob. It is a nice driver of a car - not pristine - and a 1995 to boot. I plan to see just how reliable the 355 is and drive it to work, for groceries and so on. It seems to have been properly cared for, has the 30K service and I plan to treat it like a car, not a shrine.

It sure is gorgeous.

many times the om is poorly translated into english and/or procedures have been modified slightly, so it is always better to double check

Ferrari has done this for years. That is why you get the tool kit too. Though everyone is afraid to use them and get them scratched! :-)

I just bought a 355 after poring over many posts on this board. Thanks for the input, but there happens to be apretty decent existing resource:

Is it just me or did everyone's owners manual contain detailed instructions and pictures on how to do this and bleed brakes, change brake pads, bleed the clutch and much more? The best DIY owner's manual I've ever seen and in a lovely leather satchel.

When all else fails, read the instructions ;-)
