    Good evening dear all

    This is my initial step in selling my 355. Next step will be Ebay. So here it is.
    1997, Red/Tan spider, 26k miles, new clutch, CF door seals, 19" HREs with 80% tire thread and 85% brakes, Manual top, neuvolari muffler, aftermarket ceram coated headers/cant tell made by whom but good quality, major was done in 2009 at 21k miles, comes with black key and red newer style key, one fob, books, subwoofer, oem red cover, tool box, tire inflator, euro turn signals, challenge grill, 1" paint chip on the rear bumper, lots of service receipts for small and moderate stuff.

    Why was it salvaged

    Run over an object that bent the left front support piece right behind the back bolt of the lower arm. Picture included fixed and rustproofed, 4" gash on the drivers foot area, pictured, gas tank ruptured but replaced with a good used unit, support plate was also damaged in front of the gas tank / removed, straightened and welded back in place.

    Drives and pulls well. PPIs are welcomed but will only do it at the buyer's expense.

    Price $ 46,000.00 Firm or $ 60,000.00 OBO :)

    If you have any questions, please dont be shy.

    Question about the front trunk ?
    The front half has a black box like object with two long narrow screens on top.
    The material looks stock, but I have not seen that before.
    .....mine does not have it.

    I don't get the price. Why say 60k OBO when you've told everyone your bottom line is 46k? Or maybe the 60k is just a joke and I'm taking it too literally. It's bizarre if it's not though, as nobody would offer anything above 46k since that's obviously your advertised firm number. Anyways, good luck with the sale.

    do you have solid confirmation of mileage? interior condition suggests more mileage to me but its also a Spyder so not out of the question could look like this with only 25K.

    thanks - great opportunity for someone to own a driver f355 that

    Questions:

    1) Are you able to elaborate on what you ran over that transmitted structural damage to the frame? Did a Ferrari-approved shop do the fix, and is it confirmed within spec? The gap on the driver side valence looks a bit off (maybe just the angle?).

    2) What was included in the major svc 5000mi ago? Have the valve guides been redone yet?

    3) Are the original wheels included?

    4) Was this originally a US or import car? Asking based on the clear lenses.

    Thanks in advance for your time.

    See Below

    1. The PO had the incident, not me. I am the one who fixed the damages and those who know me also know that I have been rebuilding only those cars I think are road worthy. There is nothing to be in or out of spec since the damages were not "structural" and I "" it since brackets can be looked at as structural. In any case, the work has been done to hold even better than before. The frame was not damaged. It was the tub, the front support bracket and rear support plate. The valance could be a jacking issue from before. THere is no damage in that area on the bottom.

    2. Have to check the paperwork. Not sure if valve guides were done.

    3. No, If you need OEM wheels, I can install speedline chrome with new tires and will take this ones off.

    4. Its a US car with replacement lenses.

    Thank you, Steve. I have a close friend in Chicago who's been looking for an "affordable driver" 355 as his first Ferrari to play with. I passed this along to him.

    Conversion to 'manual' roof is a plus for this car as well, in my opinion.

    Just to update...

    I did relay this 355 to my friend. Unfortunately, and to my dismay, he is holding out for a different car.

    Good luck with the sale!
