    That would be # 81/100, Red/Cream - is he/she an FChatter?

    It is #81 indeed.
    I do not know if the seller is a Fchatter.

    Does anybody have an exact list of the engine specs of the car?
    I have read several reviews and power goes from 310 to 312 or 320.
    Even more confusing, my owner's manual seems to be a generic 348 manual and is listing the regular car's 300bhp as power.

    Beautiful.

    I have the same seats. Yes, they are snug as a bug. :)

    I really thought it was 81, based on my research. Will look at the plate on the car tomorrow.
    What is your source?

    I'm #71.

    I have the same Kevlar seats. Been thinking of getting them re-done, but I have that "orangy-tan" and can't find a close match to them so I don't have to redo all the leather in the car.

    Already swapped the seat backs side to side to save the bolster wear. The passenger seat bottom has some shrinkage to it. Leatherique is bringing it back a bit but it's gonna to stretch at least an inch in both directions.

    I am sure you have a Fibrenew franchisee in your area.
    I had the entire leather including the seats of my 575 literally brought back to new condition for $150. He did some work also on my wife's Z4 and did a perfect match with the original BMW red leather.
    I am going to do the same for the 348. It will be trickier because some work needs to be done where the leather meets the CF.

    Thanks for the tip on Fibrenew.. amazingly enough, they don't have anyone in Maryland. There is one is PA which is sort of close. I'll contact them.

    I do have a local guy coming to look at the car tomorrow... we'll see what he says.

    Thanks for the tip.

    I think the market is speaking for a 348 SS in the condition described by the OP. BTW, this is the car that I've been looking at.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ferrari-348-TS-Speciale-Meticulously-Maintained-/261152958883?item=261152958883&ViewItem=&ssPageName=ADME:B:WNA:US:1123&forcev4exp=true#ht_1171wt_1182

    Auction is over in about an hour. If it doesn't move much from here, it will close at roughly the same price that the previous auction for this car closed at.

    This is #59. AceMaster, it's the one that I said I was considering.

    That is greg's car in Chicago. He checked out my car before I bought it sight unseen. Aside from me, he is probably the 2nd most anal guy ive ever met. He took over 40 pics of things that bugged him about my car and we chatted on the phone for 45 mins about it. Id never met him and at the time he wasnt selling his car.

    Plus hes the central states Ferrari club muckity muck and a fellow fchatter.

    Had I not made the deal I made on my car, his was next on my list.

    Of course, do your due diligence and get a ppi ... but id trust him with what he tells you about the car.
