    I'm selling my 1999 F355 F1 Spider...

    TdF/Cuoio

    30,500 miles

    Every single thing on this car has been replaced from the headers, cats, exhaust, brakes, top works perfectly and was just flushed and calibrated in Oct 2010, tons of cosmetic replacements, Robbie has done all the sticky parts--hell, I've even got a brand-new 360 F1 pump installed by FoS. Major done in 2009.

    She is getting her annual (ALL FLUIDS REPLACED) April 9, and a fresh detail.

    Why...you ask??? Mom wants a second business location and has found one that is very inexpensive and she asked if I wanted to be a partner. And...since I'm moving to Arizona I figured why not. Also, I want to travel more while I'm still young and I can't afford to travel all the time anymore and own this car.

    I'll make an ad very soon, but I just wanted to throw this out there for anyone looking for a car that is ready to go and not in need of thousands of dollars in repairs.

    I would much rather this go to an FCHatter than a random stranger as my ownership has been documented since Day One. I also have the entire service history records of the vehicle.

    So...I guess we're going to see what this market is....and I still have to figure out what I want to get from her.

    All ad-work will be done soon.

    You car appears to need nothing and is ready to go as you stated. As such if it were mine I would list it at $66K.

    I personally have a black 355 spider with half the miles and in similar condition and this is where I would start if I were selling my car.

    What were thinking as to a price your 355? Sorry to be nosy :eek:)

    Sorry to see you go Brock. You sold me my missing owners manual on eBay and you introduced me to fchat. Hugely greatful for that. Good luck with your future endeavors and I'm sure that gorgeous 355 will bring you some good coin.

    Haven't gotten there yet....but it's going to be a bit less than $66k....:cool:

    I come to Arizona often. But I will be moving there next. Depending on how my boss continues to treat me, it could be by this summer....or 5 years from now....

    Arizona is my next and final home. I will definitely let you know next time I'm there! My momma lives there and I just love her so much! :)

    This is going to be my new signature very very soon.....;)

    :p

    ROFLMAO!

    :D

    LoL....funny, Tim! :p

    I'm not going anywhere. I'm moving sometime, yes....but as long as I have the Internet I will continue to post my innane ramblings and BLAMPEEisms to annoy the masses! :p

    (and my exotic car ownership won't be done forever once the 355 is gone....;))

    Me too. :(

    I am pretty sad about this whole thing. One of my major character flaws is that I inject too much emotion into things.....probably going to shed a tear when she leaves for her new home.


    I want to sell it to a fellow FChatter so I can continue to see her life.....I know this all sounds like a madman talking....but this is the most expensive thing I have ever purchased and she instilled a passion into my soul like nothing ever has--well, nothing except house+trance music; Nothing will ever top that music for my soul........:rolleyes:


    Word. :cool:

    Dave, I'm looking forward to seeing you, buddy. :)


    The ad is almost completed. I'm tired as hell so I will finish it tomorrow....but I have all of the itemized lines done with services/parts dates+prices.

    I am only listing it on Fchat for sale. The car has been documented with everything in my posts....I have nothing to hide and want someone to feel confident in their purchase. :)

    You're car is gorgeous (of course I say this b/c it is very close in color to my own)

    I had to laugh about your desire to sell within F-chat in order to keep an eye on her life...

    Sounds alot like an "open adoption" :-D

    If I had the money right now I would be all over that car. Blue/tan combo is my favorite. I guess the interior is a little darker than tan, but hey, close enough. Oh well, timing is everything. Good luck on the sale.
