Jim, NO, I did not buy this car. However, I am getting on the 360 replacement list from the same people this week. I love this car, but it is a consignment car. They want $139,500 for this car and do not want to budge from this price. I have seen other 355 Spiders in the range of $90,000 to $100,000, maybe there are other good ones even lower. So I have problems justifying the price. So I am looking for a fun Ferrari to use almost as a daily driver until the replacement becomes available probably in 3 to 6 years. When the replacement becomes available will keep the first Ferrari since it will be a well maintained, high milage Ferrari. Because of the thread about brochures, I asked for a 360 Spider Brochure. Got it without hesitation even though it looked like they only had 2 copies of it. | ||

What's wrong with living in a trailer park? Nobody seems to mind my 360 on blocks out front. Besides, gives the stray dogs a place to get put of the sun. | ||

I think those wheels look terrible. From little I have seen, the stock wheels are hard to beat. Now I have seen 348s with 355 wheels and that looks really good! | ||

Hugh, Point taken! If I could live in a trailor park with those vehicles present, then I request a double-wide immediately!  | ||

John, If in fact the wheels are out of a trailer park; it's probably as 'posh' as they come. | ||

The 360 looks like it has the barchetta wheels on it. They make them optional for both the 550 and the 360 for about a year now, maybe a little more. 355s are awesome, they're the best built and designed Ferrari ever, and I too like their exhaust note the most out of any newer Ferrari. | ||

I love those wheels or maybe its the picture, but the back end seems to look slightly wider than normal. Much more agressive looking and I love that. | ||

Is it me, or do those rims look straight out of the trailor park? Nothing wrong with aftermarker wheels. They just seem to detract from overall sleekness of the 355. | ||

Dave: Those are kinesis wheels, forget the namesake model code, but definatly not OEM. Good position to be in 348 v. TR v. 355; personally, I think the 355 sounds the best out of all three. | ||

That's one sharp ride. ;) The 360 next to it isn't half bad either. Gotta love those cars. I saw a yellow F355 a few days ago. They still sound magical... | ||

I do not normally like black cars, but I loved this one. I found the F1 on this car to be easier to use than the F1 on the Red 360 I tried. Are these wheels common? I thought they really looked sharp against the black.  Tired of looking at Ferraris:  |
