Please note that Ferrari still made the 348 Spider when they were also building the F355 Berlinetta and F355 GTS. When the F355 Spider arrived, they stopped with the 348 Spider. F355s have serialnumbers starting from (approximately) s/n 98674. |

Is your complete VIN ZFFUA43B000099659? This is correct for a Euro 348 Spider. See my website: http://www.red-headed.com/vin.html. What does Keith Bluemel's book say about the serialnumber of the last 348 Spider?? I don't have it at home right now .... Anyway, as far as I know the last VIN of a 348 Spider is between 99935 (confirmed as 348 Spider) and 99947 (probably last 348 made). I hope this helps a little bit ..... Grtx, Edvar

I think r is right, not sure about k or U, sounds like a diff model , doesn't the forth digit refer to model. I.e u is normally 308 four valve? |
