    Hey guys, Was wondering if anyone knew anything about the 98 355 for sale at Intersport Auto Sales in VA. The dealer says the car is from FL, doesn't know anything about the previous 2 owner's. It has 14K miles with the 15K major done this past July. They have lost the keys so it can't be test driven for about two weeks. Any info on this car is greatly appreciated.

    Sorry about that, Rookie mistake. I don't believe that they have a website but the car is on cars.com

    Steve, Had a buddy looking at that car about a month ago and he passed on it. I will try to give him a call and find out why. I am positive it was the same car...

    I would appreciate that. I find it hard to believe that a dealership looses the keys to a Ferrari!

    Also the salesman said that a guy flew in yesterday from Utah to buy it but since he couldn't test drive it he left.

    This car was really rough. It has some major damage to the front spoiler. It was also never serviced other than the guy changing the oil himself. No books, one set of keys and took a long time to warm up. The list goes on and on. The interior was very rough, but the paint was nice since it was just repainted. There is a reason this guy is selling it so cheap. This car is not worth a dollar over 70K. It will need a 30K service, at the least, and I'm sure some other things past that to work out the rough engine.
    Most likely when cars have only one key and no books or tools, they were stolen and recovered or a repo.

    I work for a dealership. Trust me, salesmen lose car keys with alarming regularity. I once had them ask me to make a set of keys for a Caddy XLR. The car had been on the lot for only three hours! Didn't take them long to "misplace" them!
