Bingo. It is the ugliest thing yet to wear Ferrari badges. IMHO a real disgrace to the marque. I bet you could fall asleep driving the Rover, too But I kind of see what you're trying to say.
Guys, sorry, tell me: What car in 1989-1994 was better than the 348 in the same segment? The most pointed is the NSX (titanium piston rods, aluminum frame, etc)... very nice techniques.... but this imply the car is better? Surely more reliable, confortable, etc, not sure if we discuss on the driving. I am aware of just 1 real test: 24h of Le Mans 1994 .... Ferrari: 4th NSX: 6th, 7th, 9th..... If it was such a disaster vs the other.... how it came that?
Camillo has a point boys. But to tackle the question, it's because Prince Alfonso spent a few million to get the car ready for the race. Especially when you factor in the crew, testing, transportation, spare parts, etcetera.
sadly ............ 'reliability' is the default argument of many 348 owners .......... never mind performance ...... there is a difference between propaganda and reality ...................... when your 348 sounds as good as this 355 ......... I 'may' believe it .............. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ts50AXdWTcY&feature=channel
Saw this on the F1 section, it's a discussion on potentially new F1 teams and thought that it was funny Check out line # 2 Also... as for other brands in VW Group's armament: Volkswagen - well, their GTi models are pretty good, but aren't really in the same sort of sporting pedigree as Ferrari (unless you're as bad a driver as LdM) and I can't see F1 participation adding a lot of prestige to that marque either. Audi - heck, they've seen how the return on investment didn't pan out well for BMW. No way. Bentley - not really, this is more a luxury marque. Bugatti - possibly, but there are no recently-designed 'supercar' sports cars that need to be shifted on mass. F1 participation is hardly going to boost the 'hypercar' Veyron sales. Lamborghini - this could help. But they seem to be doing just fine without it. It's risky if they do poorly against the likes of McLaren and Ferrari. SEAT - cheap and cheerful... can't see it really. Skoda - already advertised in rallying. Don't see a move into F1.
.................... being an honorary brotherhood member .......... I hereby deem said tactic null and void ................ .......... Sy if this video of a fellow limey doesn't make you realize how awesome the 355 is ...... not even that 348 lemans motor will help you ........ .............. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ts50A...eature=channel
Which makes the result even better, specially since the NSX came 8th overall .... so, there you have it
Uh oh... "The URL contained a malformed video ID." Could we try that link again please, Oz? All the best, Andrew.
THAT IS SICK!! reminds me this AMAZING almost unbeatable noise: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKUobz9iZ_g Oscar
+355 ........ far to many are wasting their lives away ...... not allowing themselves to experience ....... how incredibly awesome the almighty 355 ..... truly is .............. Now go vote on my new poll in the non model specific section : http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=261067
U-u-uhhhh... *appreciative shudder* Nice. Still - those do both have aftermarket exhaust systems so it's not exactly a 'pure' Ferrari sound. I've heard some amazing sounding 348s as well - Oz, I think you actually recorded posted videos of the 348s I'm thinking of. All the best, Andrew.
Do you mean this nero 348SS ??? http://www.metacafe.com/watch/2373567/custom_ferrari_348_hi_flow_exhaust_hand_crafted_by_gothspeed/ +355 ............ .... is your 348 a challenge 'replica' ? ............. lol .................. you know which 355 it is ........
