    Wow, that's a shame, to lose one of the few non-F1 Fiorano edition 355's.

    Gear stick seems shorter than usual. Is this the case on this model ?

    I have #19. It's normal length. Must be the camera angle or due to the crash. Mine snapped off a few years ago. That sucked being at a stop light with just a little nub. Shift gently my friends.

    I hope #19 is enjoying more miles than #20 did. A shame that the latter traveled < 4K miles in ~ 12 years.


    Yikes, must be all of those aggressively enjoyed miles! :D

    She's got a healthy 21K. Runs perfect. It's cooling down as I type.....

    So I really wonder what the story is now.

    Did the car spin out annd go into a pole backwards?

    Or did it catch fire at a high speed and cause a spin ending in hitting a pole?

    Hmmm.

    Sold for $10,500 to someone in Cali. on approval. Means that the seller may or may not approve the bid price. They may counteroffer on the sale price and ask for more.
    Not a bad price but was not worth any more than what it went for. Specially towing another $900 to Cali.

    Indeed, a rather "pole shaped intrusion" thru the gas tank area there......sad to see.
