    My yellow car, 1 of 13 348ts Challenge cars, found a new home today. Tim (SoCal1) is the lucky new owner of the car. It has just over 8000mi on it. During my ownership, I performed a complete belt service including Hill bearings, valve adjustment, accessory belts, rebuilt clutch, rebuilt steering rack, and many minor items. Tim has receipts now. I'm glad it stayed in the brotherhood. I'll miss it, but the restoration of the tree car necessitates that something had to go.

    That's a pretty car. Congrats Tim. I'm partial to Yellow - which is great on 348's and 355's. Cant wait to see them all together.

    Took it for a spin, a little more effort to steer while parking for sure but what a blast to drive.

    I have 2 355's also. The 348 although the same chassis seems like a total different animal. Great contrast between the 2 models I did not expect

    How do they compare?

    Is the 348 slightly rawer and more edgy/nervous?
