    Radio, what's that???
    I'm not even sure if I have it... Ohh wait I do I have one. That's that thing that ruins the orchestra behind me and makes me miss shift points.

    What exhaust on your 355? Mine is pretty quiet when the valve is closed so I could listen to the radio if it's internal amp wasn't shorted out :)

    Actually, the difference is that in a GT3 you want to listen to the stereo. In a 355, you don't. ;)

    Listenening to a 355 in full harmony is blissful! The Porsche is nice but you cannot compare the sound.

    before you all go beating up on the GT3 too much, the big difference is the GT3 is an honest 185MPH car in which everything just works. The 355 is a sweet sounding car that has a boat load of problems. There are at least 2 threads right now on F1 355 trouble.

    I enjoy driving GT3s but have no desire to own one. I could say the same about a flappy paddle car. :)

    996 GT3 owner: still don't know how the radio works! Don't need a radio in any car.
    Fabspeed exhaust with race-cats are doing well, and yes!!!!! It runs fine whenever I want to drive it! Always!
    No issues after a year of ownership, just replaced oil (Motul 300V…..other thread ;) ), no cells, it just goes as hell!
    Porsche sound is just different from Ferrari-sound, that's all. But I must admit: the F355 has one of the best engine noise ever produced by any car! Except for the Alfa Romeo 155 DTM: that sound is from the GODS!

    Things to do: RS-clutch, and the Fabspeed is the one without the X-section, so this will be modified.

    I have a GNG bypass on my 2007 GT3
    It sounds really good but not like my 355 does. No comparison.

    The logo should say, "Tuned by Tenors".
