    I think this car spent most of its life in CA.

    It was featured on the cover and in an article in Forza magazine on 348 vs 355.

    It's nice that it has the factory shields and sport seats. Seems like a reasonable price.

    That car was listed on cars.com on the west coast recently for 59k or there about. I called about it, and shared some emails with the owner.

    It's now local to me. If anyone is really interested, send me a PM and I can go take a look.

    I went to take a look at the GTS at Ferrari of Atlanta today.
    It's a nice car. Paint is good, as is the interior. New seat covers and handbrake leather. Sticky parts refinished and dash leather is in good shape.
    I don't know anything about the service history, but at a 105k ask, it will be very interesting to see where it ends up.

    No not at all. Porsches don't really attract me. And a close neighbour has one.

    Never did me, until I drove one for a while. No, they are not Ferrairs, not exotic, but as sports cars they are way better.

    For me a car I use only in summer time has to be a complete piece of art to MY eyes. I enjoy it as much when parked as when driving. The Porsche is unquestionnably one of the best if not THE best driving machine but the visual impact is not there for me.

    And I already have my german car, the SMART :D

    All of us are here at the table with "luxury supercars" 355, 930, 360, xyz, ....

    For me it is often difficult to decide which Porsche to take out? yes life can have it's moments.

    Our 930 cab rocks but also does our 1970 Dodge Power Wagon original paint no rust

    I still hope for the day a 355 is part of our collection. Pure Italian, plain and simple

    Hey John,

    I'm pretty sure you and I met a few years back outside the Tri-Main building.....

    It was raining pretty hard, I was leaving and you were coming in wearing a Ferrari Hat. we started chatting and you said you are a Porsche guy but wanted a Ferrari. I think you had a green car with you - can't recall if it was a Porsche or some other older car...

    I've got a 95 Berlinetta coming for sale soon - shot me an email if you want to take a ride down to see it :)

    dave.lelonek@**********.com

    Thanks.

    I have to disagree wholeheartedly. I have owned some great Porsches: 996 Carrera 4, 930 Turbo, and the holy grail of 911s, the 1973 Carrera RS. They are exceptional cars on a variety of levels but not one is good of a sports car as its corresponding Ferrari peer.

    I would not take any of them over any of the Ferraris in my stable and I would never take a 930 over a 355.

    Totally agree. I have owned 15+ Porsches including every 911 series until 996. While a 911, for instance, is a great jack-of-all-trades car and may likely be the car in my garage if I can only own one car; good thing I don't have to make that decision. Otherwise, I would be making compromises on space/practicality of a realistic 4-seater/daily driver, ultimate sportiness of a Ferrari, and balance of a proper race car. To each their own.

    Well there's been the one on EBay for a while with 26k miles for $120k with no takers then there have been a couple that have set records. I guess it just depends on the small details of the car itself and how much you personally like it.

    I have a friend who is trying to figure out the market value of his 355F1 Fiorano
    13K miles. Well maintained. Any thoughts?

    From what I have seen, the highest after market price yet recorded for a non challenge f355 was a Fiorano sold at auction last year. Gooding and Co.

    1999 Ferrari F355 Spider Serie Fiorano | Gooding & Company

    I would advise your friend to call the auction houses

    Sounds like there's a few to choose from. I'd guess the real value for a Fiorano is around 80-90k at most.
