    That's exactly why I need to move further north. It was 90 today and the sun was blazing hot. Too hot for Feb, for me.

    I am down in Greenwood.....not too far from you. You should compromise between the 348 and the 360.....355!

    I like the 355, but its got a different list of issues and I look at things a bit differently than most. With the 348 I know i can do all the work on my own, i really appreciate simple cars that are raw. The 360 is just sexy, id prefere a gated manual as I still havnt seen post that are certain the xlaunch 432 pro can do all thats needed with the F1 transmission. Ive got my eye on two at the moment, waiting on the right car and deal to happen. Im still looking hard at the white 348 tb on ebay, its even the same color combo as my porsche.

    I agree with you on the gated manual. I have done a good bit of my own work on the 355. Mostly just sorting out various issues. Since then, its been pretty much predictable. Getting ready to do the annual service pretty soon. Due for an engine out in a year or two. I will probably tackle it myself, with the help of Fchat. When I starting researching the 355, I was leaning away until I came across this forum and saw a couple of detailed threads on DIY timing belts. Hope you can strike a deal!

    keep me in mind if I get one ill most likely be buying a lift that can go up a couple feet. with what Ive seen If I get the type that my neighbor has and use larger blocks, the engine out shouldnt be to bad and also be safe. Ive seen the video of a guy using two floor jacks and that kinda freaks me out with the angle, ect. I found a blue 1990 ts on ebay today with white leather, sexy as hell and at least its a targa though I prefere a TB for rigidity. I like to go up to brevard, rosman and the parkway sometimes and drive it like I stole it! If your ever heading that way during the week let me know the cayman loves those roads.
