    If you look at the maintenance costs, it’s a lot more than just a car.

    No it's not. It's still just a car.

    You can pay $500 for an O2 sensor repair at a repair shop or buy one on Amazon for $82 and do it yourself because 'it really is just a car'.

    Can't do that on your airplane unless you are a certified A&P mechanic....now that would be more than a car.

    But they put that o2 sensor pinned right up into the frame member to make it extra painful :D

    All I know is I should have purchased on 5 years ago when I was on the fence, now I have to pay 25% more!

    I do however just think it's going to get worse from here so I'm actively on the hunt!

    At the rate the market is going, we might have to consider converting 348's into 355's :p

    Well the “body” is worth the effort, but the “guts” will never be the same. The glorious 5 valve heads and shaft linkage gated 6 speed are pretty much the best parts.

    Don't ruin a 348 with your power steering, electronic dampers, and boring interior. :)

    When I sold my 348 Spyder and went to a 355, I never looked back :)

    Seat belts alone is enough for me!

    '89s don't have that problem, and euro cars are all eligible for import.

    Hahaha. Been there! :)

    You laugh, but I did the engine swaps, Knots2U fairings, and some other crap to my old Piper Seneca back in the day.

    I dropped off the cores and picked up the new engines at the Yellow Freight terminal with my pick up.

    The A&P mechanic was a friend and he also handled the fleet of planes for a charter operation I was connected with and he " supervised the work".

    Agreed. ^ Especially after seeing a 1991 Cadillac sell for 70k on BAT the other day :eek:

    I'm surprised the RAC 98 Berlinetta hasn't sold or, didn't bring more bids on BAT.

    Maybe I'm missing something but if it -IS- because of F1, I think the delta between it and a gated car is too great?

    Has to be easier/less expensive/more available parts to convert a 355 from F1 to banger if you so desire. (compared to the newer cars that many seem to be doing)

    Unless there's just so much cash flying around now nobody wants to be bothered with that :D
