    Been looking for one forever, but they always seem to go for pretty "good" money, given they are UT and/or Hotwheels... But tonight, I was surfing ebay and stumbled upon a red, F355 Berlinetta (Hotwheels) for $29.99 - I'm pretty stoked... add that in with what Santa is bringing me and I think it's going to be a pretty sweet Christmas...

    I think you saw the one sold by toybuzcar in ebay. The price is good. I have order 30 pieces of them and ship to Hong Kong. the 1st 10 have arrived last week, and they all looks really nice.

    So are they making the 355 Berlinetta (again?) now? They've been pretty rare for quite a while now it seems...

    I also picked up a red HW 355 Berlinetta from eBay a few weeks ago. I wouldn't be surprised if they started producing them again. After all, the demand certainly seems to be there.

    I have seen them all over Ebay
    The UT version goes for around $100-$120
    The HW version goes for around $25
    There are examples of each right now on Ebay/..

    The price of UT F355s has dropped from its high for almost 12 months....

    The Yellow F355 GTB would be able to stand around 100-120,
    The Black F355 GTB seems to be disappeared for some time, I did not see any of it traded recently... but the price would be estimated at about 120-150USD range.

    The Red F355 GTB red/black, red/tan and Red/black, Red/Tan Spyders price is quite weak now... usually around 60-80USD depends on condition.

    Price of UT F355 Spyders yellow/black and yellow/tan are still strong, and stay around 100USD range...

    The Re-release of HW F355 GTBs seem did not make a big effect on the price of UT F355s. But there are rumors that HW is planning to make Elite F355s.... Even, when you see HW has released a lot different colors of its F430 Coupe, and in a near future, you will see the Elite F430 Spyder and Elite F430 Challenge will release to make in later Dec or early Janurary 2007.......

    Yes the GTS is rare. I cant say if its worth $175.-

    Again..back to when I owned ScaleCars.com. When I bought from Minichamps, I was able to buy several hundred red spiders and red coupes. I was able to buy yellow coupes too...but because they werent that popular...I ordered maybe 24->36. As for the GTS....I was only able to buy 1 case of 6. Thats it.
