    Hi guys, after almost 2 yrs of ownership & many "events" with this car. I've finally found some time to take some good pictures of it @ a lovely place which very few locals even visit. It's a private civilian airbase area with scenic lanscape & old pre WWII houses & some surviving lamposts which are a rare sight here. I used to train there as a pilot trainee for my airforce. I particularly love the colonial houses built for the British officers before WWII & now they're rented out to anyone who wants some peace in this busy island. Some of the street names are Knightsbridge & Hyde Park! Enjoy....

    Fantastic car! Love the mesh wheels on it. I'm assuming you moved up to 17" wheels with a staggered width.

    Did you lower the car too?
    I can't even get out of my driveway as it is!
    The car hits on too many driveways.

    Looks great. Classic color combination. I think the wheels are a good complement to the design.

    Thanks for the pics; beautiful beautiful car!

    Something about 348s makes me blush.

    Still love them.

    I agree - the car looks fantastic and I love the wheels. They look more like 19" than 17", senna21 I have 18's on mine and these look bigger.

    Love it.

    Cheers

    Hi Chris, for a moment I thought you didn't like the rims! I've wanted the BBS LM look since day one of ownership but they were quite pricey & on special order. My originals are 17" with challenge spec wider rears. I bought this set from an Ebay dealer in Florida @ a special deal as they were ordered for a 355 owner who sold the car before installation. They travelled thousands of kms to reach me (Still has Florida air in them!) They are 19", forged & high polished. Here's the US address for the rims http://www.iforged.com/main.html

    Frankly, I don't really like 19" & the polished effect is still a little too bright for my eyes. Oh & the orig Ferrari caps don't fit!

    I didnt lower the car but it probably was lowered (the car was a Challenge spec before) as I hit my front bumper all the time. The pictures look good but the car actually has quite a few body dents, swirl marks & a left lower side was scrapped by a stone recently. The car will be going for a facelift again in a few months time when I have saved enough. Cheers.
