    very cool color, but the combo i don't like. green/tan is so british to me that it looks awkward on a ferrari. but it looks like it's in stunning condition. if you like it, go for it. i don't think it should sell for less at all. just wait the for guy who likes the color. that is, of course, if time is of no concern. to sell it as quickly as a red one, drop the price 5%. beyond that leaves an impression of desperation to sell.

    Its kind of nice, but you had better really like it because it will be sale proof.

    When I was involved in auto wholesaling many years ago, the first lesson I learned was that anything more than two colors on a car has a negative effect on price.

    In this case, green body, tan interior, and black top may turn off o few people.

    I looked at that car a few months ago - Ferrari of SF has it. If that is the green one you are talking about, keep looking. They have had the car since last fall for a reason, and its not because it is green.

    Green/Tan is a great color combo!

    Pictures probably don't do the car justice.

    I saw pictures of a Sera Blue 348 with Gray interior. The pictures were awesome (Naples Motorsports). Then I went to see the car when it was in NJ. I thought it was very blah. I cant imagine this green one is going to look great in person. Its like the incognito Ferrari. Very understated and no attention. That makes it the Bizzaro Ferrari!

    I dont know if anyone in the market for a 348 spider has had a convertible before. I have had drop tops for almost 15 years now. Don't ever EVER EVER buy a black interior convertible. Youll sweat and fry like a trout on a camp out.

    Light colors are without a doubt the way to go. Ive always loved triple black cars, but not when im out on a summer day with the top down. Bad news!

    Ben-- Whats your number on my car? You havent come to see it yet. Hopefully, youve went and saw some other cars. I encourage that before you see mine. Everytime I drive with Ghost, I get the itch for a faster car.

    I think Pozzi blue is the best Ferrari color of all. Classy and understated.

    How sweet is that.... all 4 wheels off the ground on the Olive Garden 550!

    Although I have a Red/tan 308....it's overrated. Love to have a Blk/Tan, Grn/Tan wathever....
