Ok, Ok, stop the insanity! Thank you very very much for the humor........ and the information. I know it hasnt been very long, but I kind of had my mind made up before the post, and wanted to see if there were any reasons that I didnt know about that could or should influence a change in my mind from a 348. The 355 is a super impressive car, and Im quite certain that I couldnt go wrong either way, however, I think the 348 is the car for me. With that being said, I am looking forward to my application to the brotherhood, I guess all I need to find is a suitable gray/silver Spider, so please keep your radar up and keep me in mind (Where besides eBay should I search?). Thanks again.
step 1) update your profile so we know what country/area you're in step 2) ask the brotherhood step 3) talk to all the great mechanics in your area - they know the good cars from the trouble cars, and who's for sale step 4) talk to the dealers step 5) show up to FCA/FOC/Fchat events and talk to everyone, especially the regional executives - they know all the cars step 92) eBay silver/grey spiders will be tough to find - be prepared to buy out of state, it's an unusual colour compared to the more popular red and black.

I dont think I have seen a silver/grey 348 Spider? Gorgeous colour though. You may have to search high and low for that colour mate and pray to the Ferrari Gods I think.
Well I will be looking for a silver and black interior 348gtb for use in running errands and carrying groceries
I have seen silver/grey 348TS/TB/GTB/GTS. But never a Spider by memory. Save the 348 for track work mate and keep driving the hairdresser spec 355 to the shops and the cafe latte strip. Its for the best.
Found one...... Does anyone know anything about this car, or this dealer? There are no pictures, descriptions, etc, so I have to begin from scratch. He has some F430 listings on yahoo ads also, again with no descriptions or pictures. Im not sure I even no where to start, so any help would be appreciated. Ive sent him an email asking for history and pics.

Where else can you find this kind of classy entertainment brought to you exclusively by the 348/355 boys! Best forum in the hood! Brotherhood that is! oorah!
Couple of years back when the 355 and the 360s made one section. You would always find me on the rockin 328/348 section. An altogether better vibe Thats why when the categories were changed to the 348/355 section i was pleased. The old 355/360 section was to altogether "Anal" Yea thats a good word for it..."Anal". MB: Now i am not saying the current 360/430 forum is .....er..."Anal" but i dont go there, even though i drive the 360 and F430 most days Not the right vibe, to serious Yea!!!
The 360/430 section seems like that to me too. There is more comraderie here and most are not afraid to poke fun at themselves as well as others...
Ooh, ooh, can we spoof the 360/430-ers now?! Please?! Hey is it true they mostly like the tan interior color so u can't see the Grey Poupon spills? Or, how about that most of those cars are F1 trans cars because their owners don't have any left leg muscles (hmm, any muscles?) to speak of? You notice how they take themselves so seriously? Well, I guess I would too if I had to pay $50K over list for my car. I also heard that 360 F1 owners prove their manhood by how big a check they have to write at service time. Didn't they put the glass window on the engine cover so u could see easier what was about to break or leaking? I know a guy who bought an F360 Spider Euro because he wanted to pay less than the US cars and it still cost over $200K. Imagine his surprise when the coolant overflow tank ruptured from heat (plastic tank, early car, known issue) and Ferrari NA would not repair or service it! Well, they did eventually, but imagine the pucker power in that one! Is it any surprise that on a club run, the odds are 90% that the member that gets pulled over by CHP is an F360 driver who then tries to claim he did not know the car's capabilities as a reason for excessive speeding?! God, you gotta love those 360/430 guys, eh?! No wonder they're so uptight.
I think it's rather unfair that your poking fun at the 360/430 owners!!!! It's bad enough they have to deal with the fact their cars get mistaken for Toyotas and Hyundai's.....or in some cases an automotive jelly mould then to have fellow Ferrari owners make fun of them.......even though it's so easy to do. Please have some sympathy!!!!
Hmmm...you know you guys are right. I'm tired of the hairdresser mobile. Where can I get some cheese grates for my 355? and that funny tail light? I've searched ALL over and can't find any 355 to 348 downgrades! But seriously...I must admit, this is the best looking 348 I've ever seen: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ferrari-Ferrari-348-355-Challenge-1989_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ6212QQihZ009QQitemZ190082880102QQrdZ1
