    jp, your 355 looks like my old one - silverstone verde? absolutely beautiful.

    but i never liked the verde mugello, looks even worse in person.

    Oh Oh, you mean somebody just wasted 20G's on a major service? Sounds like that green may be a tough sell! Some time ago there was a 456 for sale that was dark green on tan. It got a lot of positive attention. Green seems to be a very fickle shade that has it's ups and downs as far as popularity goes.

    Green is why leasing was invented. Stick the leasing company with it after you've driven what you wanted.

    I specifically purchased my 355 for its color ignoring a few minor items and flew 1/2 way across the Country for it, the car gets constant compliments on the color and I have had offers to buy it, a different color goes both ways can be a deterrent to some but others specifically want it over regular boring colors you see often on sports cars.

    The girl on the left is nice and a bartender there, have known her for a few years named Briana, the other one I don't know

    You're taking my comments all wrong. Drive what you want.

    For those who rotate cars, and who want non-standard colors, leasing is a great way to never have to worry about resale.

    For those who keep their cars forever, resale isn't even an issue, of course.

    I'm not keen on the verde muguello in the eBay pics, but I've never seen it in person. I absolutely wouldn't bid on something like this without seeing it in various lighting first, because resale would be tough if you fall out of love with it. (The carpets bother me more...)

    The darker green is more appealing, IMO.

    I haven't seen a really bad color on a 355, though. Probably my favorite by a slight margin is F'Chat'er Robin's titanium coupe.

    Green is not my color of choice, but for some it obviously is. On average the Green cars tend to be 10k+ under a similar red or yellow car from what I have seen. So if you are looking for a good bargin and don't care about color, this is an option.

    First a purple 430 on Fchat this week, then a Yellow/red 355 and now this green car. Just goes to show that some folks definitely have more dollars than sense. Yuck!

    Not my favorite color, but if Ferraris were not all red, black, or yellow I think this color would be more popular. fortunately Ferrari got the perfect color of red with Rossa Corsa and so it has become almost synonymous with the brand.

    I'd be a buyer at near the ask price, pending PPI.......wild seeing green carpet though.....

    The only mainstream color I wouldn't buy is black.......for a car with great design, black is the worst color out there......turns everything into a shapeless blob. Thats why all SUVs, trucks, and minivans should be black.......theres nothing to see there anyway :D

    Why? Will he not allow me to choose colors I think accentuate the beauty of the car.......rather than disguise it?

    Its true, light colors bring out the lines in an object by creating shadows where there are contours.....black makes the whole thing a shadow.
