    Brothers,

    Well, some laziness on my part has delayed the creation of this thread; but finally I would like to announce to the public that I am a new and proud owner of a 355! :) Here are some older photos of the car… I will post some updated ones soon.

    The car is a 1995 F355 berlinetta with about 14.8K miles, rossa corsa exterior with tan interior (and a Tubi exhaust). I recently completed a major service with all new valves and valve guides as preventative maintenance. I also installed Hyper-Flow catalytic converters, Fabspeed headers (wrapped in heat shield material), and heat shielding for the alternator and the motor mounts. No -- doing all this was NOT cheap!

    Many thanks to fellow F-Chatter Mark for not only taking such care of this wonderful car but also for being a real gentleman and a friend throughout the sales/buying process.

    Indeed I was sad to sell the 348 Speciale in May; but this car had been in the works since the birth of the idea to sell the 348 -- and boy does having this 355 soften the blow!

    This car is truly awesome!

    My review will follow soon! Now that I have sufficient experience driving and owning the 355, I plan on putting together a nice writeup of 355 v. 348 and 355 v. 360.
