    Nice pics!!

    That black 348 was for sale last year, someone from Canada was going to buy it, guess it didn't pan.
    Was told the owner of that 348 has a nice collection of cars :)

    I was the Canadian that looked at the car last fall. I had been looking for either a 348SS or a 355GTB. I found that 348SS in California and my wife and I flew to LA last fall to check it out. I was going to buy it, bit then I found a 355 here that I ended up buying. Can anyone tell me if the car is still for sale? I think that of all the 348 models, the SS is a VERY good choice, and will probably go up in value in the not too distant future.

    Car was bought by Matt the new owner there in the red vest. He claims to have quite a few cars and this is his 17th Ferrari. I believe he said he still owns a 308 and TR. The car is pretty heavily modified with a fancy stereo (I yanked mine out), GT Brembo brake package front and rear (way too expensive for this 348 owner), and a Norbert exhaust, whatever that is. Maybe he meant Norwood. Cats are removed and the CF seats were sold and replaced with stock 348 seats, something Matt wishes the former owner had not done. But he tells me the guy was rather robust of girth and did not fit them. Car resides in Brea, CA (northeast Orange County) I think.

    That's my dark red 355, it's Rosso Barchetta with crema. Looks like my hood struts need a little Viagra...

    It was great seeing you guys come down for cars & coffee. You guys are a great bunch. Hope to see more of your cars, and to put faces to the names.

    It is driven by everyone else all over SoCal.
    Currently being driven in the 818 by John from Edmunds.com

    Wanna drive it for a month? :) Make an exhaust for it??? :D
    I'll post the link to Edmunds page when I get to work
