Personally, I think the front plate treatment is the best part It is one of the best looking 348s I have seen.
Yep, I had just gotten a new targa top, a sick set of Cargraphic 19" Wheels and a Tubi, but I couldn't help but get caught up in the price drop of some other cars I had my eye one. Ended up trading it on a 550. Love the 550, but for what I got on trade, should've also kept the 348. Big mistake...
Wow, that's it #80 - before I owned it though! What issue is that (I have them all except for 2 since about 1985?) When I got it, it didn't have the lip on it, so I added a carbon fiber front lip. Image Unavailable, Please Login
...just rubbing salt in the wound now I sold most of the goodies already, although ironically I actually did just post a set of Hill 25mm spacers and a car cover today.
its issue date is dupont registry july 1998 im not trying to rub salt in yr wounds, i want u to buy it back. is the description of the car in the ad good enough to read?
Could that car possibly be the Carl Lewis 348 SS. I saw that particular car for sale in the Houston area back in the late '90s. IIRC, his was a Silver SS Targa.
ace master number 79 sperie speciale Beautiful yrs is special eds in silver is beautiful as well. should start a thread on serie speciale's number 1 to 100
Yes, I believe it is. When I was much, much younger, Cascade Porsche, which was near where I grew up between Akron/ Cleveland, Ohio had Carl Lewis' car for sale when it was almost new (probably 1994 or 5.) I really loved it (I think they were asking $105k at the time.) When I saw this car, I was pretty sure it was his, but I couldn't remember if his was a speciale or not, but I only know of one other Argento one (non-Speciale with black rockers.) It had spent most of it's life owned by a doctor in Pa., then it got auctioned at Herhsey and eventually Lamborghini of Houston bought it from the new buyer who was in for more repairs than he realized and I bought it from them. It still needed allot of work when I bought it (more than I realized), but the engine and tranmission were great - perfect compression/ leakdown, but $22k later at Wide World and the rest of the issues were sorted (major service, a/c compressor, seat belt motors/ tracks, radio, rear window, sagging door hinges etc.) Like I say, shoulda kept it...
Cool I do remember seeing it in Houston, then. I am sure his was an SS, as I had seen it advertised in the DuPont Registry as such.
