    Fioranos are definitely worth a premium but not a $60k premium! If you were in love with the car, I could see paying $75-80k for it. But keep in mind it probably needs a major, new headers, and a few other random things (sticky interior) before you really thrash it - budget another $10k.

    I am looking at 355's and came across that one. I am not considering it, i just thought it was really pricey, even though it looks pretty sweet.

    Didn't the Fiorano's come with carbon fiber seats? This one doesn't have those...

    For that $, I'll take a Challenge Stradale thank you :D

    for 129K you think they could have cleaned up the inteior parts. Notice the HVAC panal is bubbling up, hehe.

    I have #19/100. It has regular black leather. A few I think came with them. But the majority are leather. It does however have carbon interior panels.

    I don't think any of the spiders came with the sport seats, as they have to be power for the top mechanism.

    I like the way the right engine bay panel - the one with the DOT stuff on it - is missing. How does that go missing?

    It does look like a very clean original 355, including original air bag cover and requisite bubbly AC panel :)

    A theory. Car doesn't get driven, battery goes flat, panel comes off to jump-start, decklid closes, driver takes off. Panel gets sucked into the blackhole vortex known as the garage...never to be seen again.

    one sold here in Canada this summer for 125 - was number 99 and it was a 6 speed - i thought it was high too - as i thought no more than 100k - it had 18,000kms on it (10,000miles) - but its 1 of only 6 that came 6 speed.

    i can see why this one would be pricey because of the mileage, but its over priced a tad - but of the 355 series, this will be the one to have down the road.... nice car - but this ODO isnt worth it , let it sit -

    Wow - they forgot to mention the special Alcantera covered steering wheel!! LOL

    The price sounds like the original sticker price. And with only 4,000 miles and 11 years old, you're going to have to replace a lot of dried out parts. Does it still have the original belt?

    That is a nice looking F355, but there is no way they are going to get anywhere near that price, if you ask me. That car is about as collectable as my 348SS. It's not like it was a 16M or a CS version of that model.

    I do question the hype in their sales shpeil...

    price in 99 here was 190 - in the US i think it was around the 170 mark, and they were built side by side with the 360 - which was only 20K more at the time -

    imagine if you had a 99 360B paying 190 back then ?
