    Yes.

    Period.

    Here is a pic from when I first bought my 355 and did her first detailing. I wanted to see if the product lived up to the hype (and price).

    I'll let you guess which side of the thigh bolster I did as a test spot....


    (Look how much dirt was in the leather that LOOKED FINE and dandy to the naked eye!!!)


    Using it on brand new leather preserves it, too. Check out my post here on my brand-new Lexus leather:

    I'm doing mine this weekend and touching up the bolsters and ebrake boot. Did you cover after applying the rejuvenator oil or just apply it and leave it?

    I haven't ever covered anything. I just leave the car in the hot outdoors not in direct sunlight. :)

    I think you should keep the car and add to the garage. Unless you want more horsepower, what's better than a perfect 355F1 Spider? Maybe, just maybe, my sorted Nero/Tan 1995 F355 B with Cap3, Hypes, and Fabs, but that's a matter of preference... :) Not selling mine any time soon, as it makes me very, very happy every time I drive it, especially when I don't get a ticket.

    If you really want to sell, then good luck!! I thought about a 430 but I realized the F355 is plenty fast and way more beautiful to me. Yeah, it might need a little more work than the newer ones, but that's all part of the fun, especially when all the big stuff is done.

    Sorry for the thread-jack, I just really want to see you keep your car because you put so much work into it, just like I did with my 355.

    Interestingly enough another FChatter PMd me with these exact words last night as he ran his for sale here for 30 days....then decided to put it on ebay and he got it sold for asking price in 2 days.....

    IDK....I just got two more PMs this morning with interest in the car now that I lowered the price so we will see what happens over the next 48 hours....:cool:

    Something to consider: many aren't aware of how many international buyer's express interest in exotics. There's the financial logistic deterrent factor that tends to scare many with currency fraud at an all time high. Find a broker that only deals in exporting high end items. Thailand/UAE/Malaysia/ are great geographical prospects for these kinds of cars. I lived in each of these countries & there just isn't enough supply for the demand. They don't care to own anything for years like we americans do. It's a quick few month high and off they buy another expensive toy. Best part is once the ship has sailed its GONE for good !!!!

    Not dealing with people asking a million questions or bugging you about every little detail like we do here, makes for a great transaction. It's simple; Here's the car, here's the price.. you want it... PAY ME...period.

    Doesn't hurt to look into it

    This car is worth it, because it was maintained with enthusiasm. 55k is very fair for the kind of care that this car has received. And it is a 1999 to top it off. That would be the only year worth considering in my opinion.

    If I thought this guy was jackin anyone I would tell you, as I don't care for Blampee that much (lol), but I will have to give this car a green light. It's a low risk purchase.

    As a Texas Republican I hate fun!!!



    (LOL) No Blampee is ok. He's a true enthusiast, that is what I like about him.
    I hope he sticks around after his car sells though.

    BTW (I am not Republican)

    Always hate to count my chickens before they hatch...

    But....La Bella is going in for a buyer-paid PPI next week....then on a transport truck to her new owner.....

    I am very very sad today...and it will probaby get even worse over the next week or two until she leaves....:(

    (I have to keep telling myself that she will be better off with her new owner who will drive her more than I can....):(
