I've had the same experience as you... but in a 355. Your post is exactly the sort of nonsense that has people crapping themselves when they're buying a 355. I would hate to think that your post makes even one person get a 348 when they really wanted a 355. Any car can be a money pit if you buy a lemon, which is what your mate has done. Oh and this isn't a 348 vs 355 post - I like both
like i said, didnt mean to offend. i love them both,from the eyes of a garage owner, i see 348's for regular maint. and 355's for repairs. seems like everything they added is what gives the problems. ( electronics and convenience items ). i have a friend that has just gotten sick of fixing the power top every year and now has it all disconnected and puts it down manually.just wanted to say, if you buy a 355 you may spend more on it than a 348
The 348ts love affair is holding strong, she winks at me and blush's red when ever we meet, in the shop or in the sun, I behold her beauty and hold her dear. She winks at me and blush's red for she pleases me.
