    Could these be the worst colors for a 355? Pink and beige? Maybe the color is off on the photo and these are red and yellow, but it doesn't appear so. Hope I'm not offending all of the beige 355 owners out there but these colors do nothing for the car.

    I'm not sure if you're serious. Clearly, it's a color issue with the photo.

    Was serious. The rest of the colors in the photo seem on. The grass and trees look green, building looks ok and even the wheel hubs look yellow while the car look beige. I didn't take the photo but if all the colors were off, one would think that the wheel hubs would be off as well.

    I see that you punched up the colors and that looks more reasonable though the red looks off. You never know what someone has. I'm sure that we have all seen the photos of the 360 or 430 in pink with Hello Kitty on it. To each their own.

    I think that's an old picture of the "Pulp Racing" 355s.

    I think you are right. That girl at the wheel of the yellow 355 is the wife (then girlfriend) of the owner. Looks like the picture was taken in front of their building. Interesting.

    If so, yes the cars are Rosso Corsa and Giallo.

    Cheers

    I saw one on ebay...FLAT BLACK. It looked like my barbeque. Terrible, terrible. Tsk tsk tsk.

    It had a salvage title, was rebuilt. I could have done a better job with a can of spray paint; I was insulted ass a 355 fanatic... and gasped. The car was basically...ruined. -not unlike putting horrid, soiled clothes on a beautiful woman. I think I shed a tear. It ALMOST looked like a kit car at that point!!!!

    Off topic..so am I alone when I say that Ferrari F355 KIT CARS are the worst? When I see one online I say "OMG kill it"

    I am about a month away from buying an F355. If I ever pulled up next to a 355 kit car, I would probably scream "Blasphemer!!!!! Be off with you!!!!!

    Anyway...

    This is a 355 "art car" I would, If I were to own this, well I would remove the children's coloring book that has been spilled on this GTS and repaint her, restoring her to her former glory. This? This is a nice idea better suited for some poor car with one of those cannon-sized mufflers that sound like a dying goose.

    "I returned from that ride a broken and distracted man...."
    That video is confirmation for any 355 owner that they have indeed chosen the right car...
