    Im close to closing a deal to bring my first F car home! I have been selling Ferrari OEM wheels for 11 years now and we our a sponsor on this website. I never thought when I started this business out of the rear bedroom of my moms house via internet that it would lead me this far.Not that Im done yet,BUT if it ends after the Ferrari comes home,I have had a good run,LOL! Oh that sound!!!!!

    Im looking to transfer this tag over to my new toy 95 F355! Keep me in your prayers.....

    Is that the car that was listed in Fchat recently by the guy who claimed he bought it for $35k and did a major without dropping the engine by drilling a hole in a cross member and moving the fuel tank to the front of the car? If so, you might want to do a bit of due diligence.

    If that's the front fuel tank car I would leave it alone only because if you love ferrari you should probably get an original first IMO

    Ok that's good to hear. The color (of which my GTS shares), the fact that it is a B, and the fact that the guy was selling it in FL is what made me wonder. Of course I'm partial but that color looks fabulous on the 355. Congrats!!!

    here is another look.....known problems I could see with out PPI.....right rear tail/brake light only half lights up.No radio signal (did not even try to tune it in), one front fog light heavily fogged up/yellowed, driver and passenger door window control pods pop out of door panel very easily, wrinkled A/C face plate/control panel.Center console door lock switch locks doors but wont pop them back open.Noticed has Michelin Supersports on rears and Pilot Sports AS on front.Needs new center caps. The buttress area is starting to do what it does but at this point very minor. Has 29,9xx miles now w/complete rebuild completed 6/1/11 at 23,878 miles.Rebuilt at Ferrari dealership balanced/blueprinted, fabspeed headers, test pipes Tubi. All internals replaced and rebuilt ($40K) with receipts and talked to service dept. to verify. New clutch at 21K.All new leather on dash and pods,no shrinkage,no stickey interior parts.

    Rossa barchetta

    Screams and pulls like a MF

    I thought it was rosso fiorano from the initial picture. Rosso Barchetta is beautiful as well. Black Horse Motors had a similar car a while back that had its engine totally rebuilt by F of Tampa. You will love it!
