    its an old trick. Buy a damaged car, tear the damaged panels off and bang a few chassis parts straight and run it back through an Auction, make a few $k

    Wow! Lovely car.

    Excuse my ignorance, but as a '97 model, I would've thought it had the updated engine?

    Not sure when in the changeover was to Motronic 5.2 ( early 97?) but the Challenge rules stipulated that all the F355's must have Motronic 2.7, so if you bought a late car ( say a '98) then you'd also need to change the induction system and engine ecu to be series eligible.

    Mike is correct re Challenge cars of course.

    The road cars changed to 5.2 in early '96.

    Thanks. Could this also be part of the reason why the 2.7 normal 355s are considered by many to be more desirable than the later 355s?

    Yes. But they don't produce more power.

    Unless they have been hot-rodded, of course.

    What the hell is a 2.7 or 5.2 Moronic ? :)p)

    Real 355CHs have MOTEC so that they DO produce more power !!
