Clear lights on white. Yes, they do look after-market to us because U.S cars tend to have amber lights because of U.S-only regulations. Many change them out because they prefer clear, thus it feels after-market. I personally think the clears add more detail and depth. That's the look Maranello intended. Amber lights, front/rear bumper reflectors are just after-thought changes to please U.S regs. Image Unavailable, Please Login
I have a capristo 3 with straight pipe cats and I think the car is too quiet under closed valve driving. It's almost as if you don't even have an after-market exhaust. My Scud w/ stock exhaust system is louder. I haven't heard a Cap 2, but if it is louder during closed valve, I would highly recommend it over the Cap 3.
I do like the cleaner look in this photo. Have never seen this photo of another white 355 GTB. Looks like a tan interior? I'll have to consider clears now.
Buy these bulbs or leds for use with the clear lens to remain legal. They are a "stealth" amber light as if you just use a regular amber bulb, you see an ugly ghost behind the lens: https://stealthauto.com/Accessories-for-BMW/Lighting/Turn-Signal-Lights/Invisible-Amber-Turn-Signal-Bulbs/ And use these for the backup bulb replace so don't melt the lens: https://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/tail-brake-turn/67-led-bulb-15-led-forward-firing-cluster-ba15s-retrofit-car/169/
That's because that car is in Japan . And yes it does have tan interior. I've noticed a common theme amongst white cars is a non two-tone color scheme. Usually, 355's will at least have the upper dash in black. I thought that was interesting. My buddy has a white 96 GTB manual with a full Cuoio interior. I prefer your 95 w/ the black interior .
If we're talking about the same car, it wasn't sold a few years back unless you mean 7-10 years ago. My buddy has had his 355 at least 2-3 years before I've had mine. He actually talked me out of an F430 and got me on the 355 boat. I am glad I bought a 355 instead . He has about 10 Ferraris and a few high-end Porches. I told him he could probably get $120k for his car right now. Said he'll never sell the 355.
It's very possible because it has indentical specs. He tells me it's a 96 car, but the one in the registry is a 96 build, but a 97 car? I can ask him next time I see him. He's changed it up a bit http://youtu.be/LfjAMhIv5nc
The one you called about in Virginia is very nice. Let me know if you'd like me to go take a look for you.
Turbo is needed for any "excitement" in the P-cars. Let me rephrase that... "to feel the speed." So the turbo would get my vote although I like the wingless profile. But Neither will compare to the Ferrari in my opinion. Robb
