    I am looking to move up to a 458 spider and am listing my 355. It is Red/Tan with 46,000 miles. I put $16,000 into it over the Winter.

    Replaced ABS accumalator
    New CV joints and rear axle
    Replaced Suspension Control Unit, gears on struts and rebuilt strut actuators
    Replaced Ebrake cable
    Oil and filter change
    At this service they also changed the top to manual operation.
    Installed new radio with bluetooth and USB.

    I have a Ferrari Logo car cover, new floor mats and new tool kit.

    No lights on the dash and runs great.

    Now the issues:

    AC stopped blowing cold, probably needs a recharge.
    Has some stone chips, front bumper has been repainted.
    Clear bra on the front is cracked needs to be removed or replaced.
    Tonneau cover one of the snaps just ripped.

    Last major was 2015 have that receipt and some others from prior owners.

    It drives great and is a ton of fun. Not a pristine example but if you want one to
    Drive and not worry about putting miles on a 355 this is it.

    It has been a lot of fun to drive.

    Looking for $59,000 OBO.

    Nice car!

    Couple questions. What's the interior condition and what caused the front re-spray?

    Clean carfax?

    I guess three questions.

    Thanks!

    The interior is in good shape, there is some shrinkage on the dash by the passengar.

    I don't know why the bumper was repainted it was done when I bought it. I just bought the car in October.

    Clean carfax, if interested I can send to you. Shoot me your email in a pm.

    Has there been any issues with the exhaust manifold that you know of? Does the car burn oil? And has there ever been a compression check or leakdown test performed? Thanks

    Quite the upgrade! Price seems fair and should move pretty fast.
