    $79,500

    ***Now with engine-out major service with belts completed April 2018.***

    Details on the car are listed a little ways down below.

    Price reduced by motivated seller. I would like to make some room in the garage! Sometimes we need to part ways with beautiful objects and move on.

    If you have been thinking about a 355, this is a great opportunity to consider. At this price, a buyer would be looking at very little downside, if any. Once the market goes into one of its little frenzies, GTS 355s will go back up to their very high premium status due to the rarity of the GTS trim.

    The F1 on the 355 is great transmission because it behaves just about exactly as a manual transmission behaves. This car is a pleasure to drive, and the F1 system in both manual and automatic modes works flawlessly.

    The Argento Silver exterior color is amazing. So sharp and so exotic!

    Buy with confidence. I am a highly experienced collector, buyer, and seller of F-cars for my private use. Having had 13 years experience with this hobby and having helped countless F-Chatters with their first F-cars or beyond, I can assure any potential buyer he will not be disappointed. I go out of my way to purchase the right cars and to make them even more right once I take ownership. Complete 355s like this one are virtually impossible to find. Thanks for reading!

    The car is listed in the title as "Taken off market". The moderators can probably fix this for you.
    Car looks perfect!

    Thanks bud!

    It seems 355 buyers are in hiding... or people simply hate this outstanding example. Would someone grow a pair of ba*ls and buy this thing? Lol

    I changed the ad prefix back to 'For Sale" and deleted a number of unneeded posts.

    Beautiful car, GLWS!

    I've always been a fan of silver Ferraris. The F355 lines, curves and openings are highlighted by this magical color. Superb . . . .
