Hello, can someone advise about purchasing a Ferrari 355? I would like to know the following: 1) what is a reasonable price for a 1996 model? 2) soft-top or hard-top? 3) approx. cost of maintenance per annum? 4) are there good mechanics that anyone can recommend? 5) what else to look out for aside from the usual oil change, etc? I was previously a Porsche owner and never had a problem with my Porsche I was told if I want a trouble free car, Ferrari won't be the car for me but I can't resist those beautiful lines. Thank you
Go to the 348/355 section for these questions. As a Porsche owner myself... you're going to find out there is quite a difference in operating costs! as for a mechanic, search in the area in which you live. Start there. If the 355 sets your heart ablaze. Get a 355 and not another model as a substitute. They ALL have expenses at one time or another.
There are lots of good 355 mechanics worldwide but unless you tell us where you are its difficult to be more specific.... And read a load of threads such as these https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/348-355-master-sticky-thread-index.455601/
