Looking to buy a 348 to park under the TR...

You bet, the 348 handles great and has possibly the best "feel" of any Ferrari, maybe any car. (Evo Feb 2015) lots of 355, 360, 430 guys I read out here miss the 348 feel. Now this is as long as the steering rack is not shot, many are but people don't know it and think they handle funny. No ticking time bombs in it per say, generally good, just tack pullies when doing major service etc. Quite east to maintain as a DIY as well. Some folks do all kinds of things including after market engine management and ITB's and run some big power. The F119 is a very robust engine. I have seen prototype racing with them running turbos etc.

I had a 348 and now a 430. The 348 has great “feel” mostly due to a properly designed manual steering system. At speed it’s easy to give it inputs and they give immediate effects. With a proper alignment and as long as its in mechanically good shape you will thoroughly enjoy the experience of driving it. One of the best sounding Ferrari’s period with the superformance / nouvalari exhaust systems.

 

I’d buy a 348 in a heartbeat. The exhaust can sound excellent.

There is a rare 93 SS targa for sale currently at gasmotorcars.com if you like red.

Other option is a 94 or 95 spider with manual roof and low production rarity... make mine in black.

If you are adventurous look here:

You can import it to the US with only transportation cost, a 2.5% import tax and of course your states registration costs, which are the same regardless of where you purchase.

And, yes I'm partial to Blu Sera

 

100 made, yes those are the original SS seats.

That’s a good price for that SS given the mileage and condition.

 

Yes. I don’t think it will last long...

Odd, it's using a session key in the url. This link should still show it.

I got quasi-serious about buying one of these for sale in Nashville a little while back, and through research read that the seats are the same as F40 seats.

 

The blue 348 is beyond beautiful.

Cody already has one, and I should have would have...but was afraid of the engine service at the time (which was needed immediately) on the same color with light grey.

Cody's car polished out nicely...

There were 115 SS models.

100 1st generation, (1992 and 1993 models) and then 15 more of the 2nd generation (1994 and I think 1995).
