    Didn't ask. Not going to impose on them again. This is good enough to show that ask is not sell.

    Love it. Count me in. Not a hater. Maybe a black steering wheel and that would be it. All the new cars are like this. It is a “ground breaking” offering. 1 of 1 in my book.

    Yes only appeals to a small percentage of us, so value is suppressed in a way, because demand would be minimal. But man I like that!

    Let the Flaming begin!

    I will add, that as I zoom in on that Argento car, condition appears to be spectacular. Just flawless to my old eyes. Would trade my GTB for that all day long - even money [emoji39]

    Hello Mark,
    Totally get that - the car looks lovely. I’m on the look out for the best UK car that I can find. So many out there just don’t live up to the glossy pictures....

    Hi Darran, welcome to FerrariChat!

    My car is down at the paint shop at the moment getting the rear buttress cracks addressed and a few stone chip etc, so its perfect and ready for the better weather.
    When its back next week, I have a set of uprated AP Racing brakes and uprated suspension to fit, then its getting an interim service - cant wait it will finally be finished and ready to enjoy!

    Given the amount of work I have done to it, its become a labour of love and a long term keeper, cant imagine not having it.

    Decided to give my F355 Berlinetta some TLC..... | FerrariChat
    Hi Darran, I will keep a look out for you, and let you know if i find something that passes the test. cheers Mark

    One word, Europe. They aren't shy about buying cars the way they want them.

    Stradale has moved cars at the top of the market. They do sit for a long time...but ultimately someone comes along who just wants one *now* and doesn't want to deal with sorting one. That's their angle in my opinion....fully sorted, sympathetically restored examples.

    As for that grey interior you can count me out on that one. It looks depressing like an insane asylum or a room with padded walls maybe?

    GROSS :D

    mmmmm hmmmmm. How much lower than ask is what we want to know.

    There’s a car for everyone I guess. Even Spiders :p. Just trying to explain the reason for the 17% discount :). It’s always a funky car distorting the data.

    I'd take the silver/gray over yellow/black any day. Like it of not, the silver/gray is an elegant looking car. Yellow/black, look at me I'm a bumble bee.

    There's a reason why silver/gray is 1 in 5000 and never to be attempted again :D. I'll give you a pass on black/gray interior, but full gray? Hell no.

    Either way, someone paid $110k for it.

    Full disclosure, had a 2019 Lincoln Navigator in Silver/gray. Loved it. Just sold it. It did have nice gray/black wood grain and chrome to offset.

    Loved that interior! Just could not get over Ford quality. Ultimately decided it was silly for wife to drive by herself everyday when I had my Suburban and it was way better for road trips.

    Saved some money and bought another car with dang black interior. Just looks dirty and shows lint and stuff - black. I like light interiors, but own 5 cars with black interior, ughhhh. Hate that. As well as 5 cars with Tan..... I have a car problem.

    Interesting, the number of F355 for sale on mobile de dropped from 90 to 89 but the number of Berlineta is up by one, GTS the same. So I guess 2 spiders sold. Must be corna virus. They're buying spiders to get out in the open air after being stuck inside for a year. No point in being stuck in a closed car too. :D

    Pass for me on both.

    I also had a full load Navigator for a short while with the dark brown interior. It was beautiful. That grey to me looks like a rental car interior. :D

    The number of 355's for sale has dropped quite a bit in the last month. The total on the sites I monitor was around 535-540 just about 2 weeks ago. Now it's around 495-500.

    MAYBE if the 355 was blue. A big MAYBE. Definitely black steering wheel is a must. And that's with 50% off :).

    I just bought one. Assuming the deal doesn't fall through. I'm an idiot though for buying right now I assume? :D

    At this point I'll take just about any berlinetta that shows up regardless of how crappy it is. Starting to wonder if these cars are seriously 100k worth of car. Thats manual transmission gallardo money, its just off of manual 360 money, and its automatic f430 money.

    Really just not sure if they make sense at this point. I have finally accepted that my goal of buying a TDF blue berlinetta in manual is just not possible. They dont exist, so now I'm starting to have to settle AND pay top dollar.
