    Torque-492.0 ftlbs @ 6000 rpm

    LMFAO. I hope to God that's a typo.

    It looks like a nice car overall, work on the price with them.

    I saw that also, lol

    "Torque-492.0 ftlbs @ 6000 rpm"

    How much room do you all think there is on the price? I think the grill would be the final touch to the looks of this thing. Was hoping someone here used to own it.

    Looks like all of the interior plastic is melting. Use this as a bargining point and then search "oven cleaner" in the 355 froum.

    It is a typo that R&T magazine had done the samething on in the initial 355 Test. I wonder if this is the car that was sold originally sold through Newport Autosport about a year and a half ago?

    This car has ran the auction circuit in Riverside for 3 months.

    The car was traded in to a So Cal dealer and sent to auction - did not sell

    Sold to So Cal Ferrari Dealer - sent to auction (probably for good reason ;) ) - look at So Cal Ferrari dealer you will see it in their inventory

    Sold at auction to current dealer last week - now on Ebay

    The car is rough..but photo's make it look better.

    Personally, I think it looks rough in the pictures. The alpine controller is crooked and there is dirt and crap in the console around it. The center plastic is clearly melting, which means it probably looks like complete s**t in person. If the little details aren't sorted for the photos, I bet there is all sorts of stuff to see in the flesh. I do like the CF airbox.

    Thanks guys, this is all good feedback.

    I like the classic Ferrari color combo and looks, GruppeM air intake, Capristo carbon fiber door sills, tubi exhaust and the BBS wheels. That is likely why it’s striking my fancy. If it were mine, I’d add the challenge grill, get the headers from NAperformance, hard wire a V1, detail it myself top to bottom, and maybe a larger brake kit down the road. Maybe with the intake and full exhaust, and a tweak or two, it could be a 400hp driver?

    Now, if it has all of its maintenance records like they claim, and the full 30K was done, with the above modifications and miles, it seems like it might have been actually used by an enthusiast, certainly not a garage queen. If I get a PPI to make sure it is mechanically sound, what would this car be worth if it is indeed a little rough on the edges but in fighting condition?

    For the console, I found some overlays, after cleaning it with some oops or something. One thing I hate about everyone saying search on some forums (not in this post, but others), is when you do a search, half the search results say to search, and second, even if it’s the same thing brought up again, many times new information or knowledge is added when the topic is revisited.

    Those look to be Speedline SAC wheels to me, not BBS.
