    After Ton's thread on colour for his 512TR (I love the yellow on the Testarossa range) it's clear most people prefer red. You've got to be a brave person to order your new ferrari in anything other than the traditional colours.

    I saw this 355 spider for sale. I think the colour combination looks great, but would any of you be brave enough to buy it? The price is good. 10-20,000Chf (6-13k euros) cheaper than other similar cars for sale.

    Great colour combo but very brave indeed!
    You can say you own something special when you have this, I'm sure there aren't that many like that.
    More something for a British car actually :)
    Green + Spider... isn't it something for Trevi? ;):D

    Yes, I think its actually called British Racing Green. I've seen it on a 456, didn't do that car any favours really. This is the cheapest 355 Spider in CH at the moment and it looks in good condition. Relatively low mileage. Very tempting, but at some point you'd have to try and resell it :rolleyes:

    It will be a bit harder to sell, compared to a similar red car.
    But I'm sure it won't be an impossible task with a discount like that :D
    There are always people looking for that special something that makes it different than the rest... and if the car is in exellent condition there isn't a problem IMO :D Great buy!

    Still, however, it's a car with a bit of an identity crisis :D From a distance, some people will think it's a Lotus fe.
    Britisch Racing green goes perfect with the beige interior... very typical :)

    It will surely attract intrest/attention too! :D

    Probably the car looks very nice in the flesh. The same thing happens with the grigio alloy colour on the 360. In the picture it looks like baby blue. But in real it looks awesome.

    This colour is a rare colour on a 355. Is it the original colour?
    I think I like it! :)

    Although these colours are not so very brave if you compare them to some of the Lamborghini colours!

    Saw a pearl white 430 spider at Carrosseria Zanesi and at Ristorante Cavallinno yesterdayevening. Owner is the personal assistant of Barichello,talked to him at the restaurant.
    Very special and beautifull color for this car. Especially with the huge black diffuser at the back. Ofcouse pictures will follow, later this week.
