    No doubt. I spent almost two years looking for my 355 because I wanted a blue GTS. I only found one but it was completely trashed. Widened the search to a blue Berlinetta and then ended up with a Titanium over Bordeaux Berlinetta. Seems like almost all of the blue cars in the U.S. are spiders for some reason. Verde Silverstone is right up there with the blues as well.. love the GTS above :eek:

    Yea I'd be interested to see what happened to it. I saw it in the parking lot at Cavallino back in 2004. It was a 95 in Chiaro Blue over tan. At that time GTSs were going for over 100k but this one was asking low 70s if I recall. The interior was a mess, the engine sounded like it was running on 7 cylinders, and it was overall just in really rough shape. Shame really as it's the only blue GTS I've seen in the U.S.

    A bit late as I've only just noticed this post but I believe the answer is two, both manual, one with charcoal interior and the other with grey (which, judging by the picture you posted, is your car). PM me if you want more info.

    New to the conversation but I too agree with blue. I don't know why but I like the different blues more than some of the other colors. maybe it is just me. Red on a Ferrari is historic and beautiful but blue, for me, comes in a close second. One reason I like blue or silver is that you don't get all of the attention of red or yellow. I wouldn't want the attention if and when I own a F355. I want to drive it and work on it as an enthusiast would. I could care less about what other people see and think. No to the haters. I remember when I first saw a F355 in silver. Someone had to point out that it was a Ferrari. It looked so anonymous and clean. That blew me away and still does. One of the reasons I fell in love with the F355.

    So if anyone has a blue F355 for sale, I am in the market!

    Also, does anyone know anything about the Stradale Vintage Cars?

    https://www.stradalecars.com/en/our-selection/

    They seem to have the nicest selection of F355s I have seen. They are twice as much as the ones advertised here in the states. Does Straddle restore the cars or are they just perfect and expensive. Beautiful showroom too.
