    A two-fer this week, this Jul 1993 head-to-head review en route to Le Mans race weekend is an absolute classic! In my estimation, one of the best reads on the premier sports cars of the day.

    One thing that always caught me on this one is how the 348 and NSX compare and contrast from an aesthetic and driving experience/feel perspective in this article.

    More good (period, no less) press for the crappy ol’ 348. Makes you wonder how it can be such a terrible car and still have so many good reviews, doesn’t it? Only thing I can figure is that those reviewers must have been on the take ;) :D

    The 348 will have its day! Although it has the same proportions of the 355, the two cars couldn't be any more different. The 348 is the last of the raw, drivers cars and the 355 is as user friendly to drive as most daily drivers. As an exotic/unique experience, the 348 might be the winner, though the 355 prettier and easier to live with daily. The appreciation for the 348 will only grow with time.
