    Hi All, I'm looking at a 1995 F355 Spider that has 30K for miles and has had two owners, has not had a Major service from the records that I've see. But I would like to know how to pull codes, I know on the 348 as I have one of these at home, just looking at adding to the Corral of cars that I have. But I would also like to hear from anyone that has knowledge of the F355 and what I should look for?

    Cheers!
    Roger

    I have a 1997 Spider and would be happy to help out if I can.

    Other than the top, there is nothing else about a Spider that is different from a B or GTS in terms of what to look for. On the top, if it goes up and down as it is supposed to, then all is well with it. Inspecting it for fabric health and plastic window as well,

    There is a ton of info on here on buying one of these. Records, PPI with leak down would be a starting point for me beyond the obvious visual stuff. Stickies, dash leather, seat condition, tools, keys, owners manuals, tires, headers, cats should be checked. Recalls done?

    Mine is an OBDII so I don't know OBDI procedures.

    If you get a bunch of pics, post them and keen eyes may see something you haven't.

    Good luck.
