    Well, since now I am officially on a look out for a 348 and maybe even a 355 (wife approved this one). I need to make sure it will fit in my garage space. Can someone please give me the exact length of the 348 and the 355 from bumper to bumper?

    Thanks

    On my 355 I get approximatly 167 inches or just under 14'. I say approximatly with my wife holding one end of the tape measure, me stretching it to it's full length (only 8 ft), then moving down and measuring the rest.

    The manual says the 348 is 4230mm (thirteen feet ten and a half inches) from nose to tail.

    If you can fit a Porsche, you can fit the Ferrari

    I am one of those perfectionist and I used a level and the exact messurements of My 355 are 424.5 cm or 167 1/8 inches.
    PS buy a 355.

    Currently the small side garage that houses the 993 only gives me a total of 14' of parking space (After parking the 993 I have about 6 inches left in the rear and about 12" on the front), so if I buy a F355 that gives me only about 6" inches of space in the front of the car to give my wife space to find her shoes in the morning. (Hopefully she don't drop one of her high heels on the hood of the car!) The 996 for sure will not fit on the small single garage on the right (mainly because wife's damn shoe rack!)

    Thank you guys for the measurement.

    I have enough room!

    Bear in mind that it isn't easy to get into a 348 (same on a 355, I assume) if you can't get the door open all the way, and they open quite wide.

    Good luck getting in/out of the car!
    From that pic, there doesn't seem to be much room.

    This is not enough room for me to get in/out

    I guess now there is more motivation/incentive for my weight lost program!

    Stupid doctor was right!

    I guess the alternative would be to move the wife's shoe rack to another location and park the 996 there and then park the 348 or 355 on top or the sissor lift where the 996 is at.
