    Just dropping a line to say hello.. I am an avid exotic car owner who is now living full time in Los Angeles. I am looking forward to meeting other owners.
    I am currently having an alarm issue with one of the 355's If you have encountered the same issue let me know.
    The car was shipped out from Miami workin fine, let it sit for about a month. The car initially started right up. I let it idle for a few minutes to warm up, proceeded to go for brunch, noticing te alarm light stayed lit.
    After about two hours of eating and shooting the gossip I trid to start the car again, the car fired once then died. I pulled the key and did the alarm button. The car started agai then died.. That was the last time it started. I had the car awe.. flat-bedded to ym house. i checked the car for spark and it had it, the car does however not have fuel.. Is this typical with the alarm going bad? The car does have a ful tank of fuel.. Let me know your thoughts. I would like to attempt to fix before I have the car towed to the shop.

    When alarms go off they generaly cut the fuel of so you cant hot wire. I am not sure about the 355.
