Woke up in Reno, found a new car to put in the barn. 1996 F355 Spider One owner, only 31,115 miles and all records and major done 2k miles ago. Have the books, tool kit and the car, steering wheel & seat covers and all keys and Red Fob to boot. Not going to revile the price as it was to good to be true! The wife is going to drive this and I have the 348ts. Looks like I might sell the S2000 to have a bit more room in the shop. Cheers to all! Roger Spring Creek, Nv. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Looks great. Especially in yellow. I've never driven an s2000 but seems like you made a great choice for swapping garage space. Robb
Just got her home after a wonderful 300 mile Road trip with kid #4 to share the drive with. Sure surprised the wife with the Saint Valentines Gift! Should keep me out of the Dog House for awhile. Here are a few more pictures of her, and the Honda S2000 has been booted from the shop. Fyi, the first owner that I purchased the car from lives at Lake Tahoe, Nv. He travels A Lot! And has a Great Love for these car. So much so that this was his second F355, and the 8th,Ferrari that he's purchased. But what prompted the sale was that he has purchased a new 458 Itialia and has four Ferrari's in his garage all ready and just needed the room. So Lucky me! And when I informed him that this was to be a gift to my wife of 34 years and to set along side the 348ts, well let's say he gave me a Great Deal! Here are a few more pictures, boy I sure need to spring clean my shop. Cheers! Roger

Hello David, so how did I get this car? Well it's like this, I have to travel to Reno once a month or more for my wife's medical needs as Elko, Nv. Is a wonderful place, but the health call is not. So I like to visit car shops and check and see what's there. On one trip about 18 months ago I spotted this car and the owner had it on consignment as he was on one of his trips to Europe and was asking $60k. I spoke with the dealer and made an offer and never heard anything back. After 6 months the car went back to Lake Tahoe and sat. I asked the consignment dealer what ever happened to the car? That's when they placed me in contact with Stewart, and I informed him of what I wanted the car for, and the next thing it was done! And now my current wife(aka my sweetheart or my first wife) now has her own Ferrari. And that's what made Stewart happy to sell me the car at a Great Price! Hope everyone out there has a Great Day!

Beautiful car and post Roger. Please put up some photos with your wife enjoying her car. I too was fortunate enough to have received my F355 as a 30th anniversary present from my incredible wife. Congratulations! Henry
Roger, thanks. You never know what's out there unless you go there. Your wife must be very special. I know mine is. what year 348 do you own?
Hello David, My wife purchased my car two years ago as a Christmas gift and to get me off of my butt. And she remembered all the time that I told her that I was in Love with Ferrari's, because when I was in High School in Reno, a Mr. Bill Rudd lived there and had a Exotic Car Shop, and I would hang out there everyday after school. Well Bill like me and would allow me to take his 1962 car #12 Shelby Corba and also his 1959 Ferrari Berlinetta 250gtb swb, to advance auto at my High School. And in 1977 before I went into the Air Force, Bill moved to Van Nuys, Ca. So I and my good friend Rick Foreman drove these and other cars down to SoCal. And ever since then I've dreamed of these cars! But to answer your question, mines a 1990 348ts has always been out west. I'm the fourth owner, she was in good condition but needed a lot of love. Which I've beed very happy to give. To date I've done full body & paint interior all instruments Lots of Wiring finding missing parts windshield, installed FabSpeed exhaust system Gold wire kit update ECU's and other items. Looking forward to doing a engine tear down in the future and hope increase the HP at that time. Ill send a picture of my car Cheers! Roger Image Unavailable, Please Login
