    So, I few months back I was kicking around the idea of a second 355 as a project.

    When I started my search 2 years ago for my first 355, I rec'd a message from a guy who had a nice but not perfect car for sale and I did request info but never rec'd anything.

    Ironically, I now bought that car.

    1995 F355 GTB, Rosso Corsa / Beige, 26k miles.

    It was just loaded on the transporter and coming my way. It's expected tomorrow.

    Stay tuned :)

    Nice! Congrats.

    I wouldn't mind a project 355 myself at some point but wouldn't consider it until I finished my 57 Cadillac.

    Congratulations Dave. You know that now you have to complete the set. You are going to have to by a spider next.

    Thank you all, pics coming tomorrow.

    Never say never, but I doubt I will ever own a 355 spider. Beautiful car, just not my taste.

    The 355 IS the most exciting "middie" since before the 458. The "old school interior with quality finish" makes it very unique. I love this car. I love this era of Ferrari. I in fact have all variations of the 355 and will be picking up the 550 (same era) in 3 painfull weeks.
