    If you are asking which is the better car.............It is a matter of personal taste. They are completely different cars. I don't find the 550 'exotic' to look at, and I have mistaken them for a Camaro when seen from the front.

    The 550 is a great car. I have driven them, but I don't feel that they 'exciting'. The market is showing that feeling...........$89K is a great price. Someone paid upwards of $250K for that car, and got buried. It is a nice car. They made alot of them, and they are depreciating.....still.

    The 355 is an exotic car. The kind of car that Ferrari used to do. That Lamboghini still does. Be aware of the pittfalls..............and keep the 355 if you want an exotic car. Get the 550 if you want a nice GT.

    true to the bone...

    more recent ferrari models have lost a bit of edge. i consider all pre360 models more pure and raw in terms of design and power.

    from 360 onwards ferrari started producing cars not to satisfy its hardcore fans/enthousiasts/clients but to increase its market share (if you can call it that at the top price-range cars).

    don t get me wrong, 360 and 430 and so on are all art objects, but they don t have that element that made a ferrari special... engine apart ;)

    by the way, what s with the front engine??? :p haha, a mech here in greece refused to even call them ferraris :p

    there is the notable exception of enzo of course but its limited

    just my 2 cents
