    Better Yet, come over the border in Ontario and come to the Ferrari Intl event in Toronto. You wont be dissappointed!!!
    If you get there I may have a 348 for you to ride in, and maybe a 550 as well!

    I'm about 6ft with size 13in shoes. Am I going to fit comfortably in a 348. How's the leg & head room? What about the foot well area? Can I move my feet around a little or will it cramped like in a Pantera?

    FWIW, I'm comfy in the P-cars. Never thought I was cramped or needed more leg or head room. Is this similiar to a Ferrari?

    I just need to get into one of these cars to see how I fit.

    1000 Islands Donzi - When and where is this event? Perhaps you have a link? I'll see if I can make it. Granted, it's ONLY 6 or so hours away. :)

    I'm 5'11" and fit in perfectly. I find it uncomfortable with the top stored behind the seats though.

    In terms of your other concerns about the car, I really think much of it is personal preference. You do need to drive it. I would also drive it for 15 minutes or so and then go get lunch and drive it again. The first time I drove the 348 I didn't know what to think of it. The second time seems to be a more accurate way to determine if it's for you or not. That seems to be the case for me with any car really.

    You could also look at a 355. If performance is major concern, maybe it would fit you better. It all depends on what you want. I couldn't have a Ferrari in my garage without the side strakes. Good luck in your search.

    I had a 998 Duc with Remus exhaust...the mean growl and burping exhaust sound will rock any car except Ferrari 348 at 7500 rpm..
