    I'm just curious how many F chatters have a 355GTS. I bought mine last year and have never seen another one locally in No Cal. I know there were not many built especially with the F1 option and in my colors.

    Mine - 98 355 GTS F1 - Yellow/black

    Here is a picture of mine - I'd love to see yours We are of the few and definately the PROUD!

    Well it looks like a few of us have the GTS's here and I'm surprised to see we all have Yellow. I don't think there were too many made in yellow.

    Whilst we have a few GTS owners in one spot, I have a couple of questions:

    Are they prone to scuttle shake ?
    How much difference is their between driving a GTS and a Berlinettta ?

    If I may speak for him, Crawford has a beautiful red 355 GTS 6-speed. Truly a pristine car.

    The only difference I have heard was the slight squeek of the top when pulling into my driveway at an angle. I'm sure the Berlinetta has a stiffer chassis, but I have not personally noticed anyhting. For me the GTS was the only choice. I already had a convertible vette and the top far exceeds what Ferrari has, and the GTS was similiar to my old NSX. I personally like the roof lines on the Berlinetta and those were not sacraficed with the GTS.

    Just my 2cents

    I can try to find some...but you might want to ask the other F-chatters w/ 355s instead. My car is an ocean away and some other owners could probably do better!
