What an experience, one of the best ever. The 355 I agree is one of the most beautiful designs to come out of the Ferrari stable yet. The lines are perfect, not one stroke is out of place, the proportion is brilliant to the absolute last nanometre. The gorgeous machine stuns you with it's looks, the noise from the Tubis gets you stoned. For those who haven't experienced it, I suggest a dose of the Tubi shod 355 at 2 AM, at a deserted North Avenue, with the baritones reverberating off the buildings, the acoustics couldn't be anymore perfect. Maybe 4 blocks down the lane, and we could still hear the symphony of cams and induction ricocheting of the walls of what is probably the world's best open air theatre. The flustered female, couldn't figure out why she wasn't getting any stares, which she would usually attract if she was in the presence of the run-of-the-mill econo-dans ( my lingo for economy obessed sedans, I hope it catches on), little did she know, the Ferrari 355 is a part of the bevy of nubile seductress'.
I applaud the owner too, nice chap, none of the arrogance that comes with owning a Ferrari, the 'you can't afford it, it's a Ferrari' (stupid F&F ricers)
Coming from a Porschephile, the 355 deserves nothing but ultimate respect. It's one of those cars which deserves to be mentioned in my sig.
