F355 is pretty much perfect looking to me

Agree, they are the last of the truly attractive Ferrari's.

Best sounding as well

it's just all cohesive, everything is there for a reason. No faff, no pointless design features, no space-age idiocy, no childish 'angry face' on the front... it's not vast. Maybe it's just a zeitgeist, and a period of time for which I hold a lot of nostalgia, but that's probably a major reason as to why people like classics. Genuine emotion rather than "my whipz faster thank yourz blud, you ".

I'd love an F355, but might have to 'make do' with a 348 in the future... woe is me! First world problems eh.

Agreed.

I don't dislike the more modern Ferrari's but none of them look as 'right' as the 355.

There was an article on 348's in one of this months classic mags which said to snap them up as they are a bargain.

they're a bit late to that party, the time to snap them up was a year or more ago. Values are going up quite fast.

A couple of years ago I was offered one for £26,000 now you're looking at £35,000 easily. Got a Meerkat quote for a manual 355 Spider at £885 fully comp'.

Just need £35,000 now and I'd have one in a heart beat.

weird that the 348 rose so much, if 355 values have not? They were already at £35k+ when 348 was ten grand cheaper.

oh. well I hadn't checked, i was basing it on what was said previously about £35k being needed to buy a 355.

As much as I love the professional photos we have posted here, it's nice to see some 'raw' shots like that one too. Great work.

[F1GTRUeno]

God I love the F50

[Scooby P1]

Agreed. Exceptional spot and good commitment to the reverse photo!

Nice natural shot of an epic spot.

[CharlesAL]

I was around Lechlade-on-Thames yesterday, saw several BMW i8s! And a couple of ActiveTourers.

[9six4]

F50 out in Tokyo today, too...

[STIfree]

Some spots from Paris.

Supercar club, was 80 Euros for a 20 minute drive around the City.



In Merc showroom so doesn't really count, but what a good looking car and unusual colour:



Anyone tell from this pic whether genuine or not?

there's something so cute about that photo

[iva cosworth]

I'm worried that the F50 is too low to appear in the buses mirrors.

Not 1, not 2, not 3, but 4 One-77's in AM Works being serviced/worked on at the same time! Not including the 5th one that they have themselves in their heritage showroom.

Awesome.


If I could get one a 177 would be first on euro win list.

Car lifts look interesting.

[Dave G fsi]

It was certainly rare for cyprus, one of the nicest cars I saw all holiday:

Yeah, the One-77 are quite something in the metal. The little details like the billet aluminium grill pieces etc are awesome. Much wider than they look on a picture too. The middle one was on Swiss plates I think. Dunno if there was a recall or something, seemed unusual for 4 of 77 cars world wide to be in the same garage at the same time!
