After owning a TVR Griffith 500 for 3 1/2 years it was time to move own and start a new adventure... I recently purchased a beautiful Spider in the Argento Nürburgring colour. It's much more refined than the TVR and less "white-knuckle-generating" which is generally a good thing...;-). I hope it will be as good to me as the TVR was...
Here are some pictures:

I haven't seen many silver 355spiders... that colour does suit them!

Nicely done

Once more, the production of auto-eroticism renders the north (of Albion) an unintentionally sticky location.

I think it was "Blake, Jesse," that glorious character from the classic mercenary masterpiece 'The Wild Geese,' who proclaimed that Switzerland, due to it's "neatness, scares the hell out of me."

I, on the other hand, given the combination of your climate, generally prole-free vistas, wonderfully sensible tax regime and questionably monied individuals with a penchant for phenomenal motors, feel somewhat more favourably disposed.

In other words, astonishing. BRAVO!

Thanks to everybody for the warm welcome to the Ferrari forum! I must admit that I was not really sure about the colour in the beginning, but right now, I just could not dream of anything else than silver.
For now, it has the standard exhaust which, thanks to the bypass valve, is sounding very nicely. I'm thinking about having a Capristo instead, but I have to hear it in the flesh before making the decision.

Cheers Andy
