Im new to the whole Ferrari scene, and am confused at the different 355's.
The spider is a soft top, but what are the GTS, GTB and Berlinetta (and any others).

Thanks
(and sorry for being so stupid)

The spider is the convertible as you rightly say, the GTS has a removable roof panel (ask Craigw if it's stowable) and the GTB IS the Berlinetta, i.e the Coupe which IMHO is the best looking car for the purest.
Berlinetta is the one to go for!!!

Cheers for that.
Is the roof panel in the GTS like a Tuscan. Does anybody have any pics of it?

Thanks

roof panel is similar idea to a tuscan yes. Its like a targa top and fits behind the seats. You can take it off in about 2 minutes. If you get the roof colour coded it looks very much like a GTB/Berlinetta.

But GTS isn't as rigid as the GTB.

Spier best for enjoyment of sunny days and listening unmuted to the noise of that glorious engine

Got to say that I think the Spider is the best bet... There is barely any scuttle shake, the hood is good enough for winter use and with the roof down on those warm summer evenings the car is total bliss...
