355 or 996tt

Hi. 355 or 996tt never had a ferrari, would be weekend toy

Please let me know what you think

355 will feel more special, every journey a bit of an event, although the 996T is probably the more complete car, buy a nice 355, dont kill it with miles and it shouldnt depreciate, the 996 will.

Wasn't there a long thread about this a few days ago ?

The two cars are so different that you will firmly be in one camp or another IME. A pecular shortlist i would say. Get a GT3 to drive, or maybe the 355 for the noise, the badge and the whole ferrari experience.

Thanks for that guys.

You don't say what you want from it. So many posts on here like this, but that's because it's such an interesting dilemma. For years I had nothing but Porsches, then switched to the dark side and love it. My initial reaction was 355 all day long, but the Porsche will be much faster in every circumstance.

I have allways had porsche but allways wanted a ferrari.

355 looks and sounds fab, weekend toy a few thousand miles a year if that.

Had 9 911's in 9 years and one 355 for the past 4 years.

No contest the 355 wins every time, longest time I have kept a car

Just a point of accuracy. "the dark side" is when you move from Ferrari to Lamborghini!!!

Unfortunatly its my customers who wont buy higher mileage Fcars!!

[jackal]

if you want a highly rewarding 3 dimensional drive then get the Gt3
if you want emotion and the pose then get the 355
if you want to go AtoB in a dull but rapid and very secure manner in all weathers then the 996tt

Only w@nkers drive porsches. Get yourself a 355, add Tubi exhaust, job done. It will put a smile on your face every time you drive it!

Chased a couple this weekend, and keep looking at a 560 bi-color, but I couldn't abandon my trusty F430...........
