Why buy a car and never drive it?
Nice one Deester! But in answer to your question, the reason 355s aren't favoured as daily transport is quite simple - running costs. They need servicing much more frequently than your old M5 and will cost more when they do. Also, they depreciate a little with every mile that you put on them.
But when you see enthusiasts like Kev (456mgt) and Ninja thrashing the nuts off their cars in unbridled passion for the Ferrari marque/fast cars as a genre, you realise that the bitter pill comes with a very, very sweet coating.
Enjoy!
Well It has now been about 1 week and 3 days since I picked this car up. It is truly an awesome machine I can't fault it but along with this car comes several problems that I didn't think would be too big a deal. I was wrong.
1. Fuel. I have spent a FORTUNE on fuel over the last week, its awful on the go go juice.
2. Roads turn into racetracks. No matter where you go there is ALWAYS someone who wants to see just how far you will push it. You know who you are!
3. Attracts too much attention, can't park this thing anywhere! I always come back to hand prints all over the car if i leave it on the street. Scared I come back to a scratch soon.
4. Too easy to speed. Its a licence looser thats for sure.
Apart from that, its amazing!
