after 3 NSXs, I think it's time to give Ferrari a try.
It goes in this week for a PPI.

congrats. It's beautiful.
I often cruise with MY 355, whose yellow 355 is a beauty.

Good Luck!
I never felt better than when I sold my Testarossa!
When you are sick of:
* High maintenance cost
* High insurance cost
* High registration cost
* Being stranded
* Terrible build quality
* Horrible resale value if they have any miles
You will be back! If not with an NSX than at least a Porsche.
I have heard that the 360's and 430's aren't as bad but I still have a bad taste in my mouth from Ferrari's.

I've heard that Testarossas are one of the worst Ferraris to own due to maintenance nightmares. I've heard mixed reviews about the 355's reliability. I am getting quite a deal on this car so hopefully I can break even after a year.
I ideally wanted a '94 911 turbo or a '96 993 Turbo but I couldn't find a great deal anywhere... especially for one with low miles.
Congrat's. What year is that 355. From what I've been able to learn from local F-car owners, the latter year 355's are actually fairly reliable. They sure look good and sound even better (esp. with a Tubi system installed).nicholas421 said:after 3 NSXs, I think it's time to give Ferrari a try.

I wish you many fun and safe miles.
BTW - I like the fact that you didn't chose the typical red too! Nice to see variety.
I think it is gorgeous.
I am anxious to hear if you have any service nightmares/reliability issues.
Please keep us posted.

Very nice car Nick and I love the color. I hope to see you at some NSX meets this year as it would be great to have a horse around all the rice. :wink:
nice lookin' car, that's for sure.nicholas421 said:after 3 NSXs, I think it's time to give Ferrari a try.

a friend of mine in the uk (who had a couple of porsches, 2 helicopters and eventually, a jet) had one of these and each time i'd visit him i'd comment on the beautiful toyota he drove (f 355).
all kidding aside, it's a nice looking car... it'll be good to hear your feedback in a year or so.
congrats and enjoy!

Nick,
Beautiful car and love the color. As John said, you'll be back since I know how you get bored with the cars. Thought about a Ferrari but I like to drive the car:biggrin: We will have to hook up sometime this year.
