When you're a gearhead, it's tough to say you LOVE only one
car
That's because each vehicle has its own personality.
But I do have a soft spot for a particular automobile.
That, my friends, is the Ferrari F355. Not only do I love its design, I also adore its V8 motor. The sound it makes is downright unbelievable and while Tifosi are smitten by the sounds of the F430 and 458 Italia, I am not impressed. Aside from the vintage V12s, the F355 and 360 Challenge Stradale, they're just "OK."
One problem with the 355s. Although you can come by them at a reasonable price, you'd need a fortune akin to Fort Knox to keep one. First you'd have to acquire it and do some standard fixes, like get rid of the "sticky" buttons. Then the ongoing maintenance — like those "engine out" services — will drain your bank account quick unless you've got a nice reserve.
I'll tell you what though, when I come across a great 355 video, I always smile. And THAT is priceless.
I've had the opportunity to put my two GoPros inside and out an awesome Ferrari F355 GT Race Car. The video includes footage of the car in action on track, including start up, onboard camera, exhaust view with flames, fly bys and much more!
