1997 Ferrari F355 spider review from North America
"This is the best car in the world...EVER!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well it needed new catalytic converters, O2 sensors, fluids toping off, clutch, belt tensioner, radiator, cooling fan and valve guides.
General comments?
The car is exhilarating!! The looks, sound and the handling are the second to none!! It is not as powerful as my 993 Twin Turbo, but easily makes up for it by the very sports-car ish feel. It handles like it is truly on rails... and the engine sound at 8500RPM is orgasmic.. I may keep this car forever... this car is not for the faint of heart. It is very expensive to maintain, but is sooo worth it!!! If you ever have a chance to drive one do not pass it up!!
