1997 Ferrari F355 Spyder review from United Arab Emirates
"It's a life experience!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Check Engine tell-light goes on and off very often, something wrong with the sensor in the fuel tank.
Ferrari dealer said, this is normal and don't have to worry.
Hood motor is not working, it's manual now.. don't mind it or 30K US dollar
General comments?
It's a timeless beauty, the car is really pretty it's a head-turner not just an eye-catcher...
It gets all the respect at any hotel ramp
haven't mentioned yet the engine sound boosted with the TUBI...
Driving in tunnels is a never ending experience, it's a real F1 feeling..
No chance to listen to music above 4000rpm, unless 6th gear is engaged.
It loves petrol especially if you put the pedal down often, running cost is quite expensive but it worth every cent! it's a real ferrari, live experience!
I will keep the car forever if I can, it's a family member now.
