"Wooooowwwww!!!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Absolutely nothing so far, but then I've only had her for 2 weeks.

General comments?

AMAZING. the most incredible sound iuve ever heard in my life. Insurance a huge problem if anyone can help me please email me si99602@hotmail.com. I'm 23 nobody wants to insure me. But aside from that, it's the most incredible feeling driving this car. Mine is the spider with a tui and it sounds incredible. My favourite thing is pulling up next to done up nissans n toyota's. this baby is in a league of her own. GET ONE!!!

As per your comments, yes it is a nice car. Amazing looks amazing sound, but... "in a league of its own". I have to disagree with this statement. I myself have a "done up" Nissan, all motor no exterior. That said my 2.4L four cylinder running at only 4psi of boost stayed side by side with a 355 spyder today. My car only makes 200whp and 220wtq compared to the Ferrari's larger numbers. Having said this the Ferrari is a great car to get noticed it and a fun weekend track car, but its no super car, so keep your egos at home.

I agree and disagree with the last comment. You're definitley right, the F355 ain't the fastest of supercars, but a supercar it is (or well was, when it was first introduced in the mid 90's.) Cast your mind back, it was the best car in the world! It cost £110k new!

Anyhow, regarding the speed, I have a F355 and have never been beaten in a race by any other car inc. Mitsubishi Evos etc. But I must add, some cars like your Nissan may be able to keep up to an extent, but it will not be able to beat the F355 when it hits 4000 revs, there's no stopping it... (unless you have a newer Ferrari or Lambo!)

If you actually have a Ferrari it is doubtful that you even bother with kids driving Nissans, Toyotas etc. with the exception of a Supra. I encounter Civics, Neons, Pickups, Jeeps! gawking or wanting to race at least every 5 miles in a Viper. I suspect it is the same in a Ferrari. You try to ignore it after a while.
