A most elegant car. One of those cars that is even more lovely in real life.

I'd buy two 365 2+2's or 400i's before I spent 80k on one of those. Wasn't that long ago you could buy a real nice "driver" quality 365/400 (5 speed even) for 25-30k. The decent ones are pushing 40k now. They're the last of the old school v12 ferraris that the rest of us can buy... but just barely.

I think the color combo could have been a lot better, although a lot of people like silver. I don't think the seller got any flattering overall exterior photos, although those can be googled. I bet time will be kind to this design, which I think stretches the boundaries a bit. I like the crease in the fenders that goes through the headlights.
When did Ferrari turn the corner and get their cars to be non-catastrophic on major services? I'm thinking this one is not the nightmare they used to be?

Generally I've been told that the 360 was a turning point when it comes to quality.

If I had 80k sitting around, this would be in my garage. Simply beautiful.

There's something fishy about this one. Bought 4-5 months ago from B.H. Ferrari, then sold to current owner, now up for sale again...what's with that? Based on the composition of the ad, the current owner doesn't sound like a car guy either. He repeats himself several times in the description and many of his photos are duplicates. Probably a 'flipper' looking for a quick buck. Refers to it as a 'collector car'...I don't think so.
In the Q & A at the bottom of the ad, the seller let's it slip that the car came into CA from out of state...could've taken a nice salt water bath courtesy of hurricane Sandy.

Sold for $80,097. Looked like a good car to me and a smokin' deal.

Check out the values on 550's now. They're a relative bargain. Its the only Ferrari I'd sell my 355 to get!
