1995 F355 - I was in the middle of a twin turbo project. I'm looking to unload my 1987 Mondial and keep the 1986 one.

Ask Tommy - I the antithesis to the DIY'er. Zero mechanical skills.

A twin turbo project would be amazing for a F355. Either a F355,360 or Gallardo is next on my list.

Hey Erik,

I didn't even notice your list of fun stuff (must be my old eyesight). I've always loved the 355's. Thought about getting one, but the issues they have (exhaust manifolds, valve guides, etc) has kept me away. Besides, I drove the 308 less than 1000 miles last year. Are you on Ferrarichat...a wealth of information there. Part of the non-driving has to do with having a family now, so I've also thought about getting a Mondial. Don't think that will happen. If I'm going to get a 4 seater, I was thinking about a Maserati Cambiocorsa. Good luck with your sale. Contact me directly if you want to talk F stuff.

That's what I have now. I use FChat and Maserati Life. Both great guides. If you do go with the Maserati make it a later one due to the earlier ones having the F1 pump issue.

Yeah it would have been amazing, but I ran into personal issues which forced me to unload it. There is a whole build thread on FChat, unfortunately we never got to finish it.

What year is yours? Way back when, I used to have a biturbo E. Also have had a couple Alfas and a Lancia...I'm a glutton for punishment.

Erik - the TT 355 would have been a heck of a lot faster than a F40.

I'm "hanknum" here and on fchat. PM me here, on fchat, or email me directly.

06. Not replacing it yet or anytime soon however due to replacing the 05 C and 02 E first. In the process of getting a 2010 E350/550 and then a next spring a 09 CLK350/550. Some work left to do before a Gallardo or 911TT comes to play

If anyone is looking for a clean, vehicle with new brakes, tires, shocks, steering wheel - let me know.

Looking to move quick -

Thanks,
Erik
