Tony’s Take:
Tony’s Take: 👎👎👎 A kinky style and a beautiful voice (especially with a Tubi exhaust). What’s not to love? We’ll get to that. On the positive side, the 348 is bulletproof. Sure, half the banks on my daily driver shut down at times, and it tended to overheat when there was air in the lines (a fire extinguisher could be a very useful accessory). Service cost me $4800 ($80 a month) over five years. That’s awesome for a Ferrari. Price of entry: $90k to $120k for a nice Spider – which this isn’t, despite a recent engine-out service. Downside: not the fastest Ferrari (0 to 60 in 5.6 seconds), leaky top (typical of the breed), wrong wheels and a bad color combo (black/black) for drivers in hot states (weak AC).

Wow, no love from you on this car! I think that these cars are some of the most undervalued Ferraris…….production just over 1000? Sitting at under 100k? With the drive that this car offers (all analog, like a go cart!)?
This one isn’t the one though……not a desirable color; not the best condition. It’s still a long way to go before these cars are appreciated. This wasn’t a $100,000 car. That said, I don’t think that you will see many trade in the $50s ever again. Soon these will all be $100k cars.
I love these cars and when they were $45k I said they were the best for the buck. This black/black one with the 360 wheels isn’t for me at all. 👎
