@@rubenramos-wp4nw I just went to reply the same and saw your comment. The LFA is the best sounding car IMO, on par with many Ferraris. I guess I just love that F1 type of sound versus the low growl of muscle cars. In 3rd place for me would be a 2JZ with something like a T51R turbo for those sweet spooling sounds & wastegate flutter.
That green car with brown interior, that would be one sick horse. Can't wait for finished look. Hope you guys give this Ferrari Supra treatment, from every piece to shine.
They’ve always been one of the prettiest and best sounding Ferraris ever, but they stay down in value because of the expensive engine out servicing that most people don’t know how to deal with on their own.
Please look into getting copper wheels to go with that green paint gentlemen. The contrast is exquisite and the interior can also be done with copper accents. Just have a look and see, I assure you it screams class!
@@johnmitchell2269 not all of us are blessed with good taste John. Go and have a look at the special edition new Lamborghini Countach, they’ve just done a green and copper version, and I’m pretty sure that the driver isn’t smoking a pipe. Maybe you just need to fight against the grain, if that’s the case, we’ll done, you’re a real winner!
This makes me feel old as hell. The way they are talking about this like it's an antique. I remember when these came out. I have been in love ever since.
The 355 is the best looking Ferrari in my opinion. I love how this one looks, definitely needs the wheels and lowered. The tails lights are very cool. 👍🏻
i can't help but the F355 is simply a timeless car, it combines elegance, grace and the ferocity of a sports car, its design is absolutely gorgeous and what gives me chills is the sound.... That engine sound embodies the definition of how should sound ferrari !!! Every time I hear that sound at high revs, I get goosebumps!
Paint the spider in Blu Elettrico of Ferrari's, the top in black and the interior in Camel/Carbon. For me it's a winner's formula and also very distinctive from other cars
Just a reminder that 19:22 as Becky said you guys need to get the similar exhaust!! I was so excited to see yours sound like this since it was abandoned!!
PLEASE GO FERRARI RED WITH THAT SAME BROWN INTERIOR. Also the little details like the italian flag stripes under the door are sick defo should look into that as well
I think the 5.0 Mustang has one of the best exhaust notes out there...for a US Car. I think this definitely takes the cake for best Euro sounding exhaust notes.
Watching this after watching TJ's video on it was perfect. Amazing build and opportunity to make some sweet changes. I like trying to keep the exterior if the green is a low build number and rare.
Howdy there my fellow Ferrari "a'Ficionados" - Your friend who did that '97 silver 355 has exquisite taste. 1st off, the Ferrari F355 holds a very special place in my heart. The 1st time my friend who had just received his 355 the day before, so I got to share in the insane excitement that day. In my opinion the 1995 - 1999 F355 is Ferrari perfected. You don't so much drive this car, its more akin to wearing the car. When you finally get seated, which can be a bit of a task for some, the car is very low and not made for persons of all sizes whatsoever. The non-tilting steering wheel requires you to adjust your angle of "Attack" as you get your legs into each position flanking the steering wheel. As soon as you are seated and feel how it holds you in its embrace you realize this is definitely not just a car. This thing is an experience! ....and feels like that everytime you get to drive it. The dashboard is designed to only display the instrumentation which is required to monitor fluid levels, pressures, engine RPM as you monitor and anticipate its banshee-like howl as it nears its redline @ 8,500. The VDO gauges are perfectly positioned and are timeless with their font/appearance. The 6 speed gated manual shifter with it's long skinny bright metallic steel and the gated shifter plate, gives the most satisfying "CLICK!" with each progression thru the gears confirming - yes sir, you are good to Goooooooo! Damn - the F355 is the bee's knees, its the cat's meow !! Mandatory performance upgrades include a TUBI high-performance exhaust system !! The sound is INCREDIBLE, and causes pure adrenaline to course thru your body like a out of control downhill locomotive, the notes from the TUBI exhaust leaves you with goosebumps head to toe after a nice "tunnel" hole-shot. "It's so choice, if you have the means... I highly recommend picking one up." - F. Bueller.
I'm assuming that they know that these had a propensity for burning to the ground. There's a fix, I'm hoping they handle that business. Love the build.
I used to drool over these cars. I remember driving behind a 355 in the early 90s and could not believe the presence they have on the road. Just amazing
They really don’t. Huge nut kick in the 90’s and 2000’s with dealer raping people and over servicing them. If it is a $150k, $200k or even a rare spec low mile $300k car, who gives two chits about a $10k service every 5 years!?! I have spent about $30k in 10 years on 9 different cars. Never lost a penny on any of them. Will not be without a 355 if I can help it for the rest of my life. Cheers!
Also, I wanna say a Lamborghini Merci’s kill switch is in the engine bay towards the back of the driver side. If that’s correct then I saw it in either one of Tavarish’s videos or Mat Armstrong lol both great rebuild channels. Like TJ (forgive me if he’s the wrong TH-camr, don’t watch him) said, if I had a convertible the top would never be up. I ALSO agree it needs painted. Yeah, it’s a color green, pretty for an old man and it being g a driveway princess. For a loud, fast(ish), fun Ferrari then what’s better than Ferrari Red?? That, black top, the darker tan like the silver one, fresh taillights, exhaust, suspension, and BAM that thing would be FRESH. Handle like a go cart, has a refreshed engine ready to roll, and have that Ferrari SCREAM. I really like the valved exhaust because it wasn’t bad at all at low speeds or pulling out the shop then when he hit the highway you could tell it just came to life lol
"I thought you might get F458 vibes..." "It's a V10?" "No it's a V8" "Oh yeah a V8 with a flat crank that's why it has an awesome sound..." Kill me. Just fucking kill me.
I think the color needs to change (Toyota Supra Anthracite would be 🔥). And the soft top in green looks wack IMO, so that would need to change too. With those changes and some BBS or HRE’s, you won’t be able to keep TJ away.
@7:43 as someone with scoliosis haha yes , but also heck you. i have to drive a corolla now so i don't wreck my back. My old RSX surprisingly didn't hurt, good foot position, very comfy car. Good video !
Car is killer Rick a amazing job on it ! Love the stance and the interior and the sounds the car makes! You guys can do the same with your Ferrari ! Love the video
Can't believe yall don't know why Porsche put the ignition on the left. Back in the day, when races started with the drivers OUTSIDE of the car, Porsche decided to put the key ignition on the left to save a split second so the driver could start the car AND engage 1st gear at the same time.
"Throtl starts a Ferrari F355 club" - New title of this video. everyone seemed like they wanted to buy one after hearing/driving it. awesome video guys
The green one needs the silver steering wheel and tail lights, maybe liberty walk has a kit for this car, they made one for the gtb🤷🏼♂️ but if you spray this car I’d like it in Ferrari yellow👌🏼 iced out blinkers on that colour, perfection

This is the first time in my life that I prefer custom over OEM look, this piece looks perfect.
The audio system is great in this car, the volume knob is the gas pedal pedal!
This engine with the right exhaust has the potential to be one of the best sounding cars in the world. The Italian Tenor of the auto world..❤❤❤
Yup LFA Just next…
@@rubenramos-wp4nw I love the 355 and agree it is one of the best sounding cars ever. I will say the LFA sounds better though.

Challenge Stradale sounds better.
That is why they use it in the Fast & Furious when Brian driving orange Supra smoke the black convertible F355 on the high-way..
That green car with brown interior, that would be one sick horse. Can't wait for finished look. Hope you guys give this Ferrari Supra treatment, from every piece to shine.
I totally agree. Give the British racing green a chance. It's so classic. That's gonna be a fun project. Can't wait to see it done.
Rick’s car is sooo damn cool! You guys just made the price of these increase these exponentially!!
They’ve always been one of the prettiest and best sounding Ferraris ever, but they stay down in value because of the expensive engine out servicing that most people don’t know how to deal with on their own.
I hate to say it but... videos like these are the reason I won't own one because of price hikes. But I still will get one... one day.
Every maintenance job is an engine out. That is why people stay clear.
Not sure many throtl fans are in the market for a classic Ferrari… I doubt a price hike will come because of these guys.
No they didn’t increase the value of them 😂😂
Please look into getting copper wheels to go with that green paint gentlemen.
The contrast is exquisite and the interior can also be done with copper accents. Just have a look and see, I assure you it screams class!
this. dark green and copper or even gold make for the most gorgeous combo
@@rxcmxrt truth! 🙏
Copper wheels on green paint? Need to make sure you wear a smoking jacket with a pipe to go with that.
@@johnmitchell2269 not all of us are blessed with good taste John. Go and have a look at the special edition new Lamborghini Countach, they’ve just done a green and copper version, and I’m pretty sure that the driver isn’t smoking a pipe.

@@johnmitchell2269 copper and british green do look good together or at least dont clash from a color theory perspective, at worst its not your taste
This makes me feel old as hell. The way they are talking about this like it's an antique. I remember when these came out. I have been in love ever since.
It is an antique 🤣
I remember Microsoft guys bringing these to autocross back in 95-96ish and following them on the way out… They sound amazing.
@@2809Nick😂 I mean it's older but it's not really an antique. I'm pretty sure general rule is 100yrs old to be antique. Could be wrong though
@@crherniman anything over 25 is antique and eligible for antique plates
Applies to any vehicle being imported into the states on as well
Forget owning this in 1997 that car is cool right now, you are right the sound is incredible.
The 355 is the best looking Ferrari in my opinion. I love how this one looks, definitely needs the wheels and lowered. The tails lights are very cool. 👍🏻
Hardtop looks infinitely better than the vert.
I like em both equally. There can’t be any other feeling like converting the roof on a sunny day in a FERRARI
Yep. Berlinettas were the best spec.
There is a in between...the GTS... it looks like the hardtop but feels like the vert.
Man Rick's F355 has such a nice sound!! I know the camera mic doesn't do it justice. Cant wait to yours complete!
OMG !!!!!! That sound!!!!
380hp is plenty.
This green with this top PLEASE! With brown interior! Would look like a gem! So rare this combo.
The F355 has always been my favorite Ferrari. That thing sounds so fucking good.
10:09 Ferrari vtec lmao when it opened up fully the tone changing was insane!!
TJ has a great vision for car customization and a great taste in colors for retro sports cars
Keep the Spyder Green. Repaint it yes. But a Nice green. NO WRAP. Terracotta colored interior with Alcantara. Match the top to the interior.
i can't help but the F355 is simply a timeless car, it combines elegance, grace and the ferocity of a sports car, its design is absolutely gorgeous and what gives me chills is the sound.... That engine sound embodies the definition of how should sound ferrari !!! Every time I hear that sound at high revs, I get goosebumps!
The brown interior 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 even on the green would look sick
You guys should just do a shared car collab with TJ and do a full resto on the green one
Una delle migliori 355 che abbia mai visto e sopratutto sentito! Lo dico da italiano! Complimenti 💪🙏
Paint the spider in Blu Elettrico of Ferrari's, the top in black and the interior in Camel/Carbon. For me it's a winner's formula and also very distinctive from other cars
cigar or tobacco brown w/ dark green inserts and leave the outside alone..i think it would work amazingly well
Driving one of the nicest looking and sounding Ferraris I've ever seen in vans. Y'all are living the life i dream of
im surprised no one knew the f355 sounded so killer!! its long been a dream car of mine for the sound the car makes!
That sound will make anyone smile. Thanks for sharing!
Just a reminder that 19:22 as Becky said you guys need to get the similar exhaust!! I was so excited to see yours sound like this since it was abandoned!!
PLEASE GO FERRARI RED WITH THAT SAME BROWN INTERIOR. Also the little details like the italian flag stripes under the door are sick defo should look into that as well
This is why I love Throtl.
I think the 5.0 Mustang has one of the best exhaust notes out there...for a US Car. I think this definitely takes the cake for best Euro sounding exhaust notes.
Europe's pride cars.
Long life to our engineers and Italy
Dude Rick's car is absolutely gorgeous

The Italians know how to make exhaust music for sure
I've never given a shit about Ferraris but I've always thought the 355 was fuckin sick since I've seen it. This video just amplifies my feelings.
I used to drool over these cars. I remember driving behind a 355 in the early 90s and could not believe the presence they have on the road. Just amazing
355 is iconic for sure. You gotta have a mechanic shop if you own one of these because they do require extra maintenance.
They really don’t. Huge nut kick in the 90’s and 2000’s with dealer raping people and over servicing them. If it is a $150k, $200k or even a rare spec low mile $300k car, who gives two chits about a $10k service every 5 years!?! I have spent about $30k in 10 years on 9 different cars.

That Rarri has the Vtec baby!!! 🚗
That engine screaming sounds SO good!

That cars engine talks to your soul. 🤤
Man... I really enjoy watching these videos of yours about the 355. I'm so hooked, I'm not even watching them sped up, just 1x and sit back to watch
The green 355 you all should turn into a company car. Wrapped it in white and mix in the orange on it with your logo on the side would look sick!!
Redo the British green and get that camel color leather interior like Rick’s. The stock interior is clean tho! Wouldn’t be mad if u didn’t touch it.
PLEASE KEEP THE FERRARI GREEN!!!!! as for the interior you should look at slightly orange ish peanut butter colors.
Don't forget, you can always dye the top to match the color if you decided to paint it.
This 355 is just...PERFECT❤❤❤
"I thought you might get F458 vibes..."
"It's a V10?"
"No it's a V8"
"Oh yeah a V8 with a flat crank that's why it has an awesome sound..."
Kill me. Just fucking kill me.
TJ went full Owen Wilson in this episode! LOL *WOW*
I’m in love with that sound 😍
I think the color needs to change (Toyota Supra Anthracite would be 🔥). And the soft top in green looks wack IMO, so that would need to change too. With those changes and some BBS or HRE’s, you won’t be able to keep TJ away.

Good video !
Best episode to date!! Such an amazing sounding car. Love all the reactions!
I want to hear tunnel sound with that 355
Make it all black and widebody it so it can join the modern F&F tribute fleet.
EVs may be the future, but damn! No way to compare the fun in a car like this just watching Mickey and TJ!
I don’t know if I’ve ever loved an engine note like I love this one. 😍😍😍
That is happiest I think I have ever seen Mickey before! Pure joy brothers!
Must be a dream driving this car!
TJ was driving that car like he stole it. Lol. Sold
My new end goal automotive wise is to have a F355 with a targa top and a proper exhaust. And all my other vehicles.
the green color is amazing. with the came seats would look awesome.
Frank Ocean all the way. All white body. BBS 3 piece, silver rims, white wheel. Tobacco and black interior. White top. Slick.
Haven’t finished the video yet, but you guys have to have that exhaust on yours,lol 😮
Car is killer Rick a amazing job on it ! Love the stance and the interior and the sounds the car makes! You guys can do the same with your Ferrari ! Love the video
Is that TJ Hunt ? Keep moving forward bro
First video I’ve ever watched within an hour of it being posted ❤ thank god it was about the Ferrari 😍
Sellin Rick’s ride at the light. Brotherly love!
I’m not a exotic car fan, but I gotta say that Ferrari sound is nice.
You gotta put that tan leather or green with white trim. One of my favorite colors. I own a suit in that green. Nothing but compliments.
Wow must be a good car , he's in love with it !!!!! His mouth dropped open !!!!
Indeed, one of the best sounding cars ever made!
this dude at the end shifts so well))) thank you
Loved these when they came out, still the best V8 engine sound.
Can't believe yall don't know why Porsche put the ignition on the left. Back in the day, when races started with the drivers OUTSIDE of the car, Porsche decided to put the key ignition on the left to save a split second so the driver could start the car AND engage 1st gear at the same time.
That sounds incredible!
Your 355 in the green with the brown interior, same HREs but bronze center, make it look retro
Definitely Sounds Better than the New Cars from Ferrari
10:38 Sick! 👏💪
"Throtl starts a Ferrari F355 club" - New title of this video. everyone seemed like they wanted to buy one after hearing/driving it. awesome video guys

TJ was ready to write that check 😂😂😂
More 355 content please
That is the most amazing color paint I've ever seen!
F355 was always my dream car....... ppl are finally starting to see
I say you keep it as original as possible
dude who knew these cars were so freaking cool!
That exhaust! Sheeeshh.....
Wow that’s an amazing sound! Definitely don’t need a radio with that music in your ears
Love the sound. Unfortunately I can’t afford it. Back to reality 😂
beautifull car! i like the old skool ferrari's
This car will bring the little boy out of you while driving it and it’s doing a great job of doing so
British racing green with tobacco Italian leather. . . Perfetto 🐎
