I’m lucky enough to own a 355 F1 GTS. I’ve had it 8 years and done around 23000 miles in it including Europe, Nurburgring, the Alps, Maranello, Autobahn. It’s fair from being a garage queen with 60000 miles on the clock! Costs a fair bit to keep it right, but it’s worth it ❤️
1991 NSX has 210k miles with no repairs but doesn't sound as good as the 355. All the 355 needs for looks is a front chin spoiler and maybe some wheels.
Fantastic looking Ferrari. Hired a 355 for a weekend trip to Dorset about 15 years ago and enjoyed it very much but would have to be a manual for me as the gear change in the 355 is about the best I've experienced in any car.
This is my favourite version of the MR2. Only joking I know its a bad old joke. Superb. 355's are stunning and after this car the small Ferraris never looked so good.
Beautiful car, nice report. I prefer the manual open gate, it's epic, especially when you shift from 4th to 5th gear. And topless driving when the weather ist fine - and even if not...
That's a stunning example of the 355! Beautiful wheels, much better than the stockers. Also, I commend you on the ride height you went with, looks perfect to my eye
I considered selling the house and living in one of these, but then I saw a red toyota mr2 for sale and if I squint very hard it still doesn't look as good as the original
From the outside, an automated manual still sounds quite familiar to a manual due to the slight pause for the clutch, that's one pro compared to a torque converter auto where the noise just meshes together between shifts.
The 3 Ferrari's I would love to own. 1. F355 2. 288 GTO 3. F40 Anyone of these cars will do. But the 355 just has something so special about it that I cannot explain. There are flashier looking cars, but this one just gets the look 100% right.
I think you are a better presenter that those topgear fifthgear hosts who fuzzes about leather stuff... great video great choice of ferrari..more power
Fantastic car, since i was a lil kid, i am obsessed with F355. Currently i own a 600hp mk4 Supra targa, but if it gains enough value one day i would love to trade it for a 355. got to get hold of it one day dear me
Very nice 355. Great condition. What are the rims sizes? Width and ET? I own a 348 and I think if those wheels fit fantastic to the 355, they could do as well to the 348
355 looked incredible when it came out.....in fact it made previous Generations look dated instantly....Still looks as amazing today....would love a slightly ropey manual, just work on it myself and modify it without worrying about resale value.
Hey Raj, what is the spec on the rotiform wheels? I know they are 19", but what are the widths and offsets. Would love to get a set like those for mine. 😁
355s are legendary! I would however recommend you adding a 97-02 Viper to your collection. They too are an amazing experience to own and drive. Never forget a drive in a Viper
This is a heart-achingly beautiful car, regardless of the era. This holds up to the modern cars no problem. Something about that shape speaks to me, especially with those wheels and the slightly lowered stance. One question I have is if this is the original paint? The paint looks so rich, deep and vivid, even more-so than I've seen on other Ferraris of the same time period. Is that the paint, or are there some camera filters at play here giving it that something extra?
If that was a 1:9 205 GTI at the start,i had one of those in the late 80s.It was the best hot hatch at that time.Far better than the 16v Golf GTI.Loved it.Ferrari,s were just a dream that never happened, lol.
That is correct, it's a 205 1.9GTi in the intro (actually has a 195bhp 2-litre engine taken out of a 306 GTi) and it's still in our collection (the F355 has now been sold)
Awesome video, very well done! The so called purists love to cry about cars that aren't manual, but different people have different preferences and cars can be great regardless of the gearbox.
With those wheels and the lower ground clearance the F355 is, in reality, hardly to drive. Especially the long "nose" is a problem. In my oppinion the original wheels fit better to the elegant style of the car. You obviously have some distances on the rear - they look good because they fit really to the body of the car. (I've some Dimex on the real axle of my beloved F355 too...)
I saw another video that said it’s best to buy the F1 version because you can easily switch it to a gated manual, but the reverse is not possible - is that accurate?
Awesome awesome I need one of those cars F1 gearbox the bomb the engine revs a really great with that gearbox thanks for posting your video I would probably put the same wheels on it it looks stock but ready to go
Very nice car, my brother had a 355 some years ago and took it around Europe although I preferred the looks of the 348 that he had before even though he said it was nowhere near as good a car. I’m expecting your next episode on the Porsche to be brilliant. Cheers :-)
Real talk, how tall is Raj? I am just under 6 ft 2 w size 13 feet and I love the F350 Ferrari. I want one but I am concerned I won't be able to fit in one.
Hey Raj, I keep pulling up this video, Thanks for doing it. Absolutely beautiful wheels. Im trying to find one for myself, but the hard top is so difficult to find in Canada. Do you have any connections? And please, get the capristo!
It is the best for a first time Ferrari if u can get one, prices will go up and down all of the time on these, also one of the best V8's ever produced by Ferrari.
A beautiful car indeed, a true connoisseur's ferrari.🤗 In my own videos is my f355 & 993 turbo together. I tried to post a link but TH-cam wont allow because its getting more shit every day😂
This isn't the best looking classic ferrari, this is the best looking ferrari ever 😍
100% Agree with that!
Absolutely 🤩🤩🤩
1000000% agreed
True new ferrari and even astons are so ugly
Outstanding car. Personally I think the 288 gto is the nicest looking car ever made, with the f355 a very close second. But to each his own.
That 355 design NEVER dates out....beautiful!
You got that right!
Much better than today´s Ferrari (PININFARINA)
It aged much better than modena lets say... both beautiful cars to beggin with.
I’m lucky enough to own a 355 F1 GTS. I’ve had it 8 years and done around 23000 miles in it including Europe, Nurburgring, the Alps, Maranello, Autobahn. It’s fair from being a garage queen with 60000 miles on the clock! Costs a fair bit to keep it right, but it’s worth it ❤️
Congrats for using it properly, lovely to hear 👍👍👍
Thank u for using it and driving it
1991 NSX has 210k miles with no repairs but doesn't sound as good as the 355. All the 355 needs for looks is a front chin spoiler and maybe some wheels.
In this sad old world, you are indeed a very fortunate chap/chapess. Keep it up !
cheers, still got it, 11 years now (on 25th Jan)@@roxximusik8958

Youre right Raj, the 355 is the most beautiful ferrari and well balanced design
Beautiful car, nice report. I prefer the manual open gate, it's epic, especially when you shift from 4th to 5th gear. And topless driving when the weather ist fine - and even if not...
The 355 looks totally sick in gloss black with gold brake calipers.
That's the Ferrari I will buy.
best looking car ever made
F355 is the car that made me love cars. Styling is superb!
I totally agree.The 355 was the last of the truly pretty Ferraris. 😍😍👍
That's a stunning example of the 355! Beautiful wheels, much better than the stockers. Also, I commend you on the ride height you went with, looks perfect to my eye
Absolutely stunning!
You should do a comparison video between the 355 and 964 turbo. Not many of those on YT
Maybe F355 and 993 Turbo - similar era?
I think a true Ferrari great and that noise!
Hence I've had mine over 12 years now.
Just wonderful.
I considered selling the house and living in one of these, but then I saw a red toyota mr2 for sale and if I squint very hard it still doesn't look as good as the original
Such a wonderful car! I have basically the exact spec with a Tubi exhaust and a 458. Still in love with the 355 every time I get in it. Enjoy it!
Couldn't agree more!
when it comes to appearance, the 355 is my favorite. performance wise I like the old school rawness of the F40.
From the outside, an automated manual still sounds quite familiar to a manual due to the slight pause for the clutch, that's one pro compared to a torque converter auto where the noise just meshes together between shifts.
Love the Ferrari F355 and Porsche 911 Turbo (993) and E46 M3 CSL and E46 M3 CS.
Nailed it. Best looking and driving BMW, Ferrari and Porsches right there!
The 3 Ferrari's I would love to own.
1. F355
2. 288 GTO
3. F40
Anyone of these cars will do. But the 355 just has something so special about it that I cannot explain. There are flashier looking cars, but this one just gets the look 100% right.

Appreciate that 🙌🏼
This is the best good looking Ferrari ever! I still remember I have seen it in the movie ROCK! The yellow Ferrari F355 and the black Hummer H1.
Love the look with the new wheels and suspension set up!
Fantastic car, since i was a lil kid, i am obsessed with F355. Currently i own a 600hp mk4 Supra targa, but if it gains enough value one day i would love to trade it for a 355. got to get hold of it one day dear me

355 looked incredible when it came out.....in fact it made previous Generations look dated instantly....Still looks as amazing today....would love a slightly ropey manual, just work on it myself and modify it without worrying about resale value.
It was an improved 348 but have to admit, they improved it quite well. Has aged better than the 348.
I know I’m just some guy but this looks like a car hoonigan would do proud 🤔
Another great video by a true gent👍. Keep them coming
Thank you Nadeem 👍🏽👍🏽
Gorgeous car, another great video Raj, keep them coming 🔥
Thank you, more videos coming very soon!
Another great video mate, look forward to seeing some more 👍some of the rolling shots took me back to the Miami Vice days!
Hey Raj, what is the spec on the rotiform wheels? I know they are 19", but what are the widths and offsets. Would love to get a set like those for mine. 😁
Take it back to stock. Such a nice car when its original. Enjoying the videos, looking forward to the porsche !
Very nice and clean Porshe i like this and also super Ferrari F355 Berlinetta.
Interesting you have a 355 after you owned a 360 and 430. Must say a lot about the 355.
I am super picky when it comes to wheels, you nailed it on that cer for sure👍👍👍
Achingly beautiful car. Ride height and wheels are just perfect.
To say I’m not jealous would be the biggest understatement ever. No seriously well done you have impeccable taste 🫡
355s are legendary! I would however recommend you adding a 97-02 Viper to your collection. They too are an amazing experience to own and drive. Never forget a drive in a Viper

Totally agree, the F355 is epic. Great video Raj! 🙌🏾
Thank you 🙌
What sucks is the timing belt
Perhaps intentional ferrari gets more of your money cuz if you can afford they got you
I own a f430. The sound of the 355 is in my opinion, the best sounding Ferrari with the exception of the 250GTO.
im liking that Porsche in the background at 2:23 👀 but the 355 is gorgeous!
I agree, the F355 is the best looking car Ferrari has ever made, IMO.
Beautiful car. Tasteful mods.
If that was a 1:9 205 GTI at the start,i had one of those in the late 80s.It was the best hot hatch at that time.Far better than the 16v Golf GTI.Loved it.Ferrari,s were just a dream that never happened, lol.

@@CarAudioSecurityUK I remember the 306 handled really well.Thanks for the info,cheers!
Loving the classic porsche
Disagree on the milage point, the garage queens with low miles generally have more problems.
Very true. A lot of the parts perish even when sat idle. Far better to drive the car and change parts and consumables.
I think this is one of the most beautiful designs Ferrari ever came out with, especially in that Rosso red
We agree too!
Awesome video, very well done! The so called purists love to cry about cars that aren't manual, but different people have different preferences and cars can be great regardless of the gearbox.
Well said!
Always loved everything about the 355 but the maintenance and the cost is what has scared me away from it sadly 😢
If you buy the right car initially then the maintenance isn’t that scary ✌🏼
Really enjoying these videos, we can't wait to see the E24 one! 🦈
Thanks for the feedback... sharknose video coming soon 👍🏽👍🏽

F355 the best looking car ever!
How’s the sound compare to the 360 and 430?
Best looking car ever.
Beautiful car!
The seating position looks a bit odd, as if Raj was perched on a cushion. And also the positioned the seat a bit further back for his height
Awesome looking car! Torn between this and the Testarossa in terms of looks...
348 gives you both :)
Raj, Beautiful car and my all time favorite. Get rid of that Meguiars heart!
2500 pounds for a cambelt change? that is a bargain!
didn't like the wheels though!
Do love the standard wheels but these are nice too
Fantastic 👏, looks sounds amazing 💯🤟
I saw another video that said it’s best to buy the F1 version because you can easily switch it to a gated manual, but the reverse is not possible - is that accurate?

Thanks for watching and the feedback 👊🏼👊🏼
A very well presented car. Nice work Raj
Glad you like it 👍🏼
How do you sell a F430 for an R8? Not dissing the R8 but F430 is just something else.
Amazing video Raj! What a collection of cars 👏🏽👏🏽
Such a truly beautiful car !!! Epic V8 :)
We agree too 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Very nice car, my brother had a 355 some years ago and took it around Europe although I preferred the looks of the 348 that he had before even though he said it was nowhere near as good a car. I’m expecting your next episode on the Porsche to be brilliant. Cheers :-)
Awesome feedback, we also love the 348!
Also prefer the 348 look, with those epic side strakes. But would then like it to have that 5 valve per cylinder engine from the F355 😬
This is the most beautiful car in the world. With Aston Martin DB 7 coming close.
Good mentions Corvette 69 Singray, Porsche 911 and Ferrari GTO.
Nice one, Raj. It certainly is a looker.
Thanks Chris!
Great video Raj, need to work on that music at the start 😂😎
Working on it!
@@CarAudioSecurityUK can't wait to hear it 😎
Real talk, how tall is Raj? I am just under 6 ft 2 w size 13 feet and I love the F350 Ferrari. I want one but I am concerned I won't be able to fit in one.
how much did it cost you?
Hey Raj, I keep pulling up this video, Thanks for doing it. Absolutely beautiful wheels. Im trying to find one for myself, but the hard top is so difficult to find in Canada. Do you have any connections? And please, get the capristo!
That’s my Dream Car ,Nice Car Sir👍👍👍
cant wait for the next vid keep them coming
You have a very good taste for cars :)
Looks awesome...
Congratulations 👏👏👏
I liked this video when I saw the lights go up
Needs a exhaust system! Nice car Raj!
Awesome episode bhai-ji
Thanks for the feedback 👊🏼
👀👀 Jheezz ,What a beautiful machine
It is the best for a first time Ferrari if u can get one, prices will go up and down all of the time on these, also one of the best V8's ever produced by Ferrari.
Put a Capristo on it & rear challenge grille & store the bloody thing!
Haha... as you know, we are toying with selling the F355!
Store it????Wash your mouth out with soap sir!😁
You need a proper exhaust sound system, sounds a bit limp tbh.
I love the rims
Nice Vid❤
A beautiful car indeed, a true connoisseur's ferrari.🤗
In my own videos is my f355 & 993 turbo together. I tried to post a link but TH-cam wont allow because its getting more shit every day😂
Thanks buddy, the fuel line video was really interesting 👍🏽
My favourite ever car absolutely love them
F355 best looking and sounding Ferrari ever 👍
The most beautiful car they designed
Wheels look great on the car!
Thank you 👍🏽👍🏽
Great vid and a lovely car with those wheels 👍 this channel is definitely going to grow fast keep it up
That's the plan! Thanks for the feedback!
