Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Info for 308/328

(continued)

Rick. Keep in mind that when you are driving a 328 your aural cavities  

are never more than a very few inches from the forward cylinder bank  

of the transversely mounted V8. The car is going to sing it's song to  

you accompanied by wonderful clangs from the shift lever moving  

through shiny metal gates. This is very magical stuff and the essence  

of Ferrariness.

I never grew tired of listening to the siren song of my 328. All those  

miles I never once turned on the radio. I remain mystified by the  

arguments you see over what stereo to buy. Like Raul Julia's rear view  

mirror I would have happily tossed my stereo head unit over my  

shoulder (not easy in a Berlinetta!) given a chance

Don't buy an aftermarket exhaust for the sound. As for better  

performance first learn to get ten tenths out of your stock car. Keep  

in mind that the average Accord these days has more HP. But they will  

never have the 328's magic, or it's awesomeness

And there is no charge for awesomness as Enzo and the Kung Fu Panda  

knew.

Thanks for the 328 info guys.

One other question is what you guys think about aftermaket exhaust  

for the 328. Is the stock one fairly load or do you need to get a  

tubi or other to hear it and feel it? What is the best aftermarket  

exhaust and about how much should I expect to spend?

If you know of a 328 for sale in great shape (not red) at a  

reasonable price please let me know.

Thanks

Same height as me and I had a 328 as a daily driver for 6 years.  

Little tight with the roof on but very comfortable once you settled  

in. I did more than one 12 hour 600 mile day in that car!

Hi Guys,

I'm looking for a 328 and wondering if there are any negatives or  

common problems with that model to look out for? Also I'm 6'1" with  

long legs and hear the leg room is brutal in these cars. Any tall  

guys out there with a 328 that can comment.

Appreciate your help and time.

cheers!

Rick
