Ferrari Mailing List: Re: What you can buy for $30k....

[Steve Jenkins (steve]

I love my 348 Spider. I drive it regularly and maintain it preventatively. No major issues.

What I am saying is NO to a 348 period. Aside from the maintenance, there is the performance, even Luca di Monezemolo was not happy with his. So money is not the only issue.

Montezemelo's opinion is meaningless.....he's an elitist punk who enjoys the panache of running Ferrari more than the car guy aspect of it. What kind of professionalism is there to badmouth your own product like that?

And speaking of performance, it wasn't until Lambo dropped the G-bomb that Ferrari finally put out a V8 car with some real kick to it. What was that, a good 10 years after the 348 was discontinued?

I'm not defending the 348 as a special car or anything, but it gets way too far a bad rap in the f-car lineup, and yes....at a certain price point, just about any performance car is worth the price.

Let's be real, just about NO Ferrari is worth its price if you look at it pound for pound performance wise.
