Hey Guys,
 
Tomorrow I am looking at a 1994 348 GTS, a very uncommon car around here being a late car sharing lots with the early 355. Its  a LHD (Which I prefer) and available right now with fresh cambelts for 22,000 pounds which at todays exchange rate is about 32k USD. That's about market price for the car right now. Has 40000 miles, is Red/Black, no rust and in good nick.
 
355's will cost about 35k (pounds right now) and a good 360 45-50k pounds max (even a Spider). I know one Spider that just sold for 32k pounds here locally.
 
Don't really love the 348 but for 22k with a fresh service its a LOTTA car for the coin.
 
Regards
 
Britt

Stephen, don't you have a 308?

 

Clearly, performance isn't everything.

 

348s are great performers...not much torque but nice 300BHP top end. Handling and braking are excellent...very impressive performance once they are setup properly.

 

Clyde thinks they suck but everyone has their own opinions and experiences.

 

Almost all that are being regularly driven currently are sorted out. I had one for almost two years and it was a great daily driver.

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.

Guys,

So you're saying you'd rather spend $70k on a "mint" 348 or 80k on a 355? LOL.

If you're willing to put in the money, you can at least be rest assured you're doing it right yourself instead of relying on a more expensive car's maintenance history.

Buy that car - then SERVICE it.....see how that 'get-in-cheap' investment pans-out.  Not well, I'm afraid.
