Thought it would be a good idea to make a list of F355 owners on Ferrarilife

Please post up a picture of your F355 and some info about it. It's up to you what info you want to provide but an example would be:

Model: F355 GTB
Year: 1996
Country: Belgium
Steering: LHD
Chassis number: 101052
Ferrari colour: Rosso Corsa
Interior colour: Nero


In order to keep the thread on topic, please only post once in this thread with all the info you would like to provide on your F355.

Thanks.

Country: England
Steering: RHD
Chassis number: 103347
Ferrari colour: Rosso Barchetta
Interior colour: Cream

This European car is in the rare colour of Rosso Barchetta. The origins of this colour is from the racing Alfa Romeos that Enzo Ferrari originally raced and later badged up as Ferraria Bimotore. Later Enzos first road Ferrari (125s) was also in this colour of Rosso Barchetta. This colour is what Enzo referred to as "blood red". The later reds like Rosso coursa came after the Rossso Barchetta colour.
The car is also equipped with harmonic resonators, the type that are only found on early 2.7 European Spiders only. The resonators are the tubes that emerge from the side panel of the engine bay and lay across the back of the rear grill and wrap round the air boxes.
Other mods are......
Xenon lights.
After market fuel chips.
Challenge grill.
Led side lights.
Clear indicators.

30k service was done in Sept. '08 with 22k on the clock. We had Fab-speed headers, hyper-flow cats, ant tubi exhaust put on as well... It also had a challange grill...

 

[Aircon]

Do those fabspeed headers actually make a difference in performance? (measured, not imagined) and is there an issue with the alternator getting too hot?

Well if there is a difference in performance I can't tell? Seems the same (as far as power) as the stock headers. But it would be hard for me to say anything just about the headers since I did the whole exhaust at the time of the service.... Other than the sound I can't tell much of a difference.

Since I've had the service done I've put about 3k on the car and havn't had any problems with my alt. but we did make a heat shield and I had the headers ceramic coated inside and out... So far I've had no problems...

that should solve any issues.

Sorry for my late reply Boxer, but no I've never driven with them. I don't know the guys. I'm not a FCN member, so I don't know that many Ferrari drivers. Only the guys that I meet every now and then when I'm visiting my dealer (Forzaservice).

I don't know if any of them are FCN members. I think it is a more casual situation where they just get together for drives on the weekend sometimes. http://www.ferrarilife.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9014

There is no doubt that a 355 is a very good looking car.

Great pictures guys.
