I'd go for the ferrari just bc it's street legal and I don't see a point in having something that can't be drivin on the street

1996 Ferrari 355!!! Because the other is a Ford Probe. It may be fast, but you cant polish a turd. It is still a Ford Probe

dude its a hard choice, I like drag racing (and clearly it would be almost half the price of the ferrari) but a ferrari is pretty pimp....

i would say the 355. that is by far my favorite ferrari, next to the 430. I see the 355's in my area all the time in my area and it is fawking sexy

Nice! Aren't you out of the country? Anyway...

I have and still to this day, always wanted an f355. I still think they look better than a Modena. The 348s are pretty cool too.

Since you posted this thread, I had to go on Ebay and start looking. In a year or so I may have to seriously think about one too.

well the main problem is that for the ferrari id have to wait a couple of more months to buy it....I have 16k cash right now and could buy the Probe right now. And alot of work has been done to that probe, it's a ****ing steal at 16k.

Yes im on an island, but i'll be back in a month. And I agree, its one of the better looking ferrari's ever.

I guess I stand corrected. However, it is still a turd. gross

Ferrari looks too much like an MR2, for $30k I would rather buy an MR2 Turbo on make it a beast

but my vote goes towards the ferrari though //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
