I can only imagine you purchased this for an investment and have no desire or thought of driving it. That's going to make one beautiful garage queen, that's for sure!

Tell me, when a car this old has had no miles put on it, in what condition are the motor's seals? I can only imagine that if this car were driven for any length of time now, there would be repairs-o-plenty ahead.

I'm still envious though. What a gorgeous car! Thanks for the giant picture of it

Congrats!!!!!!!

BTW, I am postulating that you work for Apple or you just made a tidy wad of cash on their stock jump!

sweet ride. Once in a while i check craigslist and ebay for a disgruntled wife or husband selling an exotic for $100. I know it'll never happen but that's the only way i would buy a car like yours.

125 miles on a 15 yr old car? What do you do with something like that? Are you gonna actually drive and enjoy it or treat it like an investment?

Is that a 1995?

You sir are a brave soul! I lust for a 360 some day...when I'll be rich enough to retire and enroll in to Fix It Again Tony school. I see these guys doing their own maintance on their garage lifts and think man that would be so cool. Having your cake and eating it too.

A guy in my Autocross club bought a new Scuderia and was told that the $10K or whatever rotors could not be serviced at the first interval. They had to be replaced completely. Yikes

Beautiful!!! Always loved the 355s. Timeless car if you ask me.

If in fact it does have 125 total miles and you plan on driving it make sure its not sitting on the original rubber!

ENJOY!
