$150,000 for a 348 with 53k miles on it?

I don't ever think I've seen any Ferrari with that kind of mileage.

Is it even a Ferrari? LOL

So they took an '89 Ferrari TS and put on twin turbos, an ugly side kit, paint and wing... and they're trying to get $150,000 out of it?

Haha! Ebays even got a low mileage 348 TS for $43,000. You could probably twin turbo it for what $15,000 and have a sweet ride and save $90,000 on the crap wannabe 348 GTO!

348's are wicked expensive to work on/have repaired, which is one of the reasons their values have been dropping. The performance is not justifiable when compared to its price to own, that said I think the 348 is the most "organic" feeling Ferrari of that era, everything since then has been slightly more "detached" then its predecessor. I have not driven a F430 yet, but everything else I have(in the low line of Ferrari's 355, 360, 456, 550, no F40's/50's/enzo's) and from those who I trust tell me my suspicion is correct. They are still fantastic cars, don't get me wrong, but it's much like going from an E36 to an E46 to an E92, every new platform becomes more isolated from the road.

Point being, I think it would cost considerably more then 15k to do twin turbo's on a 348 and still probably not worth it.
