Truck was stuck in traffic so it arrived well into the evening.

It’s also dirty AF. But it’s here and it drives like a barrel of monkeys. I mean that in a good way.

I can’t wait to get to know it and share here!!

Id expect them to at least put some sort of cover over it....especially with a car like that.

Engine’s in the wrong/right place. It’s a rich man’s MR2.

Oh man! You’re sharing it with us? How awesome...I call first dibs, it can replace my DD 2009 Hyundai Accent...it’s just as practical, right?

That spec is fantastic! The level of initial dependability has been bizarre, Id love to hear more of your thoughts on the build quality.

Super jelly. I love the 4C and think they look spectacular in not-red.

Nice! I love the color combo! Red Leather > everything

I can’t wait to hear more about it! I would love to get one of these in the future. In my mind, it’s halfway between my car and your old 355 (manual steering plus paddles).

And I’m glad you kept it Italian this go around!

This one has a very quirky feel, too. I can somewhat easily pull it all the way to its limit, unlike other cars.

Thanks! Definitely have a thing for Italian cars by now. It’s a riot, just need to clean it up and get it insured.

Does insurance seem like it’s going to be reasonable? The 348 is dirt cheap.

Now I should have checked this before buying the car, shouldn’t I.

Hahahaha I normally do. But, usually if I want the car, I want the car. Even $300 a month for an m5 wasn’t going to stop me
