    Hello all
    I'd like to see how many 355's that are left in the country? My questions are how many? And how many are Aus Delivered compared to Imported?
    Mine is imported, to get the ball rolling. Doesn't matter what yr or model I'm just interested to see the ratio between imported and other. Thanks in advance for all that wish to get involved.

    So you think asking the question in a place where you'll get half a dozen replies at best will give you a real indication? Really?

    I don't know how many are in Australia Peter? Do you think that there are 6 355s here or only 6 people who use this forum?.

    6 who use the forum. (maybe less) Not exactly a large enough sample size to draw any conclusions.

    About 150 F355's ( of all versions ) have been owned by FCA members at some point, of these 121 have "D" vin ( Australian delivery), ie 80%.
    My guess is that the total number of 355's in Australia is probaby around 350.

    How do those numbers stack up with 360s?

    So approximately 150 expensive 355's and approximately 150 cheaper 355's

    my guess is around 1000, roughly 400 Aus delivered and 600 imported second hand.

    No, I would expect the proportion to remain rougly the same, if there are 350 x 355's then 80 % OZ delivered which would be 280 cars.
    If someone *really* wanted to know the exact figure I understand one could get the import details through an FOI request from the relevant federal governemt department.

    Estimated to be around 4300-4500 Ferrari's in Australia. This is based on import information Ferrari obtained when they took over distribution in Australia in 2014 and then adding their annual Australia deliveries to that number but it does not take in to account cars exported or destroyed. It's very difficult to establish the size of the "fleet" as unregistered cars do not appear on records, nor do cars in certain states on "permits".
