In my opinion, 328 is last analog Ferrari. It was an end of an era. Today, feels very old. 348 and F355 are the transition cars. Don’t feel that old. 360 is very very different. Still feels very new. They all share dna. And I agree that there are better modded cars out there than the one in the article. Robb

I like that this car was done as such and is getting exposure. I would have tried the car without manual steering, which is what I have on my early 355 Challenge. The more lively steering wheel takes the driving experience up another notch...and the 355 Ch is already more visceral than the fully street 355s. Interesting how folks in Rennlist are talking about putting ITBs, etc. in their older Porsches as part of expensive restomod paths. This 355 Modificata may illustrate how little is needed to be done to a 355 in creating an equivalent or better driving experience in a restomod. My bias is this better-looking 355 Modificata or just buy a 355 Challenge as-is.

Lol this is good reading 348 and 355 are great “cross over” from analog to modern Both cars had “ Technology of its time” and had to meet epa regulations —— so what would be considered modern in those days are now looked at as old tech so analog to me would be something that is more mechanical and less reliant on computers and have a ride that lets you feel the engine vibration and road conditions makes you know the limits of the car and it’s driver — feed back is what makes it analog —— you push hard the car push’s back harder That’s my Opinion Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat.com mobile app
Ah, yes! He is behind all of the Modificatas on the Instagram page. Based on his recent posting on his personal IG page, I believe the blue one may be for himself. Though I am not sure of this...
I believe this is the challenge Evo he purchased on BAT. Killer car… https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1998-ferrari-f355-challenge-2/
