    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ferrari-348-1995-ferrari-348-spider-convertible-red-tan-owsome_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ157043QQihZ005QQitemZ150194577497QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

    I'm sorry, but this car just looks stupid... the wing is retarded (in more ways than 1), and whats up with the stickers all over the place!?!
    Theres even a big hood badge STICKER on the hood ABOVE the actual badge!! The black cavallino on the glove box is tacky too. The double license plate hanging down to the ground??? what was he thinkin?!? OMG! IM TRAUMATIZED!!

    And $69,000 ??? I cant remember the last time I saw any 348 priced that high from a private owner! I'm sorry if this dude is an f-chatter... but he's friggin NUTZ!!

    Ferrari ownership unfortunately doesn't equal taste. I've always liked the 348 and this one make me want to cry.

    All those stickers are probably covering up some damage thats my guess-(due to the odd placement/horrendous display of a lack of knowledge in design)
    Wow that wing is just disgusting why didn't he tie a parachute to the back of his car?

    I changed my mind,
    the three extra Ferrari emblems in the interior that are varying from chrome to black to yellow and the fact that he state "owsome" in the title
    truly do make this custom Ferrari master piece "owsome"!
    Im sorry I will never be able to get over this what the hell was he thinking!!?? It is a nice spider, it looks like it is in really good condition the leather looks great as does the paint, and the engine compartment doesn't seem bad at all! The seats look to be in better condition than mine... What a shame!
    He might as well have written V-tec or TRD on the side of it in my opinion

    He just doesn't want his friends not to know he has an actual Ferrari, so he put the extra stickers on it. I guess where ever he lives it never rains either so in the garbage went the wiper arms too. From my experience Ill bet hes from Brooklyn probley right by the VZ bridge.LOL

    The scary thing is that it took some considerable effort to make it that hideous! How the heck did they get the rear wing over at that angle?

    What I also find distressing and scary is... i'll bet this clown thinks his circus-mobile is worth $69,000 BECAUSE of the stupid wing and all those hideous stickers!!
    Geeaz WJHMH, did you HAVE to post those pics IN the thread??? do you know how long it took me to delete those horrifying images from my memory!?!

    Maybe someone should contact this guy ( not me of course I wouldn't be able to keep a straight face) and let him know that he is seriously slimming his chances of sale as well as making a mockery of the F cars. WOW!!

    today he...
    Lowered the starting bid from $50,000 to $38,000 and added a reserve (not met)
    Lowered the BIN from $69,000 to $59,9000

    So far he has revised the listing 16 times in 3 days!

    I don't think it would take much to return the car to its original state. Step one is the wing of course, but this would leave holes in the deck lid. Fixed for approximately $500. The rest are just stickers, and if one is careful, and knows how, they can be removed without paint damage. Seems it has relatively low miles, and nice interior. The wheels look ok. Will need the major soon however.

    I wouldn't be that afraid to buy it if the money is right and one is looking for a Rossa Spider. I recommend an enclosed transport to the body shop though, I would hate for someone to see you driving it the way it is now!
