if 5 figures are enough then what are we all doing driving FTOs?

not that i have anything against FTOs

I don't know G1?? The reason I brough 1 cause FTO looks good, i don't have 2 worry about where i park it without think its going 2 cost me thousands of $$$ for 1 micro scratch & u won't have 2 paid a fortune for service, & maintenance! Best of all u can do all the modification without high depreciation like the "high class" vehicle

So whats urs???

Hey 02NV, if u serious, i can give u a good deal on the 355 & finance! But i got 2 warn u, each service on a Ferrari are from $2000-$10,000. So don't said i con u!

any details on the Fez? price? mileage? hell, i gotta find some room in my single car garage for it first! ...it'd be a real buzz watching a ferrari being driven daily in Ballarat LMFAO!!!

FTO338 · Post by **FTO338** » Tue Jun 10, 2003 10:38 pm

Well is 32k on the clock, $160k, value at $200k+ theres not more then 5 355 spyder in Aus, only one in Black, which is this one!

U going 2 drive it 2 Ballarat everyday?? Btw i've seen u couple of times at Corner of Williams Rd & Dandy Rd, i know is u after u put your pics on the net! haahahahahaha

GPXXX · Post by **GPXXX** » Tue Jun 10, 2003 11:13 pm

what was the car plate? when did u see me at cnr williams & dandenong rd? i hardly ever drive there, plus i live in Ballarat so i think you may have seen the wrong car... funny thing is, my work colleague reckons he saw the same car as well @ Geelong last weekend, but i was working at the time in Ballarat so i think someone else may have the same setup as my car perhaps....??

Well it was last wk wkday, can't remember now, might be Weds, I couldn't c the plate, but it was passion red with the same color buddy rims u got, & it does looks like the carbon exhuast u got from vinc as well!

hmmm.. might've been me then, (can't remember if it was we/thurs) coz i was on my way home from Jetspeed @ Clayton (from Dandy Rd to Kings Way enroute to Sunshine via King St in CBD) so yeah I would've went past Williams St at some stage...

OK guys, some new pics of my car can now be found here:

http://www.pbase.com/gpxxx/myfto

some recent mods (since the last pics):

1. ricey aluminium 'aero' windscreen wipers (front & rear)

2. carbonfibre GT wing
3. carbonfibre splitters
4. aluminium winglets
5. Sparco/Sabelt seat belt pads (not pictured)
6. Debadged (rear only)

edit: hoping to lower the car by a further 15mm all-round as soon as i get my hands on some adjustable coilovers...

ENJOY!!

Dude, your car is seriously hot - I like the black GT wing and the black Buddy Clubs, a good contrast to the red bodywork. Top stuff - might have to get together when I hit Melbs later this year again and compare notes!

*munch munch*
getting kinda ricey

GPXXX · Post by **GPXXX** » Tue Aug 12, 2003 7:44 pm

LOL, I know... but hey, it's my rice!

...the stock factory spoiler job just doesn't do it for me anymore LMAO!

rxboy · Post by **rxboy** » Tue Aug 12, 2003 11:52 pm

Yeah, i got a factory spoiler

Not such a fan of rice (i'm a pasta man myself), so if I upgrade it to anything else it would probably be a GPvR spoiler.

That is assuming ofcourse that I actually bleeping get my car back

pasta man??? what does it look like LOL...

since i had the wing fitted, i figured no more external mods... from now on, it's all serious stuff as i save up for some major engine / suspension / brake work... even my plans for ICE are on the backburner already!

rxboy · Post by **rxboy** » Wed Aug 13, 2003 12:21 am

After I get my car back I'm saving up to fix a few external scratches and to get a sub and amplified front stage. Then I might look at the RPW turbo kit if it gets good feedback.

Forgive my noobity, but what is ICE?

Is it just me or is there a scarcity of GPX's with sunroofs? I have kept an eye on the "Reveal Yourselves" string and also on the roads and find most GPX's to be sunroofless

I kinda thought the GPX being the top of the line would come standard with factory fitted roof! There also seems to be a number of different exhaust set-ups. Some with twin pipes on one side, some with twin pipes on either side and some, like mine with 3" pipe covers either side, so therefore requiring different bumper bars to accommodate different set ups!! I'm so confused about what is standard issue on the GPX!!!!
