I do understand the 6MT premium. But I didn't realize it is a $50,000 premium in 360's. I have been searching for my perfect F355 for about a month and the 6MT premium on those is $5k-15k at the highest. Personally I think that car is the future classic. This is a very nice car and I'm sure someone will pay a high dollar for it!

Posted on another for sale thread here by Bob Rouleau, the site mod:
The seller doesn't care about 360 Coupes, 355's and 430's and I'm sure he doesn't care about your pricing thoughts.
Folks, I have done a major clean-up of this thread. Why some people seem to think they can wreck a legitimate for sale thread is beyond me. Want to buy it, make an offer. Don't want it, simply move on. Too many of our for sale threads are being polluted with the kind of nonsense I removed. Admins and mods will try and keep for sale threads clean.

I don't understand why they don't just turn off replies in FS threads. Seems a lot more efficient than having mods waste their time cleaning up these threads.

It is interesting why some feel it's imperative to shoot holes and/or share opinions regarding sellers ads. Unless there is an element of false advertising I don't understand why the need to put down cars advertised for sale, regardless if it's a dealer or independent seller. Perhaps there's some unwritten rule that RL's must disparage all items listed FS. If so, I've not seen it.

One of the benefits of this 360 over the prior F355 model is that the 360 had big access panels behind the seats so that an engine out service is not required. The Tech simply removes the seats and panels and can do it all with engine in the car.
Wonder why the had to remove the engine from the car?

I know it was a standard procedure... and was under the impression that the standard was "engine-out" (hence me including "engine-out" in the description), but could be 100% mistaken. If the standard is engine-in, then I can assume the engine stayed in. We did not order or pay for the service, the owner of the car did.
In the meantime, I'll edit the original post until confirmed.

Completely understandable, apologies on going down that path.
Having the major servicing done by Will and Sandy, a top notch thorough outfit, will show the car as quite ready for sale to the new owner with no stone unturned. I would feel VERY comfortable buying anything they had touched.
A great selling point is that these cars were designed to be far more maintenance friendly to owners than ever before and do not require the engine out servicing. In addition, servicing costs are a fraction of the prior models and common issues are simply just nit pickers compared to the prior models.
Of significance is the fact that the F360 was the culmination of the 65 degree V-8 Jano engine; well developed, robust and quite potent. I wish your customer many happy roads that this will provide them
Forza!

We are primarily Porsche specialists, but as a consignment shop that's catered to enthusiasts for almost 30 years, other interesting things make their way into our little showroom... this being one of them. There are quite a few non P-cars on the classifieds, so why not share all of the toys we have!
I can double check. Like I said, we focus on Porsches, but are always interested in other exciting cars. I am not 100% familiar with the in's and out's of the specific belt service procedure for the 360, but I can provide the scanned service records for anyone, and will double check with the mechanic who serviced the car (Will de Groot for those in the know).

With regard to Will, we are extremely confident offering for sale any car that he has touched. We do not claim to be mechanics (let alone master technicians), but we'd like to think we have a very good sense of those that are. Thank you for the kind words Perimeter!
