Well unless I'm super rich as then I'll just buy the latest 430 or whatever of the time
Yeah exactly the same paul 
I don't mind some capri's I just don't like the colour, the fact it's not a 2.8, the fact it's auto and the rear arches look a different colour

to be fair, 355s are classics in all eyes, capris are more of an acquired taste imo. personally i like em as i used to get lifts home from a job as a young un in one

Ok James.
And he doesnt want a 2.8, 2.9 or 3.0. Hes got a company car to give death, this is his weekend toy. Not track or anything, it reminds him of his teen days as a capri was his first car.

This one has had some electrical problems, something to do with the charging system.
