“When you’re going for it, the sound of the engine in the Ferrari 360 is more of a shriek, while the 430 is a grunt,” says Raj Sangha. “The 355 is the sweet spot.”
He should know since he has owned all three. Raj’s current car is a 355 GTS manual, but prior to that he owned a 355 F1 Berlinetta. The sound of his GTS is enhanced somewhat by the aftermarket exhaust system fitted to it. “There’s a point at about 3500-4000rpm when the V8 sounds amazing even on a stock exhaust,” he says. “But with the aftermarket system – Tubi manifold, Capristo back box and Larini cats – you can hear it throughout the rev range.”
