Reading the spec sheet
No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.
A good match for
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
What the F355 is like
Being a car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives.
Rent it for a week first
Rent the F355 for a week and see how it fits your life. Try the F355 on your commute, then decide. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
Which one to look for
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
The cost of driving it
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
When you know your dates
Send a request to rent the model you are thinking of buying.
Rent it for a week before you buy
