    Lol, hardly a comparison video is it.

    Half a dozen drive by shots is what I'd describe it as

    This is still my favourite.

    I agree its NOT a comparison video, but i stuck it up as it featured an NSX ... some decent footage but NOT informative at all about either car ... 2 nice cars out for a jolly which happened to be filmed (intentionally of course!)

    Well said

    People shouldn't be discouraged from posting things like this. I hadn't seen this one before anyway. It certainly is a good comparison of the respective exhaust notes!

    In my experience the NA1 struggles to keep up with the 355

    Not seen this one before and dont recognise the NSX either .... appears to be running decats and judging by the number of limiter hits I'd be looking to replace the oil pump pretty soon ... nice roads for a hoon!

    Thanx for posting

    I think an NA1 with the right manifold back exhaust should keep up pretty well. But as standard, certainly on paper the Ferrari has another 100hp. However, I believe transmissions losses are higher for the F car.
    Certainly I've looked at a few 355's over the years and the bill/fragility has always put me off. A shame as it's a great looking and sounding car. I see some of them are nearly making facelift money now;-)

    Cheers.
