I totally agree with everyone bagging on this guy and his ride. By what right (?!) would he take a Ferrari (that in and of itself is clearly a bag of shit) and modify it to go faster? I mean it's not like he tracks it or anything. And he added NOS? Heresy!
Yeah, what a douche.

I know that 348s are regarded by some as a blemish on Ferrari's contemporary report card; an indelible stain on their heavenly slate upon which achievements have been chiseled. And I've never driven a 348, and I'm not, nor have I ever been, a Ferrari owner.
But I think the 348 is a great car. And if you believe it's not a good Ferrari, and you believe it's sacrilegious to enhance factory DNA - then what better Ferrari to modify than one you don't think is very good...?
I like the 348, I think it sounds awesome, and the last time I rode in one - a Spider - I was howling with the exhaust note, top down, as we flew down the 405 at 140mph.
Compared to the 355, the 348 is subpar - but that's evolution...! Compared to the 328, the 348 is better - but that's evolution...! Compared to the Testarossa, the 348 ...is a 348 - you can't compare apples to oranges...! I think the 348 has a rightful place in Ferrari's contemporary road car history - and without the proverbial asterisk or any other pejorative connotation.

Nitrous is perfect for going fast... I'd like to know how many people who actually race and build motors agree with the whole "nitrous = rice" idea

It's the second most famous 348 in the world.
His 348 can be seen in this video.
