Well then id proberly go for this PORN 
How can something that horrible cost that much? The 355 was lovely and cost about 98 grand.
How can you call that ugly!
And as for the price difference lets see...
The F355 - A 3.5L V8 with 375bhp which does 0-60 in about 4.7? Also weighs 1444kg and can do about 180mph. It also came out way back in 1994...
The Scuderia - A 4.3L V8 with 508BHP with a 0-60 of 3.1sec and a top speed of 198MPH Not to mention being super light weight at 1250kg with lots of carbon, and it has a new transmition system, computer software, new traction control system etc meaning it goes very very well on track!
I know what id rather have
Because it's ugly. Utterly hideous in fact. Especially up against it's predesessor, the pretty 355. That's how.
A car's decendants should look at least as good, if not better, not worse.
The 360 looked like a dog's breakfast compared to the visually perfect 355, but the car that has replaced the 360 makes even that abomination look tolerable by comparison.
1994 is only ''way back'' if one is 12 years of age. 
The 355B was sub 100k right up to it's replacement and that was the whole point. The 360 was similar money. To price the equivalent model so high just a few short years later is just ludicrous.
I would welcome that horrible new thing as a gift so that I could sell it immediately.

F355 is the best Ferrari ever. All look like plastic toys now too. Interiors dont look as special either

What about the 288 GTO, F40, F50, 512 TR, 308, 348, 250 GTO, 275 GTB...?
The 355 is nice, but its not the best Ferrari ever. People keep putting it up on a pedestal, but there are much better Ferraris out there.

I wasn't meaning any of them were the best Ferraris ever made, i'm not too hot on my Ferraris and i've never driven any, but the 512 is a legendary car. Everyone knows the Testarossa.
I'd have one over a 355 anyday.

I think part of the F355's following is down to it's wonderful balance and performance that goes with the drop dead gorgeous looks!
