I'm getting a Ferrari 355 as my first car, from my deceased uncle.

Any suggestion on upkeep of the car will be much appreciated. I already only use 93 and man im glad i got a new job that pays more those gas prices are high. I really want this car to run good even after I have sold it to another person. Please give suggestions.

Does it require 93? If not, you're wasting your money. The only time I run 93 is when I have an O2 sensor dying, it seems to delay the CEL coming on. Just keep up with maintenance. Most newer cars like that have a light that comes on when it needs a scheduled check up. Change the oil every 3000 miles, maybe consider using a synthetic. If you're concerned about keeping the paint looking good, a good 4 step wash/wax will help it. A clear bra will keep the front from getting rock chips.

Just be nice to it

-Don't force the engine
-Don't fly over speed bumps
-Do your oil changes when they're due
-Wash it every once in a while

Etc...

I believe you, no proof is needed... Uncle stories are true 99% of the time.

Nope, I was kidding. I would NEVER drive a Ferrari as my first car. I'll be lucky to drive something worth 5K+

Running 93 is probably ok... don`t know? don`t have it here in my country..
But a general rule is that the higher the octane number, the easier the fule
burns..
So if you can afford it, maybe go up to 95? or 98?
In most racing fules the octane is 110-115 i think....

Definately. I wish my first car was that nice. I trashed it as well, since I was young, and didnt care too much. Keep your baby clean/waxed.
