In a daring move reminiscent of a heist movie, throtl acquired a forlorn Ferrari F355, abandoned for a decade, its once-glorious body now a rat sanctuary. The team, undeterred by the car's sorry state, embarked on a mission to resurrect this Italian stallion. With paint restored and the engine roaring back to life, the F355 was ready for its phoenix-like rise from the ashes.

Sonoko, in a twist of fate, challenged the team to unveil the reborn Ferrari at the Miami F1 race weekend, a fitting stage for its grand comeback. The stakes were high, with a partnership announcement adding to the pressure. The interior, a relic of the past, was next on the chopping block. Out went the outdated components, making way for luxurious Italian leather in vibrant hues, a nod to the car's heritage with a modern twist.

Enter the Liberty Walk kit, a game-changer for the F355 Spider, promising a radical transformation. The team meticulously cut and fitted the widebody kit, enhancing the car's stance and presence. Airlift performance air suspension was the cherry on top, blending Japanese precision with Italian flair. The Ferrari now sits lower, sleeker, and meaner, ready to conquer the streets of Miami and beyond.

With SOS Customs on board for the next phase of the overhaul, the Ferrari's fate hangs in the balance. The promise of a new color scheme teased excitement, hinting at a bold new chapter for this once-forgotten supercar. As the team gears up for the final act of this automotive drama, one thing is certain - the Ferrari F355 is poised for a triumphant return, a phoenix reborn from the ashes of neglect.
