Thanks everybody for the feedback, I'm happy the pics are enjoyed 
Now to answer some of the questions:
the dealer is called Carugati: http://www.carugati.ch
the Roadster could be second hand or could be new as far as I know
and if indeed only three were made so far, holy lord I got a rare sight!! but wasn't the yellow one, tested by Vicki, already sold to somebody (but the test beeing old, the car could have been sold already by now).. dang I would like to know more about that roadster now!
edit, just checked their site, doh  http://www.carugati.ch/stock.html
the black one is new while the yellow stated on the website has 18'000 km, there is nothing about the fact it is a roadster so it could be another one that wasn't there today... the one of the website has 18'000 km and was built in 2001... could be the one tested by Vicki for real?

Great stuff TT, I'm still trying to find out where I can see a Zonda over here. Do you know what the price on the Zonda was?

Nope no idea about the prices. On the website they say "upon request" and at the showroom there was nothing on the cars...

Again, great stuff.
Like you, I think that blue/tan is the best colour combination for an F355! Loved those pictures! The other pictures as well of course...

Thats sure nice of them...the ferrari dealership I have gone to a few times gets pretty pissed off...I guess they think I'm going to steal their cars or something..lol
Great pics! Thanks TT!
BTW are Zonda's fairly common where you live...because at the time of the VBH episode of 5th gear where she drives the zonda roadster she said that zonda had only sold 40 cars...I was also just wondering because I never hear about any being in the U.S. at all...

That never happens to me in the UK :roll:
I went to Stratstone Ferrari (and Maserati) in Manchester and they told me they would "prefer "for me not to take pictures. 
There wasn't anything special on show except an ENZO :shock: But it was under a car cover... you know the red nylon stretchy stuff. It was a customer car that they were "looking after for a few weeks".
There was also a black Quattroporte that looked amazing and it was already sold!!!
It seems that UK Salesmen are a bunch of tight gits :roll: This is the second time i got told this in two weeks... the people on the continent are much more friendly 
Time to try Lamborghini Manchester out soon

Well I think for customer's cars that are around for repair and such it could be different, but well, afterall everybody can walk into the dealership just to take a look, so I guess there is no problem in letting taking pic luckily so far I never received a "no" as an answer

Nope, not common at all! I saw 4 Zondas untill today. And well the first two where at the Supercar Rally 2003, so not really "on the road" and the last two in that dealership. But Zondas are SUPER RARE anyway and to see one is an event! To see two, when one is an HYPER rare roadster is almost impossible
