THE FERRARI F355

First presented to the motoring press in May 1994, the F355 effectively re-forged the reputation of Ferrari's V8 which, 328 and 348 notwithstanding, had suffered since the introduction of the Mondial 'world car'. The latter, with its four seats, well-appointed interior, and - relatively - soft ride, was considered far too sensible to be a 'proper' Ferrari; the F355 though, was cast in the mold of that great driver's car, the Dino 246 GT. The heart of the F355 was its phenomenal 3.5-liter V8 engine. Equipped with four overhead camshafts and five valves per cylinder, this remarkable unit produced a claimed 375bhp.

THE MOTORCAR OFFERED

The F355 Spider offered here is being sold in very well-preserved condition, having seen less than 19,500 miles of road use from new between its two owners. A stunning color combination of Grigio Titanio over black leather interior and fitted with a 6 speed F1 transmission, the car has been well maintained its entire life, both mechanically and cosmetically, with presentation today consistent with its low mileage. The seller of this F355 has cared for the car for nearly thirteen years of ownership. Most recently, this car has benefited from a major engine service.

This F355 is being sold with its original window sticker, luggage, books, spare keys, a clean CARFAX, and service records. Widely considered one of the best looking and most exciting mid-engine Ferraris to come from Maranello in the last 30 years, this F355 Spider, with an open air driving experience, the power of the mid-engine V8, and the quick shifting of the F1 style transmission is fit to run in anger at the local track or place into any tasteful Ferrari collection, complementing well with its low mileage.

Please note, this vehicle is without its original window sticker, luggage and spare keys as mentioned in the catalog.
