Overview

Ferrari’s 348 made its debut at the Frankfurt Auto Show in September of 1989. Production beginning in the same year ran until 1993, yielding fewer than 5,000 348 TS (Transversale Spider) in total. The new model’s targa-roof configuration paired seamlessly with power derived from a 3.4L 32 valve V8 featuring a flat-plane crankshaft, quad-cam valvetrain, and 300hp on tap. More than solely a bump in displacement over the preceding 328, the car featured Ferrari’s first monocoque chassis structure incorporating innovations from Formula One development programs, resulting in improved handling and structural integrity.

The affectionately nicknamed “baby Testarossa” married Teutonic styling and modernized mechanics, sharing Pininfarina design penned by Leonardo Fioravanti with its V12 siblings. Its deep side strakes and a cockpit roomier over its predecessor brought the manufacturer into the 1990s at the forefront of luxury and performance. The 348 marked the end of an era requiring Ferrari drivers' three-pedal attention, available exclusively with a gated five-speed manual transaxle. Revered for its iconic design, serene exhaust note, and a historically significant clean slate design, the 348 remains a compelling investment at the heights of analog Italian sportscars.

This 1991 Ferrari 348 TS arrives finished in Nero over Nero Connolly leather. Of-the-era analog tech fills out tactile controls from the leather-wrapped steering wheel to a crisp gated manual shifter. Veglia Borletti instrumentation faces sumptuous passenger appointments complete with power-adjustable sport seating and black carpet mats. This example’s Scuderia Ferrari fender shields, pop-up headlights, and removable roof panel deliver a winning combination of open top sports purpose motoring. Beneath the surface, this driver’s car’s balanced mid-engine layout sends power rearward, while 17” chrome-5-spoke wheels hold the road. Four-wheel ventilated disc brakes and fully independent suspension ensure firm stopping power and nimble handling. Showing just 29k miles, this example’s 3-owner history shines with documented service, a clean title, and accident-free Carfax history.

According to the seller, records note installation of a new starter, ignition phase sensor, hood struts, oxygen sensor and crankshaft wiring phase sensor. Timing belt and water pump were given a clean bill of health by World Wide Ferrari in October of 2021 when a new starter was installed. Similarly, Lamborghini specialist Velocita Classica felt timing belt and water pump replacement wasn’t necessary when they replaced the Ignition Phase sensors, Oxygen sensors, Hood struts and Crankshaft wiring sensors.
