Overview

Spiritual successor to the 348, Ferrari's F355 revived the manufacturer's appeal en masse. Configured in Berlinetta, Spider, and GTS body styles, either a gated six-speed manual transmission or Ferrari's first deployment of its high take-rate F1 automated gearbox could be specified. Exiting the 1980s, the new model’s softened styling and fine appointments warmed buyers to a new high standard in performance cars. A sonorous exhaust note and Pininfarina form served to elevate the F355 to an ethereal realm.  

.

This 1997 Ferrari F355 Spider is finished in Rosso Corsa over Beige leather and a Black convertible top. Inside, natural leather surroundings meet Veglia Boretti instrumentation, a Momo steering wheel, and a gated six-speed manual transmission for instant analog time travel. Its 3.5L V8 produces 375 horsepower and 268 lb. ft. of torque, transferred to the road by a limited-slip differential and staggered-width 18" magnesium wheels clad in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires. Over $18k in recent maintenance and a major service within the last 6 months presents the next owner with many miles of sublime top-down motoring to come. This example is sold with a clean title, Carfax report, and third-party inspection report.
