1999 Ferrari 550 Maranello
Overview
This 1999 Ferrari 550 Maranello offers a high point of enthusiast equipment and pre-millennium nostalgia. Finished in Blu Pozzi and solely offered with a six-speed gated manual transaxle, this example defines analog Italian grand touring. V12 motivation arrives powerful and responsive under its sculpted hood. Pininfarina styling plus 5-spoke alloy wheels, a limited-slip differential, and dealer-installed Tubi exhaust system fill out a wish list of collector-grade accoutrement.
Well-kept Beige leather w/Blue piping and coordinated carpets surround the cabin, accented by Easter egg details including Jaeger instruments and drilled aluminum pedals. Factory Sony XR-F20 AM/FM/Cassette audio (w/remote 6-disc CD changer), automatic climate control, and power-adjustable seats provide of-the-era luxuries with contemporary comfort. This 78k-mile Prancing Horse further benefits from long-term ownership, included service records, and clean Carfax history.
Ferrari’s 550 Maranello served as a pivotal platform for the manufacturer. The car garnered acclaim and adoration from stars such as Michael Schumacher (owner from 1996 to 2003), when he was challenging—and later winning multiple championships for Scuderia Ferrari in Formula 1. The period remains among the marque’s most aspirational, shared also by its F355 and F50 stablemates. In an ideal specification this stunning coupe makes the cut.
