This 1996 Ferrari F355 Spider is finished in one of the ultimate color combinations for this shape- Giallo Modena over Black Leather. Showing just over 10,000 miles, this car has been well kept from new and remains in excellent condition throughout. When new, these cars were offered in 3 body styles: the Berlinetta like this one, a Spider, and a GTS with a removable targa-style top. Although every enthusiast has their own preference, it is undeniable that top-down driving is the ultimate way to experience the howling V8 right behind your head. Penned by the Pininfarina design studio, the F355 is an evolution of its predecessor, the 348, yet is arguably improved in every possible way. The interior of the F355 is beautiful in its simplicity. A pair of comfortable, nicely bolstered bucket seats are separated by a console that houses storage, buttons, and the all-important stainless shifter protruding from its metal gate. Sitting in the driver’s seat, a pod with 4 deeply hooded gauges sits in front of you, with three more auxiliary gauges in the lower center of the dashboard. This car comes from an era before screens became prominent features inside Ferraris, giving it a timeless, classic look inside. Sitting right behind the passenger compartment is what sets the F355 apart from any other Ferrari- the screaming flat-plane-crank 3.5 liter V8. Although the base of the engine isn’t tremendously different from that found in the 348, the F355 features brand-new 5-valve heads that increase flow dramatically and allow for a redline of 8,500 rpm. Producing 375 horsepower and 268 lb-ft of torque, the F355 is still fast today with a sub-5 second 0-60 mph time and a top speed in excess of 180 mph. The F355 was the first Ferrari to be offered with an F1-style paddle shift gearbox, which was offered alongside the 6-speed manual beginning in 1997. Although the technology was novel at the time, it does not stack up today and the 6-speed manual in this car is the only transmission to have in your F355. It is easy to fall in love with an F355 by just looking at the body, but the appreciation for the car only grows once you get behind the wheel. This example is in excellent condition overall, and when combined with the outstanding color combination, it truly fulfills the role of 1990s dream car.
