Factory Fiorano Handling Package | Grigio Titanio Metallizzato | Beige Leather | Carbon-Fiber Interior | Recent Major Service | ~19,596 Miles
This 2001 Ferrari 550 Maranello is a highly optioned, low-mileage example finished in Grigio Titanio Metallizzato over Beige leather and equipped from the factory with the desirable and RARE Fiorano Handling Package & Carbon Trim. The window sticker included with the car confirms the specification, including the Fiorano package and an unusually extensive selection of interior options, while the original window sticker reflects a total suggested retail price of approximately $228,205 when new.
The 550 Maranello represents one of Ferrari's great modern-era grand touring formulas: a naturally aspirated front-mounted V12, six-speed gated manual transmission, rear-wheel drive, and restrained Pininfarina styling. This example combines that analog configuration with a particularly sophisticated color combination and the factory Fiorano package, making it a compelling specification among 550s.
The car now shows approximately 19,596 miles. The accompanying history documents and the service file contain extensive specialist maintenance and repair records, including substantial work performed under current ownership by Sphere Motorsports and H&S Motorsport in Houston. Recent work has addressed major age-related 550 items including timing-belt and front-engine service, water pump, fuel-system components, cooling-system service, tires, fluids, and numerous ancillary items.

Rare Factory Specification
The specification is one of the defining features of this 550. Ferrari documentation identifies the car as Grigio Titanio Metallizzato over Beige leather and confirms option code HDL1, the Fiorano Handling Package. For an enthusiast shopping specifically for a 550, the documented factory Fiorano configuration is an important distinction and should not be confused with later suspension modifications or an aftermarket setup.
The car was also ordered with extensive carbon-fiber interior trim, listed at approximately $7,120 on the original window sticker, along with aluminum-finish brake calipers, Beige-colored interior trim details, and a diamond-pattern 250 GT-style headliner. Together with the understated Grigio Titanio paintwork, these options give the car a much more unusual specification than a typical 550.

Service History
2019 - Specialty Car Solutions, Houston
The car received diagnostic and general service attention around the beginning of its Texas ownership, including powertrain/module diagnosis, inspection-related work, and attention to various electrical and usability items.
2020 - Sphere Motorsports, Houston
A broad sorting program addressed a number of age-related items. Records document oil and filter service, brake-fluid/brake work, fuel-system attention, window-related work, air-conditioning and interior items. Later in 2020 the alternator and battery were replaced.
2021 - Major Sphere Motorsports service
A substantial repair order documents timing-belt-related service together with numerous additional items, including A/C compressor work, clutch-related work, oxygen sensors, fuel pumps, and other mechanical service. The associated repair order totals approximately $14,182. An alignment was also recorded later in 2021.
2022-2023 - Cylinder-head and engine work by Sphere Motorsports
The records document significant engine work involving cylinder-head removal/service, piston-ring work associated with cylinder No. 6, replacement of cylinder-head gaskets, valve guides and seals, valve-seat work, related gaskets/components, and a light cylinder-head skim. The work is documented by specialist invoices; it should be described as cylinder-head/engine service rather than a complete engine rebuild. The corresponding major repair order is approximately $9,084.
2023 - Fuel/vapor-system service
Additional Sphere Motorsports work addressed fuel smell and evaporative/fuel-system concerns, including rollover-valve and carbon/vapor-canister-related components. Recorded mileage was approximately 17,834.
2024 - Sphere Motorsports
At approximately 18,292 miles the car received additional work including A/C refrigerant service, battery replacement, cooling-system checks, and fuel-tank removal/reinstallation in connection with fuel-system and vapor-system service. The related invoice package is approximately $8,390.
2024-2025 - H&S Motorsport major service
H&S diagnosed a significant engine front-cover oil leak and performed an extensive front-engine service. The repair order documents front-cover resealing along with timing-belt-related components, water pump, front-cover gaskets/seals, tensioner/idler-related components, spark plugs, accessory belt, engine oil and filter, air filter, power-steering fluid, brake fluid, coolant, engine re-timing, and cooling-system pressure testing. The same repair order includes four new tires, hood struts, battery-related work, wheel refinishing, and additional maintenance. The invoice total is $21,081.
2025-2026 - H&S Motorsport fuel-system service
Following a complaint of fuel odor with the tank near full, H&S diagnosed leakage in the fuel-pump gasket area. The tank was removed and the fuel pumps were resealed with new gaskets and related components. Rollover-valve seating was also addressed. The cooling system was investigated and pressure tested after a temperature concern; the invoice states no cooling-system fault was found at that time. The related repair order totals approximately $6,208.

The CARFAX history report notes front-end damage in January 2021. The seller reports that in 2021, while traveling at approximately 20 mph, the car encountered a raised manhole/pothole and bottomed out, resulting in an impact to the underside of the car. The impact triggered deployment of both front airbags and a small crack in the windshield.
The car was subsequently repaired by Sphere Motorsports in Houston, Texas. Repairs included replacement of the front windshield, driver and passenger airbags, airbag control unit, front lower under panel, right-front lower suspension arm, and an oil-line support. A damaged front crossmember/support was also removed and replaced and refinished. The front bumper was repaired/refinished, and a four-wheel alignment and road test were subsequently performed.
As confirmed by the owner, the incident occurred at low speed and resulted from the car bottoming on the roadway obstruction.
With its factory Fiorano Handling Package, Grigio Titanio over Beige color combination, extensive carbon-fiber interior specification, gated six-speed manual gearbox, naturally aspirated V12, sub-20k-mile odometer reading, and a deep file of specialist service records, this 550 presents as an unusually well-specified example of Ferrari's modern-classic front-engine grand tourer. The car is offered with factory documentation, its original window sticker, vehicle-history documentation, and the extensive service records summarized above.
