Belgian origin, Blu Le Mans and manual gearbox. The perfect combo!
- Rightly considered to be one of Ferrari's most beautiful saloon cars, the F355 was unveiled to the press in May 1994 and was an instant success. Resolutely modern, the lines are taut and racy, without forgetting the aesthetic codes that made up the DNA of Maranello production thanks to Pininfarina's design. Technically, the 380 bhp of the Formula 1-derived five-valve-per-cylinder V8 and the rigidity of its chassis enabled it to outperform the competition and put its predecessor in the shade, thanks to corrected running gear that gave it unrivalled precision.
- Today on the collector's market, the F355 is rightly recognised alongside the 550 Maranello as the symbolic link between a bygone era and Ferrari's entry into the modern era. Considered a 'must-have' by early collectors and the new generation of buyers alike, the F355 is a pillar of the brand.
- Our F355 Spider was delivered to Ferrari Francorchamps in June 1995 in this very elegant Blu Le Mans colour combination on a navy blue leather interior. In 2015, it entered the garage of a major Ferrari collector in the East of France, who kept it until 2022, when the current owner acquired it.
- Today, the car has less than 62,000 km on the clock and is in very good overall condition. There are no notable defects in the bodywork, and the upholstery and soft top are very well preserved. The current owner has invested nearly €30,000 between 2023 and 2024 to restore the car to perfect mechanical condition. On the menu: complete overhaul of the engine, timing system, change of clutch, replacement of catalytic converters and exhaust system (invoices available on request). The car is now running perfectly well: the V8 is a delight, especially when coupled with the legendary manual gearbox. Of course, the duplicate service booklet, manuals and tool kit are still with the car.
- The F355 is a collector's item in its own right, and one that leading collectors are beginning to study. This example really does tick all the boxes, and is presented with a very reasonable estimate!
