Spider - Dealer Service - Manual - German Delivered

"I just can't see any way they could make it better. The nicest car I have ever, ever driven. I have to have one."
– Jeremy Clarkson

The Ferrari F355 debuted in 1994 and instantly made the 348 look like an Italian intern spilling espresso on his first day. This wasn’t a facelift or a minor update — this was Ferrari reinventing itself in the way that only Ferrari can.

Under the bonnet: a 3.5-litre V8 with five valves per cylinder (cinquevalvole — it sounds like a serenade, but feels like tinnitus). It screams all the way up to 8,500 rpm, as if it's trying to escape its own engine bay. No rumble, no burble — just pure, unfiltered Ferrari.

And because Italians never do things halfway, they made a Spider version. Why keep that sound to yourself when you could experience it under the Tuscan sun, roof down, hands in the air? For the first time, the convertible top was fully electronic — no scouting badge required to open or close it.
The rest? Pininfarina design, 1,800 hours of wind tunnel testing, and lines so elegant they practically demand a kiss on the fender. Elegance and arrogance in perfect harmony.

The F355 Spider isn’t just a car — it’s a masterclass in how it should be done. The chassis is razor-sharp, the steering so direct it activates your sweat glands in the corners, and the engine... pure madness. And then, of course, there’s the gated manual gearbox: click, clack — goosebumps.
Forget your DSGs, your paddles, your algorithm-driven shifts — this is mechanical perfection. You don’t talk to this car, you yell at it. And it yells right back.

Now, for the serious part. Our example is exactly how you'd want it. Originally delivered in Frankfurt, impeccably maintained, fully stamped service book, and fitted with all the right options: Rosso Corsa paint, black leather interior, Ferrari Shields, painted brake calipers, and the Challenge rear grille.
And yes — the holy grail: a 6-speed gated manual. No compromises. No clickbait-Ferrari. This is the F355 Spider purists dream about. The difference between a nicely kept car… and a real collector’s piece.

See you soon?

“Even after many years in motoring journalism, and driving quite a few Ferraris, the F355 ranks as one of my all-time favourite cars. I’d have one in a heartbeat.” Brian Silvestro, Road & Track.
