1995 Ferrari F355 Berlinetta

Launched at the 1994 Geneva International Motorshow, the Ferrari F355 boasted  leading edge automotive engineering and was quoted by Road & Track magazine as  having “probably the best sports-car engine ever made” (October 1994 Issue).  

The undisputed champion within its class the F355 is 95% aesthetically and  mechanically different to its predecessor, the F348 for all the right reasons. 

Engineered to excite, the F355 is lean, incredibly agile and broke records at the time for the specific output of a naturally aspirated production car engine – delivering a whopping 380hp from a lightweight 3.5 litre V8, it also rev's out to 8,500rpm and is possibly the best sounding V8 to ever come out of Maranello. 

The last of the great wedge profiles penned by Pininfarina, an aerodynamic fiberglass under tray that sucks the car to the road, electronic dampers to calculate road speed,  brake pressure, suspension load and steering movements, and a centrally mounted flat-plane V8 capable of launching the car from 0-100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds, the  F355 has a depth of brilliance no other manufacturer could match and is arguably more wholly more engaging driving experience than any modern Ferrari on offer today. 

Sold new in 1995, this iconic F355 was ordered new in super desirable and rare Giallo  Modena and originally delivered new to Hong Kong. Its current owner was based in  Hong Kong and relocated to Australia in 2005 and the car was part of the family so naturally, it had to come along with them down under.  

Residing in Sydney for the past 20 years, this Ferrari has been cherished and meticulously maintained by renowned local Ferrari specialists ever since. Its most recent major service included cambelts in May 2024. 

Accompanied with the sale is the original Ferrari leather tool kit as well as a host of  receipts documenting its maintenance history. 

Conjuring more hp per litre than the V12 in the McLaren F1, the F355 was and still is an excitingly fast car and today remains a crowd favourite amongst the 80s and 90s  generation.

As values continue to climb internationally it becomes ever harder to find and purchase great examples like this especially rare manual coupé in a killer colour combination. 

A viewing is an absolute must of this iconic Ferrari.
