To say Ferrari owners are a discerning bunch is serious
understatement. Generally speaking, they are very knowledgeable
about the differences in, and performance specifications of, the
various models of these fine Modena, Italy-crafted sporting
automobiles. And they know exactly what they like. One more thing
about Ferrari owners and their automobiles: They stand out from the
crowd. With all that in mind, this 1997 F355 3.5-liter V8 Spider is
certain to check all the boxes for a good number of prospective
Ferrari owners. Truly beautiful is nearly everyone's reaction to
the wind-tunnel-perfected Pininfarina design. The soft-top model
not only gives the occupants the added joys of open-air motoring,
it also allows them to better appreciate the exhaust music
emanating from the mid-ship-mounted V8, just inches behind them.
Many believe F355s boast the best engine sound of any Ferrari V8,
and that's saying something. Its 375-horsepower performance aside,
the engine is a visual delight, a work of pure automotive art. And
the perfectly matched 6-speed gated chrome shifter engages the
driver in a way few other automobiles-and none with automatic
transmissions-can match. This car's stand-out Modena Yellow paint,
black-fabric folding top and classic black-leather upholstery check
even more boxes. What's more, at just over 36,000 miles-less than
2,000 miles per year-the car's prior owners have clearly treated it
with the respect Ferraris deserve. The number of CarFax-documented
inspections and regular service-frequently by authorized Ferrari
dealers and specialty shops- further underscores the point. A close
visual inspection of the condition of the paint, wheels and tires,
underbody, engine compartment, fabric top, leather seats and
interior surfaces adds lots more proof of a well-loved automobile.
Even the factory-supplied tool kit-a thing of beauty in itself-and
the leather carrying case are complete and included. Be sure to
check out all the photographs, video and complete CarFax document
available on our main website: Garage Kept Motors. By all means,
get in touch with us soon if this stand-out Italian classic has
checked all the boxes for you. Chances are, another Ferrari
aficionado is reading this and thinking the same thing.
