About This Car

A beautifully presented 1996 Ferrari F355 Berlinetta finished in Grey with a striking and rare two-tone interior — red centre seat panels and carpets contrasting with grey outer bolsters and dashboard surround. This combination gives the cabin a distinctly period-correct and characterful feel that sets it apart from the more common all-black or all-tan specifications.

At its heart sits a 3.5-litre flat-plane V8 mounted transversely in a mid-engine layout, producing 375 horsepower and revving to a stratospheric 8,250 rpm. The engine features five valves per cylinder — a configuration unique to Ferrari at the time — and produces one of the most celebrated soundtracks in automotive history. The tactile, visceral connection between driver and machine remains unmatched by modern alternatives.

The body, penned by Pininfarina, remains one of the most beautiful Ferrari designs of the modern era. The flush side strakes, smooth underbody with integrated diffusers, and the low, wide stance gave the 355 genuinely innovative aerodynamic properties — generating meaningful downforce at speed without a single visible wing or spoiler.

By 1996 the F355 had hit its stride as a production car, with early teething issues resolved and the build quality at its most consistent. Today, the F355 Berlinetta is firmly established as a modern classic. Low-mileage, well-documented examples in desirable specifications are increasingly sought after by collectors who recognise its significance as the last of the truly analogue mid-engine Ferraris before electronics began to take a greater role.
