1999 355 F1 Berlinetta - Rosso Corsa, Beige leather, Castoro carpets. This is the finest 355 in existence. It’s a platinum recipient, has only 4400 miles, comes with all original ancillaries, Ferrari Classiche Certified, and a 100 point winner - “Best in Class” at the Cavallino Classic. Very recent engine-out major service performed by one of the finest technicians in the country. Everything is precisely as it should be, exactly as it left the factory. There are absolutely zero issues with this car. It is in brand new condition. If you are a discerning buyer and want the very best of the best, this is your rare opportunity.
This 355 is absolutely perfect in every aspect - exterior, interior, mechanically. Whether you can see it or not, you’ll know that every element of this car is in premium working and cosmetic order. My intent with this listing is to be fully transparent and describe the car with complete accuracy. My hope is to find an equally passionate buyer. Let’s first address the basics:
