Todd, this is what you should do.
If you see a 355 with the exteriour colour with it, just go to google.com or any other search engine and type in : 355 Ferrari "insert the exteriour colour here" and press search.

Now you'll probably get a list of cars for sale with the searched colour.

Here's what I found on the Nart Blue (ok, it's a 360, but colour is the same) :

Pozzi :

TDF :

Ok it's not too clear which is what, but you'll get the clue after you've done some :-)
Still couldn't find a site with all the different colours on 'em :-(

Good luck on your quest

Bart,
I eventually want to buy a 355 Spider...I started doing a little homework on them and the dealer I went to gave me a brochure yet didn't have any info on the colors offered. I subscribe to Ferrari Market Letter and I see some color names that I don't understand like:

Nart, Pozzi, Tour DeFrance(I believe this is like a royal electric blue)

Also, I really like Titanium (Silver) but I thought there was another color out there (I can't remember what is was called) that was like a pewter color, sort of a cross b/w silver and blue...glacier-like.

Kind of weird that I can't get a hold of a brochure that simply shows you (I know they look different than the real thing)what colors they came in so I can start narrowing down my search.

Thanks guys!

Todd, sorry but I couldn't find anything else then the barchetta website.

It was the best site I could find with Ferrari colours.
May I ask why you are searching for this specific information ?

Maybe if you drop by an dealer they can tell/show you the colours, that's all I can think of right now. I'll search again, but don't expect to much of it.

As previously stated, there are more than 50 factory colors. Plus however many were ordered with 'match this' factory paint (hint--no two of these are exactly alike)

I went through the color selection catalog a couple of years ago.

It basically comes down to: there are two colors of red, and about 50 other standard colors. However if this does not suit your taste, you can supply a sample of any color (other than red) and for a smalll fee, Ferrari will match that color and paint the car as you desire.

When it comes to leather, there are about 20 colors/shades, and choice of thread colors, and piping color.

Any colors scheme is available on any of the cars.

Todd,

In Ferrari, if the color is available in their color selection box, it can be put on any of the models. It is not model specific. If you go to the color selection for Ferrari for 1999, you could get basically whatever you want in any of the available colors.

I agree with Jere.
It's better to see the colour on car rather than brochures.
They can't show the actual colour exactly.

Todd, this a nice site which lists the 2001 colours.
When you move the mouse over the colour, then you'll see the name, code.

Ferrari does not put colors in their brochures. It will be hard to come by some type of brochure that does. I do not trust the colors in brochures anyway. They tend to be off from what the actual color is.

I would like to know what colors were made available to buyers when the car was new. I would like to know the technical color along with the color the average joe calls them.

Example: Rosso Corsa=Red
Titanium Grigio=Silver

Or better yet, is there a brochure that I can obtain so I can actually see the colors offered with the 355 Spyder?

THANKS!
