    I'm quite sure, but away from home at the moment so cannot verify, that this is the car that sold at the 2017 Gooding & Co. auction in Scottsdale, AZ. in January.
    I live in Scottsdale and spent some time looking over 95227 and it is truly a best in class example of a Serie Speciale.
    I bid up to my maximum and lost out to the new owner. With fees and taxes I suspect 95227 was bought well at around $100k all in.
    I am hoping 95227 sells at or close to $145k as this will help all of us who are passionate about the 348 series.

    I wont' sell my for $145K
    And my car is #10
    and was the one presented in LA show by Ferrari.
    Only 10000 mile on it.
    Sorry to tell all the 348 owners sell now for pinuts the real Ferrari and then go pay
    250,000 minimum for a modern one.
    348 are the last real Ferrari in my opinion.

    In 5 years you will look back and say I should have bought it.

    USA market SS and Challenge 348's are what all the big boys are looking to add to the collection. No longer for the faint of heart Ferrari buyer

    Very nice!!! Bottom line, the SS is a limited car that has become, and will continue to be very desirable over time. Don't doubt the value of these cars.

    Limited edition or not, the changes made to the TS to create the SS doesn't make it worth over double the price!

    The performance upgrade is negligible (5.3 secs to 60mph? - The factory 0~100Kph [62mph] time for the TS was 5.6secs, so it's 0~60mph would have been @ 5.4~5.5secs!) , and the cosmetic changes are in reality, pretty minor (and most of them are easily replicated on a standard TS!).

    It's said to be #65 so it is 95227. Platinum winner. So yeah, I agree-- this is a top shelf car worthy of top dollar.

    Agreed, at least when it comes to V8 cars. The 512 was the last real V12 car.

    :D

    But if you can afford the entry fee you can afford to convert it to standard tail lights.

    I'm having that feeling right now. About 3 years ago when I was looking to add a 348 I was bing offered a pretty nice SS for $44k. I ended up just buying my ~$30k beater 91. Now I kick myself and wonder what the hell I was thinking.. I could have has a SS. It wasn't quite as nice as the one this thread is about but pretty nice and I'll bet it would cost at least double now. I'm so stupid sometimes.

    Yep, V12. As the links Wade posted explain. :)

    1.) No one buys a 25 year old car for 0-60 performance.
    2.) Try to buy a pair of factory original Kevlar seats.
    3.) The SS has an upgraded gearbox with drop gears.
    4.) Try to buy a set of original SS tail light grill, spacers, and end caps. Not knock offs.
    5.) There are people that will pay more money for an original Ferrari limited series car, and yes sometimes much more.

    348000% correct

    My entire life I have been buying special edition / low production cars with great enjoyment

    The SS and Challenge are some of the best examples pre OBD of any brand

    Those seats are the most uncomfortable things ever. I ride with lumbar cushions on longer drives. But they are MONEY! 😁
