1999 Ferrari 355F1 Spyder- in Canada, new leather, Major done, many improvements !

I have dearly loved this car over the last 5 years but retirement and future travel is motivating this sale !
This car has been a pleasure to own and any future owner is going to have a great ownership experience as well as I've spent just over $40,000 over the last 3 years to maintain and "improve" this fine car.

The all important “engine out” cam belt service has just been completed ( March 2014) a new high capacity water pump installed, new Michelin Pilot tires all around, stainless steel ceramic coated Fabspeed headers with a Maranello X-OST system (not too quiet..not too loud…just right !) Ferrari Fiorano sway bars front and rear for improved handling, a 360 model steering wheel, rear Challenge grill and a high end sound system with Focal speakers are just some of the upgrades.

I have also had both front seats re-covered in factory leather and converted to “Daytona” style (very rare) by BRADAN of New York. This car also comes with the extremely rare 3 piece, fitted Ferrari Shedoni fitted leather luggage which was a $6,000 option. There are too many upgrades and service items to list here.

The car also comes with every item that came with the car when new including all keys, key fobs, owners manuals, tool kit, car and seat covers and the original window sticker and sales invoices…everything.

A full maintenance and ownership history is included along with CARFAX report.

Here is a list of the things that have been done to the car and some unique features of this 1999 Ferrari 355 F1:

The mileage is 43,000 It's a US car so relatively easy for a US member to "bring her back home".

Thank you for the positive comments guys ! I've loved every minute of driving it...

One more thing I should have put in the ad....the car is absolutely perfect but for the air conditioning...which I never use anyway but I wanted to be totally upfront on it's condition.

Thought I'd add some better pictures of the interior and the seats....BRADAN did a great job !

Given that we are approaching the end of convertible season....I've lowered the price to $73,000 Canadian....which is about $65,500 US Like to have this gone before winter....

 

Bump !
