    Collectors Dream! 1998 F355 Berlinetta presented in giallo color with nero interior. The Berlinetta was the first-ever road car to be equipped with the innovative F1-style gearbox management system. Ferrari produced 11,273 of the F355 over four years. Only 1,042 Berlinetta were equipped with the F1 transmissions.
    This well maintained 1998 F355 has only 13,875 original miles. The last engine out belt service was done in November of 2014 with 13,600 miles. Full service records. The carfax is clean! No accidents, zero body or paint work have been done! All sticky parts have been meticulously restored or replaced with original Ferrari parts! Car is upholstered with nero hides from Connolly Leather that are in perfect condition! Everything is original; radio, cd changer and mats It is also equipped with both a giallo rear grille AND the optional black challenge version. Car has all the original tools, tire repair kit, all manuals, alarm pin code, three keys, black and red FOBS, along with all original red silk covers; including car itself, seats and steering wheel. Car is outfitted with a tubi exhaust system which makes for the best sounding Ferrari you have ever heard!
    The car just received new Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires, Kevlar brakes, Optima Red Top Battery and full tune-up with California Smog. This is a no brainer and will appreciate faster than any current Ferrari out there!
    $99,995.00 Takes this Beauty Home!

    I've seen this car in person and I know the guy who refinished some of the parts :D

    Very, very solid car. Very meticulous owner that wanted everything perfect with the car!

    These photos don't show it, but Rob sent us the vents and paddles back to have them refinished again once we developed the laser graphic process so they do indeed have the vent arrows and "UP" and "DOWN" in white on the paddles :)

    Great car, Rob - good luck with this (not that you will need it!)

    Thanks for your responses! Here are a few more pictures of probably the most complete F-355 you are going to find. This car is super clean, runs awesome and has almost every available original accessory that came with the car!

    Attention potential F-355 buyers! I have decided that if a buyer is not found for this beautiful Berlinetta by the end of the month it will be shipped off to Pebble Beach's Russo and Steele Auction. This car will bring all the money there! It is absolutely stunning in person. You can see how rare this car is by the amount of red F-355 that are being offered vs. a truly unique classic like this Giallo Ferrari! I am willing to rebate the shipping and commission cost of $10,000 that it will cost me to a fellow F-chatter. This car can be purchased for $89,995!

    A real beauty!

    I've had my '98 F1 Berlinetta for 6 years now and can't imagine parting with it. Love the 355!

    GLWS.

    Love that color! They are great looking cars! I am thinking about just keeping it. I have to make room for a 550 maranello that is arriving on Tuesday though.

    I know I am biased, but I would not get rid of your 355 for a 550. I think you should keep that beautiful car.

    Price Drop! $84,995. I need the room for the Maranello that I purchased! This car is stunning example that is in mint shape and needs a good home.

    Hi Rob,

    I have some interest in taking a closer look. I recently purchased 430 and now looking closer for a 355 and a Testarossa. Let me know when I can take a look.

    Why I passed on this car a couple of years ago in New Mexico for $47500 I have no clue.

    It still looks just as stunning and has been well loved.

    It also have a Dave Helms major service under its belt.

    Kicking myself for passing...

    I am dropping down the price on this baby to $79,995. This car is absolutely stunning! Everything works, mint condition, has all the books, tools, service history and accessories. It's getting real hard stuffing my three toys in a two car garage! You will not be disappointed! This car can hold its own, not only in looks, but with performance with the best Ferrari's out there!

    Nice trio, Rob :)

    It mind blowing that this car has not sold.

    Friends, I have worked on the parts for this car and helped Rob buy it. He was totally OCD about making this car perfect. He wanted every detail perfect. I've been to his house and saw the car - it looks like it just rolled off the production floor in Maranello.

    He is giving the car away at this price! Someone buy this before my checking account gets lighter :)
