Wanted 1999 Ferrari 355 Fiorano, factory gated Manual only

That's going to be a tough one. I've been looking myself for 2 years.

 

Are there any? I’m under the impression that all the fioramo series were f1 by design? Please educate me

 

I believe that is correct!!

 

Not correct. Supposedly 74 F1s and 26 manuals. Search old threads here and you will find some.

 

No, there were a few manuals. I had a client with one. Shopping for one for sale is almost certainly not going to be fruitful. The few I have known all had several unsolicited open offers long, possibly years before the sale and the cars were never advertised or put on the market. In every case an owner, not looking to sell took an offer he could not refuse. Find a car, bring your checkbook and ask how much it will take. Do not play Monte Hall or you will be asked to leave.

 

The last and only one manual car I have seen for sale was about 6-7 years ago and I believe it was at Ferrari of Long Island. Asking price was $75,000 back then.

 

I had #34 and it was a manual.

 

Someone was able to track down 11 of them. Yours would be number 12 .

10 or 11 is what I knew of. Good Luck

Wants something even more rare, find the Fiorano luggage by Schedoni.

 

Wow! Got a pic?

Always learn something new about the 355 .

Apparently, only 4 Fiorano luggage sets ever made. Not as nice looking as the standard set though.

Are those wheels different or is it an illusion?

Looks standard to me.

 

seemed like there was more of a flat spot there...like the spoke ended before the rim.

This was mine, and it did not come with the luggage.

The luggage looks a lot better in person than in that pic. The center part is a touch of carbon fiber and reads "Serie Fiorano"

I think there were more than 4 sets built though, Simone once told me more like 12-15.


As for the wheels, unlike the 348 Series Special, the 355 wheels are the same.

 

There's probably someone out there that can find you one...

Done it once, after all

I'll let you know ASAP.

 

Look what we have here .

Wow, never seen these before!

 

Unless you own a set, these are the first public pictures ever seen outside of Ferrari marketing brochures.

 

I believe only 6 were made with gated 6 speed. Continental Ferrari in Hinsdale Illinois has one.

Their own ad says 74 were F1 and 26 were 6-speed?

 

Shortly after I was lucky enough to pick up my gated 6 Fiorano #39 (Giallo Modena/Beige) I put together an unofficial list of all the gated 6s I could find and was able to account for all but one or two, most with their assembly numbers as well. It looks like 2 of the 26 are no longer with us. Fiorano #20 (Rosso Corsa/Beige) burned and #35 (Nero/Nero) has been listed as salvage. And then there were 24?
