    1997 Ferrari F355 Spider
    6-Speed Manual
    Swaters Blue / Blue Convertible Top / Tan Interior

    - Well maintained and tastefully upgraded
    - Currently 21,750 Miles
    - Clean North Carolina title in hand
    - Two keys, two remotes
    - Two new embroidered floor mats, not pictured here
    - Additional Pictures available upon request

    Owned since September 2014, and selling due to recent purchase of a 360 Coupe (not enough room for both!). Records dating from 2002 to Present are available upon request in PDF format.

    This car is in very good overall condition for the age. Everything to knowledge functions correctly, including the convertible top.

    New Battery and Michelin tires installed in September 2014 have ~2,100 miles on them. Last Major Service performed prior to 2014, but MANY items on the car have been repaired/replaced as needed or recommended.

    Upgrades during current ownership include the following:

    - LLumar AIR80 Window Film on (Glass) Windows for virtually clear, stock-looking glass with high heat/UV ray rejection
    - Blaupunkt Toronto 420BT AM/FM/CD/USB/Bluetooth Stereo
    - JL Audio XD400/4 Amplifier
    - JL Audio C2-650 Component Speaker Set (Doors and Dash)
    - JL Audio C2-525cw Woofers in Custom-Fabricated, Leather-Wrapped Rear Speaker Enclosures
    - "De-Stickied" Switches and Panels, with Real Carbon Fiber Interior Overlay Kit
    - Complete Interior/Exterior LED Lighting Conversion--extremely bright and crisp lighting at every single location, with added Kick Panel Lights!

    For full disclosure, the most recent Check Engine Light codes were related to Bank 2, Sensors 1 & 2 Slow Response (P0153 and P0159), but have been addressed, as detailed in the maintenance records available for review. The car has been driven roughly 60 miles since, with no issues. Whenever there have been any problems with the car whatsoever during current ownership, they have been emissions-related (O2 sensors, etc.) or accessory-related (A/C recharge, etc.) and were addressed immediately. This car has not ever presented any catastrophic failures or major issues, and is a sheer pleasure to look at and drive!

    $71,500 or best reasonable offer

    Call/text John at (919) 414-2537

    I am listing on behalf of a good friend of mine and am NOT a dealer, but have been involved with this car since purchase in 2014. I can answer all questions related to maintenance, driving and operation, as well as facilitate all aspects of the sale.

    A new Ferrari Exhaust Header (Left Side) and Exhaust Manifold Gasket were installed last July. I am honestly unsure of the status of the Valve Guides but there have not been issues reported or addressed related to those over the course of this ownership which began in September, 2014.

    I will be glad to email any interested parties the complete record history which dates back to November, 2002 that I have available in PDF format. Private Message, or call/text anytime at (919) 414-2537.

    Jesus christ, that's gorgeous. If I wasn't hunting down a TR and the 355 wasn't lower on my list, I'd grab that. Hot damn.

    Swaters blue is a gorgeous color! I've seen it in real life a couple of times and pics don't do it justice.
