  1. Hi everyone. I am new here and a soon to be Ferrari owner. I am looking for a 1999 Ferrari F355 Berlinetta, Giallo Modena (Fly Yellow) with a black interior. I was wondering if any of you know the options that was avalible for the car. I know I want the Fiorano sport package, but that is the only option I know of. So if anyone could please post an option sheet it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    You should probably check out ferrari of ontario...they have a 1999 yellow/black series fiorano with appx 12500 km..it's the only f355 ive ever seen advertised in canada with the package...but its the full blown series rather than the option.
    Its visible on their website. www.ferrariofontario.com

    It has a lot of extra options like carbon fibre interior pieces,suede wrapped wheel,etc....Good luck!

  3. Thanks. I'll check that out. When I buy my F355 I want it to be exactly how I want it with all of the options I want and none of the options I don't want. I don't care if it takes me the rest of the year to find the right car, I'll find it. I don't mind if I find the car outside Canada either, as long as I find it.
     
  4. I just checkout out the car. It's not what I am looking for, it's a Spider and I want a Berlinetta. Thanks anyways.

    By the way, do all of the F355's with the Fiorano package have an F1 transmission?

    One thing to remember about the "outside of Canada" cars is the conversions required, ie $15k bumpers etc!
     
  6. Yes, I know. I am willing to pay it as long as it gets me my car.

    I don't think that the Fiorano handling package was available on anything other than the 355 spider Fiorano. I could be wrong though.
     
  8. I don't know. Why would they have a big track package only avalible on a convertible? I'm sure it's avalible on the Berlinetta.
     
  9. Does anybody know the avalible options for the F355? Anybody?

  11. Well, I did some research on the Fiorano sport package for the F355. Turns out it was only offered in limited 1999 355 F1 Spider's and was not avalible on the Berlinetta and GTS models, oh well. So far, the only options I know are avalible for the F355 are the Ferrari shields on the fenders, a front and rear challange grill, and a 3-piece fitted luggage set. With the exeption of the rear challange grill, I want them all. Can someone list the rest of the options for the F355? Thanks.

    A spare tire was an option but it takes up most of the trunk space. Also avail as a retrofit kit.
     
  13. Do you know if the fitted luggage will still fit in the trunk with a spare tire?

    I have not been able to find any information on the "Schumacher Edition" that this Swedish dealer sold.

    I wonder if it might be the Euro name for the 99 Fiorano version. I thought the Fiorano was pretty much a U.S. car, with maybe a handful delivered in Europe.

    Den tuffa Schumacher Edition 355:an, med sportstolar, fiorano handlingpackage, challengegrill sportavgassystem m.m. köptes av Christer i Borås. Därmed har han en av de tuffaste och sportigaste 355:eek:rna i stan. Ett stort grattis!! "


    Translation of the equipment: Sportseats, fiorano handling package, challenge grille, sport exhaust etc.

    No mention of the carbon fiber.
     
  16. That fits the description of the 1999 Ferrari F355 Spider Fiorano, yet it is a Berlinetta. I was sure that the Fiorano package was only offered it the forum of a convertible, which is odd because you would with that a big track package like that would be offered in the Berlinetta or GTS. Maybe the F355 Berlinetta Fiorano was only avalible in Europe.

    It seems to be something different. There was a "Fiorano Handling Package" option available, which is different than the Fiorano Edition (which included the handling package, brakes, grille, carbon fiber etc.) or this alleged Schumacher Edition that I have not found any information on.

  19. So I guess the Fiorano sport package is avalible for the F355 Berlinetta. Great!
     
  20. Well, I finally have a list of the options avalible for the F355. Here it is:

    Fiorano track package *
    Challange front grill *
    Challange rear grill
    Sceduria Ferrari shields on fenders *
    3-piece fitted luggage set *
    modular wheels ^
    leather racing seats ^
    6-disk CD changer
    Carbon roof panal (GTS only)
    a variety of carbon interior enhancements ^

    The options with stars are the options I want on my car. The options with the arrows are options I am not sure if I want, so will people please post pictures of the options with arrows? Thanks.
     
  21. Do you know if the Fiorano track package was only avalible with an F1 transmission?
     
  22. Does anybody have any pictures of the F355 with the options that have arrows (^) beside them?
     
  23. Come on, anybody?
