1997 Ferrari F355 Spider | The Quail Auction 2026
1997 Ferrari F355 Spider | The Quail Auction 2026
Chassis No. ZFFXR48A8V0107153
The F355 marked a turning point for Ferrari's mid-engine V8 lineage, pairing the five-valve-per-cylinder engine architecture that gave the model its name with a chassis and aerodynamic package developed with input from Pininfarina during extensive wind tunnel testing. Of the three body styles offered, the Spider has long stood as the theatrical choice, combining open-air motoring with the drama of a flat-plane-crank V8 producing mechanical induction noise just behind the driver. Today, examples specified with the gated six-speed manual transmission are especially prized, representing the last generation of Ferrari's mid-engine V8 to exclusively offer a traditional manual transmission before the 1997 introduction of the paddle-shifted 355 F1.
This 1997 example is finished in one of the most sophisticated and uncommon colors offered on the F355, Verde Silverstone Metallic (607), a deep metallic green that suits Pininfarina's sculpted lines particularly well. The striking shade is complemented by a black convertible top and a Beige Connolly leather interior. According to its original stamped warranty card, this F355 Spider was sold new by Shelton Sports Cars in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on 27 December 1996, just in time for the new year. It would remain with its original owner until July 2003, at which point it was acquired by its next caretaker with 21,600 miles shown, according to its clean CARFAX report.
Following a series of subsequent ownerships, most recently in December 2025 the F355 was sent to Foreign Cars Italia of Greensboro, North Carolina, where it received an engine-out belt service along with air conditioning service, steering rack repairs, and a comprehensive annual maintenance checklist, with invoicing totaling nearly $15,000. This work, along with the balance of the car's maintenance history dating back to 1998, is documented in an accompanying history file. The car is further furnished with its service booklet and owner's manual housed in their original folio, tool kit, and two keys.
Offered with under 38,500 miles showing at cataloging, this Verde Silverstone F355 Spider presents a compelling opportunity to acquire a gated manual Spider finished in a genuinely distinctive color, backed by a well-documented ownership history and recent, thorough mechanical attention.
