This 1997 Ferrari F355 GTS is a left-hand-drive car that was produced for the Japanese market, and it was specified in Modena Yellow over blue Connolly leather. The car shows 50k kilometers (~31k miles). It was purchased by its current owner in May 2024 and was imported into the United States approximately six months ago. Recent work has included an engine-out belt service and replacing the thermostat, valve cover gaskets, spark plugs, belts, and tires. Power is from a 3.5-liter DOHC V8 linked with a six-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip differential, and modifications include an Kreissieg exhaust system, a Capristo Exhausts bypass valve, Hill Engineering tensioner bearings, and a Pioneer Carrozzeria system. Additional features include a gated shifter, a removable body-color targa top, 18″ five-spoke magnesium wheels, pop-up headlights, a Challenge-style rear grille, and automatic climate control. This F355 GTS is now offered in California by the seller on behalf of the owner with service records, a tool kit, a spare set of wheels, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Montana title in the name of the owner’s LLC.
The Pininfarina-designed body is finished in Modena Yellow, and styling incorporates a removable body-color roof panel as well as pop-up headlights, integrated front fog lights, flying buttress C-pillars, a Challenge-style rear grille, an integrated rear decklid spoiler, quad exhaust outlets, a vented engine cover, and air intakes on the doors and rocker panels. The seller notes some variation in the shade of yellow paint across certain exterior panels.
The 18″ five-spoke magnesium wheels are mounted with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires, which show date codes from 2025. Ferrari-branded brake calipers are mounted over ventilated discs at each corner.
The cabin features sport seats trimmed in blue Connolly leather, and matching leather extends to the center console, door panel inserts, and lower half of the dashboard. A Pioneer Carrozzeria system has been installed. Amenities include a gated shifter, automatic climate control, drilled aluminum pedals, and Cornes-branded floor mats. A Yupiteru camera is stationed beside the rearview mirror. Bubbling is present on the passenger’s door sill.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 320-km/h speedometer, a 10k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure and coolant temperature. Ancillary instruments in the center stack include an analog clock and gauges for fuel level and oil temperature. The six-digit odometer shows 50k kilometers (~31k miles).
The mid-mounted 3.5-liter DOHC V8 features five valves per cylinder and dry-sump lubrication for a factory-rated output of 375 horsepower and 268 lb-ft of torque. The seller tells us that a Kreissieg exhaust system has been added. An engine-out belt service was performed earlier this year by F&M Motorsport in Los Angeles, California. Additional work included repainting the valve covers and installing a Capristo Exhausts bypass valve and Hill Engineering tensioner bearings. Additional work included fluids exchanges and replacing idler bearings as well as the thermostat, valve cover gaskets, spark plugs, belts, knock sensors, and air and fuel filters.
Power is routed to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip differential.
The sale includes a set of 18″ Speedline five-spoke wheels, all of which feature black-painted centers and are mounted with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires.
The Carfax report contains two entries from 2025. The car has not passed a California emissions test.
