This 1998 Ferrari 355 Berlinetta was acquired by the seller on BaT in October 2020 and subsequently retrofitted with a six-speed manual transaxle sourced from a donor 355. The car is finished in Rosso Fiorano and has been further modified with Morimoto LED taillights and aftermarket 19” forged magnesium wheels as well as a three-spoke steering wheel and carbon-fiber bucket seats trimmed in beige and black leather. Power comes from a 3.5-liter DOHC V8, and additional equipment includes a limited-slip differential, Quicksilver exhaust manifolds, and a Capristo exhaust system with catalytic-converter-delete pipes. The clutch, pressure plate, throw-out bearing, master cylinder, and slave cylinder were replaced at the time of the gearbox installation, and an engine-out service was performed in January 2026. This 355 shows 34k miles and is now offered in Colorado with a clean Carfax report and a clean Alaska title in the seller’s name.
The Pininfarina-designed body is finished in Rosso Fiorano, and styling elements include pop-up headlights, integrated front fog lights, an integrated rear decklid spoiler, a Challenge-style rear grille, quad exhaust outlets, a vented engine cover, and air intakes on the doors and rocker panels. Morimoto XB LED taillights have been installed along with Ricambi polyurethane front skid plates. The seller notes that the front bumper cover and fenders have been repainted, and that chips on the hood and front valance were touched up in 2024. There is a chip on the A-pillar and blemishes on the bodywork behind the wheels. Photos of paint meter readings are provided in the gallery below.
The 19” wheels are said to be forged magnesium components from Augment Wheel Company, and they are mounted with 235/35 front and 285/30 rear Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. Ferrari-branded brake calipers are mounted over ventilated discs at each corner.
The cabin has been fitted with aftermarket carbon-fiber bucket seats that are said to have been retrimmed in Connolly leather sourced from Zanasi. Interior features include a gated shifter, a cassette stereo, air conditioning, and drilled aluminum pedals. The seller notes that sticky buttons have been refinished. The defroster is noted to make a clicking sound when the car is started. There is a stain on the emergency brake lever boot.
A three-spoke, non-airbag steering wheel has been installed, and instrumentation includes a 200-mph speedometer, a 10k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure and coolant temperature. Ancillary readouts in the center stack include an analog clock and gauges for fuel level and oil temperature. The six-digit odometer shows 34k miles, approximately 3k of which were added under current ownership.
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 notes that an engine-out service performed in January 2026 included powder-coating the valve covers, reconditioning the intake manifolds, and rebuilding the cylinder heads with replacement valve guides, valve stem seals, and intake/exhaust valves as well as changing various belts, bearings, pulleys, and tensioners. The radiators, fans, engine mounts, and hood struts are also said to have been replaced under current ownership.
The six-speed manual transaxle is said to have been sourced from a donor 355 and installed in 2025. The clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing, master cylinder, and slave cylinder were replaced prior to installation. The car is equipped with a Capristo exhaust system with catalytic-converter-delete pipes, and the seller notes that Quicksilver exhaust manifolds have been installed in the factory clamshells.
Factory literature, workshop manuals, service records, and parts invoices are included in the sale.
Assorted spare and removed parts will also accompany the car along with a set of 18” wheels. The seller notes that the included accessories and parts are in Kentucky and will have to be shipped separately.
The Carfax report is free of accidents or other reported damage. The listed lien has been released.
