This is a very original example of a non molested 550 that checks all the right boxes.

These cars are meant to be driven and low mileage examples are becoming harder to find. The classic gated 6 speed shifts flawlessly and the V12 exhaust note is intoxicating.Given the trajectory of the collector Ferrari market and the lower production numbers of this previous flagship (3083 examples produced) the upside to these cars is tremendous.

The Ferrari 550 Maranello (Type F133) is a front-engined V12 2-seat grand tourer built by Ferrari from 1996 to 2002. The 550 Maranello marked Ferrari's return to a front-engine, ear-wheel drive layout for its 2-seater 12-cylinder model, 3 years after the 365 GTB/4 Daytona had been replaced by the mid-engined Berlinetta Boxer.In 2000 Ferrari introduced the 550 Barchetta Pininfarina, limited production barchetta version of the 550, uilt in 448 examples. The 550 was replaced by the upgraded 575M Maranello in 2002.

Since 1973, hen the traditional front-engined 365 GTB/4 Daytona had been replaced by the mid-engined Berlinetta Boxer, errari's top-of-the-line 12-cylinder 2-seater model had used a mid-mounted 180° V12 flat engine. The Berlinetta Boxer had later been developed into the Testarossa, hose last evolution was the 1994 F512 M. Under the presidency of Luca Cordero di Montezemolo,[3] who took office in 1991, he F512 M replacement was developed as a traditional front-engined V12 grand tourer.

After a 30 months of development, he Ferrari 550 Maranello was presented in July 1996 at the Nürburgring racing circuit in Germany.[4] The model name referred to the 5.5-litres total engine displacement in decilitres and to the town of Maranello, ome to the Ferrari headquarters and factory. Pininfarina executed both the exterior and interior design.Frame and main engine components were shared with the 2+2 Ferrari 456, lthough at 2,500 mm (98.4 in) the 550's wheelbase was 100 mm (3.9 in) shorter. In 2002 the 550 was replaced by the 575M Maranello, ot an all-new model but rather an all-around improved version (modificata in Ferrari parlance) of the car, itted with a larger 5.75-litre engine. In total 3,083 units of the 550 Maranello were produced.
