Introduced in 1996, the new 550 Maranello was a gran turismo clearly intended to fill the shoes of the legendary Daytona. Although based on the longer 456, whose engine it shared, it was distinctly upmarket. Despite strictly being a two-seater, the 550 Maranello offered a spacious and luxuriously appointed interior. There was plenty of room for luggage, including a full set of golf clubs.

Its rear-mounted six-speed manual transaxle gave better weight distribution as well as improving traction for the traditional front-engine, rear-drive chassis.
The result was most satisfying, achieving a top speed of 323 km/h and a dramatic 4.5 second sprint from 0-100 km/h.

Delivered new to Italy and comes with its original service booklet that has been stamped on the occasions. The car is finished in, "Blu Pozzi" over a "Tan leather" interior, and is in a good condition. It is offered with the aforesaid service booklet, statement manuals and Dutch registration papers.

The car has a valid Dutch registration and comes with APK (like MOT/TUV/CT).

The 550 Maranello is arguably one of the prettiest Ferraris ever produced, and with its classic 12-cylinder front engine and transaxle arrangement, it is a highly rewarding driver’s car.
