Description
This particular 550 Maranello was sold new by authorised Ferrari dealer Auto Neuser to a German enthusiast. It was delivered with a striking Nero Daytona exterior, beautifully complemented by a Nero leather interior with Rosso stitching. The car came equipped with desirable options, including Daytona seats, the sought-after Fiorano Handling package, a leather rear shelf with elegant diamond stitching.
The car has always been exceptionally well-maintained, with a single exception the car has been serviced exclusively by Ferrari-authorised workshops, —initially by Auto Neuser in Germany, and later by Autoropa after the car was imported to Sweden.
When the current owner, a Swedish collector and perfectionist, acquired this Ferrari, he sought perfection. He addressed the common issue of sticky buttons. Additionally, the headlights were completely renovated. Notably, the car is fitted with a Sports exhaust system, although the original system is still intact and included with the sale.
As part of our standard procedure, MOTIKON conducted a full mechanical inspection of this vehicle and found no significant issues.
To conclude the 550 Maranello represents a bridge between the analog and digital worlds. It marked the return of Ferrari’s front-engine, two-seat V12 and is the last Ferrari with a drive-by-cable V12 engine and the last to be designed and developed with a manual gearbox in mind. Once overlooked, prices for the 550 Maranello are quickly rising. A low-mileage example in the same colour as this car recently fetched $368,000 at Gooding & Co's Monterey 2024 auction. Built in only 3,083 examples, the 550 Maranello is now regarded by our team of experts as not only a thrilling sports car but also a sound investment in the collectible Ferrari market.
With a service performed just 500 km ago, we present a fantastic example of one of Ferrari’s all-time greats. The car comes with extensive documentation, including Ferrari literature and service book. A full list of completed work, as well as the vehicle's history, pictures, and videos, can be provided upon serious interest. Do not hesitate to get in touch.
