The Ferrari 550 Maranello is widely regarded as one of the most iconic Grand Touring models in Ferrari's modern history. By returning to the classic front-engine V12 and rear-wheel-drive layout, Ferrari introduced in 1996 a worthy successor to the legendary Daytona. The combination of a naturally aspirated V12, a six-speed manual gearbox and a perfectly balanced chassis delivers a driving experience that is widely considered one of the purest ever offered by Ferrari.

This 1997 example is presented in outstanding original condition, according to the inspection report, and is finished in the elegant Grigio Titanio colour, one of Ferrari's most timeless GT shades. The car retains its authentic character and offers everything collectors are looking for today: a naturally aspirated V12, a 6-speed manual transmission, and the timeless elegance of a true Ferrari Grand Tourer. Furthermore, this Ferrari will turn 30 years old in January 2027, an important milestone for collectors and enthusiasts. In many European countries, the car may then qualify for historic vehicle status, potentially providing significant tax advantages, depending on local regulations. Combined with its limited production, exceptional performance and steadily increasing collectability, the Ferrari 550 Maranello is widely recognised as one of the most desirable modern Ferraris ever built.
