The Fiorano represents the final F355 produced by Ferrari and was a truly special car; it topped a line which will
forever be installed with the pantheon of great cars. The F355 Serie Fiorano's production was limited to a run of
100 cars, all of which are spiders.
The Fiorano is easily identified by its lowered stance, the result of a revised suspension based on that of the
Competizione racing variant. Further racing influences on this special model are the red brake calipers, racing
brake pads, and cross-drilled rotors which compliment the drilled aluminum pedals found within the car. This F355
has the feel of a race car due to reprogrammed electronically-controlled shock absorbers, larger antiroll bars,
stiffer springs, and quicker steering ratio.
Serie Fiorano is distinguished by interior Carbon Fiber accoutrements, suede-covered steering wheel and a silver
plaque inscribed with the car's production number on the dashboard. To distinguish it's limited production the
Fiorano's exterior is adorned with a black Challenge rear grill and factory-mandated enamel Scuderia Ferrari
shields. These are not the typical glued on variety you see on so many other Ferraris. Instead, these are properly
recessed into the fenders by Ferrari.
For 1999, Ferrari introduced a limited production of F355 Spider models designated, "Serie Fiorano" Launched in
March, 1999, this limited production run of 100 planned units (104 actually produced) included a number of
performance enhancements:
Here is a list of modifications that make the Fiorano not just a rare car but a more focused driver's car as well:
1. Red brake calipers
2. Suede steering wheel
3. Dedication number plaque
4. Rear challenge grill
5. Carbon fiber interior accents (Console/trim around radio and three gauges above)
6. Carbon fiber F1 paddles
7. Carbon Fiber center console
8. Scuderia shields recessed in front fenders
9. Competizione-derived Fiorano suspension package-(consists of stiffer front and rear springs, lowered ground
height, dedicated set up for the steering device, providing less assistance at low speeds and racing type brake
pads mounted on red calipers.)
10. Challenge rack
11. Front/rear challenge roll bar
12. Stiffer rate coil springs
13. Shock ECU specific to Fiorano setup
14. Drilled and ventilated brake discs
15. Carbon Fiber Door Sills
This is a rare example of an attractive model with the major belt serviced having recently been completed. The
Fiorano edition gives the car tasteful additions and makes its extreme rarity particularly attractive to the
collector. With the car comes the owner's manual pack and toolkit.

Former Dolphin Richie Incognito takes a bat to his own Ferrari [w/video]
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Richie Incognito, the former Miami Dolphin's offensive lineman, reportedly vandalized his own new Ferrari FF with a baseball bat on Wednesday, in a story that is just the latest bizarre event to befall the professional football player.
Initial reports indicated that Incognito's car was vandalized and, weirdly, covered in t-shirts bearing the player's name. Following those reports, though, Incognito then told police that he attacked the black FF, although we're still unsure as of why.
Incognito has been in the news of late, following reports from the Miami Dolphins regarding his hazing of teammate Jonathan Martin. As for the Ferrari, damage seems rather light considering it was attacked with a bat by a 320-pound NFL offensive lineman. There are some dings and dents in the hood, and there's a piece of bat lodged in the grille, but beyond that, it looks like this FF will live to drive another day. Scroll below to watch a brief video report on the supercar beatdown.
Bonhams auction at Quail Lodge led by 1959 Ferrari 250 GT Competizione
Sat, Aug 15 2015It doesn't take too much knowledge of the classic car market to figure out that, when it comes to values, Ferrari leads the pack. Bonhams 2015 Quail Lodge Auction did absolutely nothing to buck that trend with four of the five top sellers bearing the Prancing Horse. While none came near the auction house's sale of a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO for $38.115 million last year, there were still beauties in the bunch. The leader among these thoroughbreds was a 1959 Ferrari 250 GT Competizione Alloy Berlinetta (pictured above) that went for $8.525 million, including the buyer's premium. It was one of just seven vehicles made to this specification and raced extensively when new, scoring a win in competition at Watkins Glen. A classic 1971 Ferrari 365 GTS/4 Daytona Spider brought $2.64 million, and a somewhat more modern 1985 288 GTO had the hammer drop at $2.365 million. The final Prancing Horse in the top five was a 1951 212 Inter Cabriolet with a body by Vignale for $2.2 million. It scored second-in-class at the 2014 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. Overturning the Ferrari trend, a 1955 Lancia Aurelia B24S Spider America rounded out the top five with a sale price of $1,952,500. While these are the most expensive vehicles to cross the block, you can check Bonhams' website for the results on all 111 lots. It's a wonderful array of largely European sports cars that are all in top shape.
Ferrari F12 TdF debuts at Finali Mondiali event at Mugello
Mon, Nov 9 2015It's been almost a month since Ferrari revealed the new F12 TdF. But outside of a select cadre of customers, nobody has gotten to see it until this weekend at the Mugello circuit in Italy. The TdF is the more extreme version of the F12 Berlinetta similar to how the 599 GTO was an upgraded 599 GTB Fiorano, or the 458 Speciale an upgraded 458 Italia. It benefits from a more potent version of the Berlinetta's 6.3-liter V12 producing 769 horsepower and 520 pound-feet of torque. It also features a rear-wheel steering system, 87 percent more downforce, and 240 pounds less weight to motivate. The result is a 0-62 time of 2.9 seconds, a top speed of over 211 miles per hour, and a Fiorano lap time of 1:21. A trio of TdFs hit the track this weekend at Mugello Β one of several circuits owned by Ferrari in Italy Β located in the Tuscan countryside and frequent venue for motorcycle and DTM races. It also played host this weekend to the Finali Mondiali Β the company's year-end racing spectacle where the winners of the various Ferrari Challenge series duke it out for top honors, where private owners (as part of the Corse Clienti program) are invited to drive their racing and XX track machinery, and where Ferrari often unveils something new. In addition to the F12 TdF's debut, this year saw the presentation of the 488 GTE and GT3 racers as well. Both Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen were on hand to show off what the TdF could do in front of the cheering crowds. With only 799 examples to be built (and all of them rumored to have already been sold), this may present the closest opportunity you'll get to see the new F12 TdF up close.
