For sale is an extremely rare and highly collectible 1999 Ferrari F355 Series Fiorano Special Edition, also known
as the "Serie Fiorano" This Ferrari, VIN # ZFFXR48A1X0115937, is number 21 out of just 100 355 Fioranos ever
produced. The current owner is a physician and this vehicle is from his personal collection.
With just 100 examples produced this is one of the rarest modern Ferraris of all time.
According to its prior owner of 10 years, this Ferrari won every event it entered. He states “It has been the top
V8, winning both the Otro Cilindri Cup (top v-8 in the country) at Cavallino Concourse d' Elegance as well as 1st
place-best in class the following year it has won the over all 1st place cup and best in show at the Ferrari's
owners club, Florida region it has won top modern Ferrari at the Winter Park Concourse d' Elegance.”
This Ferrari just had a major service completed December 29, 2014.
Ferrari produces around 6,000 cars a year. But with just 100 F355 Series Fiorano produced, this is super rare car
even by Ferrari standards. For example:
100—355 Fioranos
350-380—F50s
400-500—Enzos
1,311—F40
~2,000—430 Scuderia
~1,273—360 CS Challenge Stradale
500—430 16Ms
448—550 Barchetta
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.

Can the Dark Knight pull off Enzo Ferrari?

Sun, Aug 23 2015

Christian Bale is taking another role where he gets to be in close contact with cool cars. The former Batman has reportedly been cast as Enzo Ferrari in a biopic about the legendary automotive figure that's being directed by Michael Mann, according to Deadline Hollywood. Production is set to begin next summer. The film allegedly takes place in 1957 and is possibly related to the fatalities of 11 people that year in a Ferrari crash at the Mille Miglia. According to Road & Track, the story also might be based on the book Enzo Ferrari: The Man, The Cars, The Races, The Machine. Mann has been trying to get the tale of the sports car magnate made for years, and had previously been negotiating to direct a movie adapting the book Go Like Hell about Ford and Ferrari's epic rivalry at Le Mans in the '60s. Bale's casting seems like a challenge, though. The British actor certainly doesn't look much like Ferrari. Also, he's currently 41, whereas il Commendatore was 59 in 1957. Mann's film already has challenger, too. Robert de Niro is also developing a Ferrari biopic in Italy, and he's taking the starring role. That movie would reportedly tell the story of the sports car company from its founding through Enzo's death in 1988. Here's hoping both of them make it to theaters; the auto industry titan's life is plenty fascinating enough to support more than one big-screen tale. Related Video:

Lamborghini Countach, Ferrari 512M and more immortalized as Lego sets

Tue, Feb 1 2022

Lego has announced a slew of new Speed Champions sets, the ones based on actual licensed cars, for 2022. The latest batch includes a smorgasbord of supercars, from beloved classics like the Lamborghini Countach to yet-to-be-released promises like the long-awaited Mercedes-AMG One. There are seven cars in total, released in five sets.  Our favorite is probably the 262-piece Lamborghini Countach, based on a later LP500 variant. Not only does it tick the box of a childhood dream machine, but the angular shape of the real-life Countach lends itself well to being recreated in Lego bricks. Also, it's modeled in white rather than the typical red. Lego Speed Champions Ferrari 512M 1 View 6 Photos We also really dig the Ferrari 512M. It marked the last of Ferrari's V12 endurance racers, and even though it was soundly spanked by the Porsche 917, the cars are undeniably beautiful. The 291-piece Lego set does a great job of capturing its brutal wedge silhouette in brick form. Lego Speed Champions Lotus Evija 1 View 5 Photos Rounding out the single-car sets is the 247-piece Lotus Evija. The electric Lotus has a bit of a generic supercar look about it, but that's not entirely the fault of the Lego kit. Its dramatic vents can't really be replicated with the limited "resolution" of the Lego bricks. Its rear, with unique taillight-encircled air tunnels, is a bit more distinctive. Lego Speed Champions Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR & Vantage GT3 1 View 7 Photos In addition to the single car sets, there are two larger sets of two cars each. One is a 592-piece Aston Martin-themed pack that includes the Valkyrie AMR Pro and Vantage GT3. Again, it's a bit difficult to sculpt the cars' curvaceous lines out of straight-edged bricks, but the effort is admirable. The Valkyrie is probably the more successful of the two, as the Vantage would resemble a Corvette or Viper if it didn't have stickers to clarify the details. Lego Speed Champions Mercedes-AMG F1 W12 E Performance & Project One 01 View 9 Photos Last but not least is a twofer comprised of 564 bricks to build the Mercedes-AMG One and seven-time Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton's W12 racer. In Lego's official product description the driver is not mentioned by name, but the number 44 gives it away. The model of the One indeed looks like a sharp supercar, but the blocky pieces don't exactly replicate the lines we've seen on camouflaged test mules.

Touring displays Ferraris old and new at Villa d'Este

Mon, May 25 2015

Arguably more than any other, Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera has long been a mainstay of the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este, and this year the coachbuilder chose to highlight its long history by showcasing two Ferraris: the first one it ever did and the most recent. The latter is the Berlinetta Lusso which Touring showcased at this year's Geneva Motor Show. A more subtle and elegant take on the visually aggressive Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, the Berlinetta Lusso is rebodied in handcrafted aluminum and carbon fiber and will be offered in a strictly limited run of five examples. The former, however, dates back a lot long than this past March. It's the 1948 Ferrari 166 MM Barchetta, one of the earliest Ferraris and the first (discounting the Auto Avio Costruzioni 815) that Touring was called on to clothe. The 166 Mille Miglia was the first car which Enzo Ferrari made in any serious numbers, but this particular show car wasn't just any example: this one was owned by Fiat chairman Gianni Agnelli. It's a fitting display from the carrozzeria that won the Design Award with the Disco Volante just two years ago, displayed the Mini Superleggera concept last year and has been part of the Concorso since 1931. Sadly for the Milanese outfit, though, the Berlinetta Lusso didn't win the coveted prize this year: that went to the Bentley EXP 10 Speed Six, which also beat out the SCG 003C, Magna Mila Plus, Aston Martin DBX, Lamborghini Asterion and Zagato Mostro. Related Video: THE FIRST AND LATEST FERRARI DRESSED BY TOURING PARADE AT CONCORSO D'ELEGANZA VILLA D'ESTE 2015 - A rare opportunity to see on stage the acclaimed Touring Berlinetta Lusso and Gianni Agnelli's Ferrari 166MM Barchetta Touring. - Touring Berlinetta Lusso competes for the Concept Cars and Prototypes Design Award. - The magnificent Barchetta owned by l'Avvocato enters the "Gentlemen's racers" class after regaining its authentic shape at Touring Superleggera restoration atelier. Touring Superleggera is embedded in the Concorso since the early editions, having debuted in 1931. The hall of fame includes, among many, the prizes assigned to Isotta Fraschini 8ASS spider, Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 Gran Sport Spider as well as Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Spider Coupe, Pegaso Z102 Berlinetta "Thrill" and recently Alfa Romeo Disco Volante by Touring. Touring believes the Concorso is the ideal stage to showcase innovative prototypes, give rise to new stylistic trends, surprise and amaze the selected attendance".
