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.

2022 Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance Mega Gallery | The show in pictures

Mon, May 23 2022

COMO, Italy — Held annually, the Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance is, in many ways, Europe's version of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. It takes place in a beautiful location, and it brings together an impressive selection of rare and valuable cars. It's a real treat for the eyes, the ears, and, if you're into champagne, the palate. The 2022 edition of the show was no exception: About 50 cars were shipped to Lake Como from over a dozen countries, and it wasn't just the usual suspects. Sure, there were a lot of pre-war cars (including a couple of one-off models), but some of the icons that younger enthusiasts grew up with (like the Lamborghini Countach) were present as well. This year's event was split into eight categories: The Art Deco Era of Motor Car Design, The Supercharged Mercedes-Benz, How Grand Entrances Were Once Made, Eight Decades of Ferrari Represented in Eight Icons, "Win on Sunday, Sell on Monday," BMW's M Cars and Their Ancestors, Pioneers That Chased the Magic 300 KPH, And a design award for concept and prototypes. The jury gave the coveted "best of show" award to a 1937 Bugatti 57 S owned by Andrew Picker of Monaco, while the aforementioned classes were won by, respectively: The Bugatti 57 S, shown below, A 1936 Mercedes-Benz 540K Cabriolet, A 1956 Chrysler Boano Coupe Speciale, A 1966 Ferrari 356 P Berlinetta Speciale Tre Posti, A 1961 Porsche 356 B Carrera Abarth GTL, A 1972 BMW 3.0 CSL, A 1989 Porsche 959 Sport, And the Bugatti Bolide concept unveiled in 2020. Winning at Villa d'Este is a big deal: The cars are judged by a panel of highly experienced judges. No one gave me a scoring sheet, presumably out of fear that I'd award points to the late-model Fiat 600 lurking in the parking lot, but several cars that didn't win an award caught my eye. One is a 1934 Bugatti Type 59 Sports, a grand-prix racer that was once owned by King Leopold III of Belgium and that has never been restored Β— its patina is inimitable. Another is a 1961 BMW 700 RS. One of two built (the other is in the BMW collection), it's a tiny, ultra-light roadster related to the 700 and powered by a 697-cubic-centimeter air-cooled flat-twin tuned to develop 70 horsepower. It won several hill-climb events during the 1960s, and it's one of the rarest cars ever to wear a BMW roundel. Aston Martin's freshly-restored 1979 Bulldog concept was cool to see as well; check out the cassette player integrated into the headliner!

Ferrari cuts Toronto lawyer a deal to replace his flooded California [w/video]

Thu, 05 Sep 2013

A Ferrari might be the last vehicle you'd want to be driving when streets are submerged in water, but Toronto lawyer Howard Levitt was unfortunate enough to be behind the wheel of his $200,000+ Ferrari California when the tunnel he was driving through started to fill up. It was July, when parts of the Canadian city were flooded, but he was determined to make his flight to a court appearance the next day. So Levitt abandoned his metallic blue supercar in the middle of the street and took a cab to the airport, the National Post reports.
The car subsequently was totaled, and the insurance company covered the damage, so after completing his court assignment (and a column for the Financial Post that was due the same day), Levitt began to search for a replacement for his California - driving his 1994 Dodge Viper in the meantime. He decided on a 2014 California in the same metallic blue to replace his 2010 model. When he approached Ferrari to put in an order, the Italian marque was waiting for him, having heard of his mishap. The company offered him a "very generous" deal on a 2014 model; an undisclosed amount less than the after-options retail price of around $300,000.
The new Ferrari is expected to be delivered to Levitt in November, and we can only hope another flood doesn't catch him off guard. We're not so sure Ferrari would offer him another "very generous" deal. Feel free to watch the short video below, despite its rather static nature, which we included to precisely show the sad fate of Levitt's fallen California.

Steve McQueen's Ferrari 275 GTB/4 to be auctioned in Monterey

Sat, 10 May 2014

We know from many, many years of watching classic car auctions, that there are certain qualities that ensure big money. For example, putting tiny silver horses and/or yellow badges on a red car will probably bring in a lot of cash. This is doubly true if said car hails from the 1950s or 1960s, and it's triply true if some dude drove it around in circles or if a celebrity owned it. That, friends, is how you make the serious dosh at auction.
Considering that, we should expect big, big things when this 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 crosses the block at the big RM Auctions event during the festivities surrounding the 2014 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
Terrence Steven McQueen, better known as Steve McQueen and even better known as the coolest actor of the 1960s and 1970s, originally purchased this car while filming Bullitt in San Francisco, which should provide a big boost to its sale price.
