This stunning Ferrari 355 Spider has been a part of the Team CJ Collection for the past two years. Finished in Rosso Corsa with tan interior and a black top, the car is equipped with the ultra-desirable 6 speed manual transmission.
Before moving to Texas in January 2021, the car had spent its entire life in Southern California where it had been thoroughly serviced by Ferrari of Long Beach, then later by Gran Touring Classics. Since July 2021, the car has been in our care in the Team CJ Works where it has been serviced extensively, including a full engine-out belt service in August 2023 (less than 200 miles ago). Mechanically, our F355 Spider is flawless and needs nothing. It is difficult to imagine you could ever find a better driving example!
During our ownership we have tastefully modified the spider, as follows: the electric convertible top worked, but required some assistance at the midway point. We removed the motor and converted the top to manual, meaning it can now be raised or lowered in a matter of seconds. We have retained all removed components, should some future owner wish to revert to a power top. We installed a competition style Momo steering wheel with alcantara rim in place of the original air bag wheel. Again, the original wheel is included in the sale. Finally the car is equipped with headers and a Tubi exhaust system. We do not have the original exhaust components.
The original Rosso Corsa paint is in excellent condition overall. There are a few barely noticeable stone chips at the front of the car that have been touched in, and there is a small area on the top of the right front wing where the paint has worn thin, probably due to an over enthusiastic detailer. Again, this flaw is barely noticeable and does nothing to detract from the overall excellent cosmetic condition of the paintwork. The interior is in exemplary condition throughout. The dash had been re-trimmed prior to our ownership, so there is none of the usual shrinkage evident. None of the switches are sticky, and the hide seats and door panels are in excellent condition. The sale includes a full set of factory tools, tire repair kit, all factory books, and an extensive file of service records.
