Ferrari - 355 (1996)
Ferrari 355 – a timeless icon from the 1990s that still turns heads on the road. Born out of Ferrari’s “tre ve” family of V8 sports cars, the 355 arrived in 1996 as a refined evolution of the 348, bringing a new level of performance and luxury. Whether you’re wondering about the Ferrari 355 price, the Ferrari 355 1996 price, the cost of a used Ferrari 355, or simply curious about how it holds up in the market, this overview walks you through the key facts and realistic valuation insights you need to know about this influential model.
Key specifications – Ferrari 355 spec list
- Engine: 3.5‑litre, 90° V8 naturally aspirated
- Horsepower: 240 hp (175 kW) – a modest but consistent outburst
- Torque: 225 lb‑ft (305 N·m) at 5,000 rpm
- Transmission: 5‑speed manual or 6‑speed Tiptronic automatic (optional) gearboxes
- Drive: Rear-wheel drive only – preserving the classic rear‑engined driving feel
- Fuel type: Premium unleaded gasoline, 0.81 ppg (4.1 l/100 km)
- Dimensions: 4,650 mm (LR); 1,370 mm (WY); 1,103 mm (HT)
- Weight: Approx. 1,320 kg (including driver and a small amount of fuel)
- Top speed: 225 km/h (140 mph) (manual) or 266 km/h (165 mph) (Tiptronic)
- 0‑100 km/h clock: 5.8 sec (manual); 5.4 sec (Tiptronic)
These numbers represent the baseline of the first generation 355 – a car that was engineered for tight corners as much as for straight‑line sprinting. With the updated version introduced in 1999, a new V6 engine replaced the V8, creating the Ferrari 355 V6, but the V8 variant remains the most celebrated and widely discussed in market research.
Depreciation insights – how the Ferrari 355 holds its value
When you ask what is a 1996 Ferrari 355 worth, a realistic start is to consider the depreciation curve typical of high‑performance luxury vehicles. Ferrari 355 depreciation follows a pattern similar to other flagship sports cars:
- Initial depreciation: 15‑20% within the first year of purchase.
- Second‑year value drop: roughly 10‑12% of its reduced value.
- Subsequent year decline slows to 5‑8% annually, provided maintenance is up to date and mileage stays low.
The 355 is built to endure, but like any mechanic–heavy machine, its mileage, service history, and finish condition all influence its depreciation rate. A car that kept its original mileage (under 25,000 km) and stayed under a professional workshop’s care will likely depreciate less than one that has been driven hard or neglected.
Comparison context – how does the 355 stack up?
When you’re trying to gauge a used Ferrari 355 price, the best practice is to compare it to contemporaries and
