Now's Your Chance To Buy This Glorious Ferrari 550 Barchetta

Just 448 of the Pininfarina-designed 550 Barchettas left the factory in Maranello, and now's your chance to own one of them
Now's Your Chance To Buy This Glorious Ferrari 550 Barchetta

Check out this stunning manual Ferrari 550 Barchetta Pininfarina that’s coming up for sale. Described as ‘one of the best in the world’, you’ll find just 1625 miles on the clock of this left-hooker after a quiet life as a garage queen.

Designed not to have a roof, the achingly cool Barchetta’s flimsy canvas top can only be used at up to 70mph. But you won’t want to use it anyway, because you’ll want no barriers between your ears and the 478bhp 5.5-litre F133 V12, which is hooked up to the six-speed manual gearbox (huzzah!).

The car, now one of the rarest open-top Ferraris of the last 20 years, was first introduced to the world as a special edition at the Paris motor show in 2000. It marked the final stages of 550 production ahead of the 575’s arrival in 2002.

Painted in spectacular Giallo Fly yellow paint, with a Nero leather interior punctuated by yellow seat trim inserts, this beautiful example from 2001 will set you back a cool £395,000.

If that’s too rich for you, the sellers Hexagon also have a 2005 Superamerica like the one we found last month. That can be yours for just £379,995…

Don’t care. Front engine v12, 6 speed manual, rwd, top down. Literally everything I want in a car and I’d be willing to suck up gross seats for the glorious car

I think I understand why they are rare… nobody wanted such an ugly car when you could get good looking Ferraris that didn’t look like Japanese high production cars..

I would rather spend half the amount on a new Ferrari … faster and better looking.
