Description

The Ferrari 550 Maranello represents one of the most important and respected turning points in Ferrari’s modern history. After years of mid‑engined V12 flagships, Ferrari returned to its roots in 1996 with a front‑engined V12, manual gearbox and classic Gran Turismo proportions – creating what is now widely regarded as one of the finest modern Ferraris.
Presented here is a beautifully specified example finished in the elegant and understated Grigio Titanio, a color that perfectly highlights the car’s long, sculpted lines. With 121,200 km and consistent, documented maintenance, this 550 Maranello stands as an honest, well‑cared‑for example of a true Ferrari icon.The 550 Maranello was conceived as a modern interpretation of legendary Ferrari V12 GT models such as the 365 GTB/4 Daytona – and succeeded brilliantly. Penned by Pininfarina, its design is timeless and balanced, combining muscular presence with elegance and restraint.Beneath the long hood sits the 5.5‑liter naturally aspirated V12, producing 485 hp, paired with a 6‑speed manual transaxle gearbox. This configuration delivers near‑perfect weight distribution and a driving experience that blends composure, speed and refinement in a way few modern Ferraris can match. The 550 is not only fast, but immensely capable and comfortable on long journeys – a true Gran Turismo in the purest sense.Manual GearboxThe Ferrari 550 Maranello was produced exclusively with a manual gated gearbox, making it one of the last Ferrari V12 models to offer a purely mechanical and driver‑focused experience. The open metal shift gate, precise linkage and tactile engagement are central to the car’s character and a major reason why the 550 is so highly regarded by purists today.Exterior Finish – Grigio Titanio Finished in Grigio Titanio, this 550 Maranello offers a refined and sophisticated presence. The color enhances the car’s sculptural surfaces and appeals particularly to collectors who appreciate subtlety and timeless elegance over overt display.Condition, Mileage and DocumentationWith 121,200 km, this example has been driven and enjoyed as Ferrari intended, while benefiting from proper care and maintenance.
