This car when new was described in the motoring press as a “South Beach dance club with a steering wheel.” Such is the excitement generated by this fuel-injected 4.3-liter, 483-hp DOHC V-8 powered beast. To drive it, you should be prepared to live large. The F1 designation is related to the Formula One-style six-speed auto-clutch manual paddle-shifter that enhances an already incredible driving experience, along with a steering wheel rotary control switch that governs the electronic differential settings.

This Ferrari is like new with 12,000 pampered miles. It is handsomely finished in vibrant Giallo Modena with black leather complementary stitched in yellow throughout. The car is fit with Daytona seats that are power-operated and it has carbon fiber trim elements that are seen on the upper and lower dash, plus the radio surround and center console. Leather is utilized on the rear shelf and door panels, again with the visually inspiring yellow stitching. The Hi-Fi sound system features a factory subwoofer and CD changer. The tachometer is distinctive with a yellow face, while the balance of the instrumentation features black gauges.

Scuderia Ferrari crests are found on the front fenders. Additionally the four-wheel ventilated disc brakes have black calipers and the wheels are ball polished 19-inch factory options. The cockpit has a factory windstop and a clear 3M bra covers the hood, front bumpers and fenders. With many performance and luxury appointments, this machine is as close to “as new” as one could expect. It is an exquisite piece.
