This Ferrari 550 Barchetta is a highly collectible limited-edition grand tourer, specified with the Fiorano handling pack, and number 178 of the 448 examples produced. ⁠ ⁠ It is powered by a naturally aspirated 5.5-litre V12, delivering 478bhp and 420lb-ft of torque to the rear wheels through an open-gate six-speed manual gearbox. ⁠ ⁠ This left-hand-drive 550 Barchetta was originally delivered to Japan before later being imported into the UK, though it is not currently registered.⁠ ⁠ The 550 Barchetta was released to celebrate Pininfarina’s 70th anniversary and, as a true ‘barchetta’, features a more raked windscreen, roll-over hoops behind the rear seats, and a removable soft top. ⁠ ⁠ Unveiled at the Paris Show in 2000, the model was limited to just 448 numbered cars, with the last leaving the factory in December 2001.⁠ ⁠ This example is finished in Rosso Corsa with ‘Scuderia Ferrari’ wing shields over a Nero leather-trimmed cabin complete with carbon-fibre inlays on the steering wheel and gear knob. ⁠ ⁠ 📍LIVE NOW - Poole, Dorset, United Kingdom⁠ ⁠ 🔗Find out more via our link in bio ⁠ ⁠ #CollectingCars #Ferrari #550Barchetta
