Manual (1994 to 1999)

The Ferrari F355 Manual represents the purest and most sought-after version of the F355, built between 1994 and 1999 and fitted with Ferrari’s iconic 6-speed gated manual transmission. Powered by the 3.5-litre naturally aspirated V8 producing up to 375 hp, the manual F355 delivers a raw, analogue driving experience defined by its razor-sharp throttle response, spine-tingling exhaust note, and mechanical engagement that later Ferraris moved away from. Of the roughly 11,300 F355s produced, manuals account for a minority, especially in later years as Ferrari pushed the F1 gearbox. In the Australian market, manual F355s sit firmly at the top of the value tree, prized by collectors for their long-term desirability, with originality, documented engine-out servicing, and factory spec having a major influence on market prices.
