1996 Ferrari F355 GTS for Sale in Germany

This 1996 Ferrari F355 GTS for sale in Germany is the targa-roofed version of the model that restored Ferrari's reputation for building a mid-engine car that simply worked.

Finished in Silver, this used Ferrari F355 GTS has covered 56,188 km (34,913 miles) and has had two previous owners. It was first registered in December 1996. Its petrol engine produces 381 PS (279 kW) and is paired with a manual transmission. The removable roof panel stows behind the seats, so the car keeps the coupé's rear buttresses and its shape with the roof either in place or away.

The F355 is the model on which the modern mid-engine Ferrari was rebuilt, and the F1 gearbox on this car was the marque's first road-going paddle shift. Early F1 cars are collected for that: the first step towards how every Ferrari now shifts.

The name breaks with Ferrari's older formula: 355 means a 3.5-litre engine and five valves per cylinder, not eight cylinders. Ferrari built 2,577 GTS between 1995 and 1999, 2,048 of them with the manual gearbox, and the F355 was the last mid-engined Ferrari with the flying buttress rear window.

FAQ

This Ferrari F355 GTS in the European market

Is this Ferrari F355 GTS priced above or below the European market?

At €190,000, it sits below the median of €195,850 for the 3 Ferrari F355 GTS advertised in Europe in 2026. 0% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread.

Can this Ferrari F355 GTS be bought in Germany and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Kerpen, Germany. The dealer quotes it as: VAT not deductible. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How much did this Ferrari F355 GTS cost new?

The manufacturer's base list price was €119,000 in United States, excluding options. This car is advertised at €190,000, 60% above that figure. A list price is the launch price of the version without options, so a heavily specified car left the factory above it, and it says nothing about what the car is worth today.

How does the mileage of this Ferrari F355 GTS compare?

56,188 km recorded, against a median of 56,188 km across the Ferrari F355 GTS advertised in Europe in 2026. It sits on the median. Service history and previous owners are not published on LUSSO and should be confirmed with the selling dealer.

a 1996 car in Italy at €195,850, and a 1998 car in Germany at €250,000. Observed in 2026. Comparing them means putting model year, mileage, factory options and the VAT basis side by side before the price itself.

LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Ferrari F355 GTS be inspected before purchase?
