1997 Ferrari 550 Maranello

This 1997 Ferrari 550 Maranello was originally commissioned by legendary Italian racing driver, Formula One competitor, and renowned Ferrari development driver Andrea de Adamich. As one of Ferrari’s most respected test and racing drivers, de Adamich played an important role in the development of many of Ferrari’s road and competition cars, making this example especially significant.

Powered by a naturally aspirated 5.5-liter V12 paired with Ferrari’s iconic six-speed gated manual transmission, the 550 Maranello marked Ferrari’s celebrated return to the classic front-engine V12 grand touring formula. Its timeless Pininfarina design, exceptional balance, and analog driving experience have made it one of the marque’s most admired modern classics.

Before being delivered to its current owner, this Ferrari underwent a meticulous two-year restoration in Maranello, Italy, returning the car to an exceptional standard while preserving its remarkable provenance. Today, it represents not only one of Ferrari’s greatest grand touring cars, but also a unique piece of Ferrari history through its connection to Andrea de Adamich.
