This 348ss (#95 of 100) was purchased new at Ferrari of Houston on 6/25/1993.  I rescued the car from storage 15+ years ago after the original owner was incarcerated.  I now live at the beach fulltime and unfortunately she has returned to storage.  I am selling because I have no place here at my new home to keep her.  The 30k service was done at Ferrari of Atlanta approx. 7 years ago and the car has been driven VERY LITTLE since.  The clear coat on the paint was a little cloudy so I had it professionally repainted at Foreign Car in Birmingham about 5 years ago.  It was cosmetic paint only.  The interior door panels & headliner have been professionally reupholstered.  All interior instrument plastic trim panels got sticky (typical) and all have been replaced.  A New set of tires installed 12/2011 have less than 100 miles on them.  I have all factory manuals, the leather tool kit & all original documentation. This car has extremely low miles and can be a great toy for somebody.  It's not a perfect car but she's in GREAT SHAPE for a 20+ years old exotic Italian Sports Car.  She's A real survivor.  CASH SALE ONLY.  Being Sold AS IS with no warranty. This Car is for sale locally & I do reserve the right to end this auction at anytime for any reason. Call me with any questions 205-821-5212 David.  Ask any questions you have before you bid. The Buyer is responsible for his own shipping and any inspection must be completed prior to the end of this auction.  I have clear title in hand to the car and the vehicle or title will not be released until all funds have cleared/exchanged hands.  Vehicle is located in Birmingham, Alabama.  I do not need any assistance in selling the car.

 

Speciale's are x of 100 built.
"The car was limited to 100 examples (12 '92 models, and 88 '93 models) and was only sold in North America. The differences between the Serie Speciale and earlier 348s were as follows:
The front spoiler was redesigned for aerodynamics, now having a little reverse curve ahead of the front wheels, as well as a lip along the front edge that could be replaced after the inevitable ground scrapes became unsightly.
This spoiler was now body-colored, as was the rear skirt, rocker panels and front portion of the engine cover (all were matte black on older models). This is sometimes referred to "Speciale paint" in ads for older cars that have been repainted in this scheme.
The front grill was redesigned, and a chrome prancing horse was added where there was no horse on the front of earlier cars (a front license plate holder had occupied this space). The black horse on the rear grill of earlier models was changed to chrome, and, for what is probably the most distinguishing external feature of the 348 SS, the Testarossa-like slats covering the taillight assemblies were removed.
In the interior, the standard Frau seats were replaced with leather-covered Kevlar sports seats (although some customers specified the standard seats). The door panels were also redesigned and now in leather. The color of the leather on the doors and seats was coordinated with the carpet and roof liner. On the center console radio cover, the script that said "348 tb" (or ts) on the older cars was replaced by a small plate that read "Speciale tb" or "Speciale ts." There was also a special ID plate on the passenger door-post that listed the number in the series (i.e. No. 019 of 100) along with the engine and chassis s/n and the ts or tb designation.
The rear track was widened by 50mm from 1578mm to 1628mm by adding 25mm of offset to each wheel, and the final drive was shortened from 26/27 on the earlier cars to 25/29 on the SS. A taller fifth gear was fitted (early cars having p/n 70000592), to maintain top speed with the new lower main gear installed.
The SS had a new free-flow exhaust system credited with the car's quoted increase to 312 bhp (sometimes quoted as 320) from 300 bhp in the '89-'92 models. This is often called the "Spider exhaust" but it actually made its first appearance on the Speciale."
