The 1998 Ferrari F355: before you buy

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 1998 Ferrari F355 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Buying the 1998 Ferrari F355 is a big decision; here is the information we have.

A buyer's checks

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA has 2 owner complaints on file, mostly about fuel system. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

What the specs mean

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Who it is for

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.

Space and size

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway.

Drive it on your own roads

If the F355 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent the F355 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Rent the F355 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

Which one to look for

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Within the 1998 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

Running costs

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
