Read the restThis 1995 Ferrari 348 Spider was delivered new to Miller Motorcars in Greenwich, Connecticut and spent much of its life in New York State until being acquired a year ago by the seller, who has since added approximately 1,000 of its 28k indicated miles. The car is finished in red over tan leather and powered by a 3.4-liter quad-cam V8 paired with a five-speed manual transaxle. Modifications include a Nouvalari exhaust system and a Pioneer CD player. The timing belt was last changed in 2018 along with the air conditioning compressor, clutch, engine mounts, water pump, tires, and more. This final-year 348 is offered with records to 1999, a clean Carfax report, factory literature and tools, a car cover, and a clean Maryland title in the seller’s name.
