The Ferrari F355 was built from May 1994 to 1999. It is an evolution of the Ferrari 348 and was replaced by the Ferrari 360. It is a mid engined rear wheel drive v8 powered 2-seat targa. One major difference between the V8 in the 348 and that in the F355, apart from the displacement increase from 3.4 to 3.5 L, is that the F355 features a 5 valve per-cylinder head that is considerably more powerful, producing 380 PS (279 kW; 375 hp).
Our verdict:
Considering its basis is the unresolved and wayward 348tb, the Ferrari F355 is a revelation. Not only is it approachable in a way that's new to Ferrrari for this car, it also has the speed and handlling to outpoint many full-blown supercars. Organise your Ferrari 355 hire through Sports Car Hire.
The Ferrari 360 was all-new in 1999 and in 2003 Spider convertible body styles were introduced. They were powered by a mid-mounted 3.6-liter V8 that pumped out a raucous 400 horsepower at 8,500 rpm. The all-important 0-60-mph sprint was accomplished in a few ticks north of 4 seconds. This Ferrari set the bar for other "lower-end" supercars by providing blistering performance, ethereal steering, superior ride and tenacious grip. It doesn't look half bad either, and who can argue with a car that proudly presents its engine under a glass hood?

The Ferrari Enzo supercar first appeared in 2003. It was named after Ferrari’s founder and is the successor to the Ferrari F50. It is powered by a 6.0 litre V12 engine with a maximum power output of 650bhp, enabling it to reach a top speed of 362km/h.
Our Verdict:
Enzo. A name that makes your heart beat a little faster. A name that at first seemed clumsy when applied to a car and not the man, but now seems completely appropriate. A name given to the fastest Ferrari of all and the hottest supercar on the planet. A supercar that proves, if any proof was needed, that the pull of a new Ferrari flagship can still rival that of gravity itself. Organise your Ferrari Enzo Hire through Sports Car Hire.

Frankfurt, September 13th 2011 – Ferrari’s exclusive new 8-cylinder, the 458 Spider has finally been unveiled to the public at the 64th Frankfurt International Motor Show.
The latest addition to the Ferrari range is a mid-rear-engined two-seater featuring a fully retractable aluminium hard-top, a world first for a sports car with this layout.
The 458 Spider’s innovative new hard-top is not only 25 kg lighter than a traditional folding soft-top, but is also quieter and thermally more efficient when raised. Aside from taking just 14 seconds to open or close, the hard-top was engineered to occupy a very small space when stored so that the designers were able to include a generous rear bench for luggage behind the two seats.
