One word can sum up the whole car, Ferrari. Ferrari have been making cars for a long time now and have become pretty good at it.

The Ferrari 355 F1 was made in 1997 and is the car that pops into your head when you first think of a Ferrari. The long, streamlined and red ferrari that they are renouned for.

The only thing not sporty about this car is its interiour that would normally be found in an old Jaguar. Light brown leather seats, but the only thing that lets you know that you are not in a Jag is when you look at the stearing wheel and see the staring back at you.

Now for the statistics and the fun stuff that makes all men quiver. The engine:-

The engine is a Longitudinal 90° V8 with a light alloy cylinder block and head and has a total displacement of 3,496cc. This pumps out 380bhp at 8,250rpm. This gives out a maximum torque of 363 Nm at 6,000 rpm .

The one thing that is very unique about this car is that it has a steering-wheel mounted F1-style paddle change transmition which is very uncomman.

Now the performance. The top speed is 295 km/h (183 mph) and can do 0-60 mph 4.6 secs. It can do a standing quarter mile in 12.9 secs and a standing mile in 31.8 secs.

Overall the car has the performance of a race car but the luxury of a limo.
