1 Previous Owner, 2004 Ferrari 575M Maranello, 2004, F1 paddleshift gearbox, Lefthand drive, FHP, Fiorano handling Pack, The Maranello needs no excuses: it is rightminded, a return to traditional values, albeit values and standards that tower high above those set by the Daytona when it shuffled off to extinction a quarter of a century ago. Car magazine. The Ferrari 575M (Modificata) represented an evolution of the acclaimed 550 Maranello rather than an entirely new model. With the introduction of the 550 Maranello in 1997, Ferrari had returned to its tradition of building frontengined V12 sports cars, resurrecting a line that had remained dormant since the demise of the 365GTB/4 Daytona in 1974. The heart of any Ferrari is its engine, and the 550 Maranellos 48valve, 5.5litre V12 developed 485bhp at 7,000rpm, some 100orso horsepower more than the Daytonas. Styled by Pininfarina like its illustrious Daytona predecessor, the 550 Maranello was similarly proportioned, adopting the classical combination of long bonnet, small cabin and truncated tail. The bodys aerodynamics were developed in the wind tunnel, where hours of testing ensured that the minimum of drag was combined with constant downforce regardless of set up, an important consideration in a 200mph road car. Styling details such as the bonnet air scoop and hot air outlets behind the front wheelarches recalled the great competizione Ferraris of the past, in particular the immortal 250GTO, while the tail incorporated Ferraris characteristic twin circular lights. For the 575M, engine displacement grew to 5,748cc and maximum power to 515bhp, while transmitting it to the ground was a new sixspeed paddle shift semiautomatic gearbox, a technology that Ferrari had developed in Formula 1. This 575M Maranello was supplied new in Switzerland via Ferrari main agents, Garage Zenith SA and was sold to the current owner by Ferrari Katowice in Poland. Offered with full service history, and certified accident free, the car has been maintained by Ferrari dealers in Switzerland and Poland, and in the UK by Graypaul, Nottingham.
