Overview
Amari Supercars are proud to present this 2001(51) Ferrari 550 Barchetta Pininfarina finished in Blu Sebring with a charcoal leather interior. This car is number 164 of the 448 examples produced and is especially rare as one of just 42 originally delivered to the UK. It is also the only Blu Sebring example currently available for sale in the UK.
This example features sports seats in a medium configuration and contrast stitching in Giallo. The cabin is further enhanced with Alcantara detailing across the dashboard and rear shelf, leather-upholstered rollover bars. Also carbon fibre instrument panels, a carbon fibre and leather steering wheel, and a carbon fibre gear lever, blending elegance with a purposeful, driver-focused feel.
The car comes complete with a full complement of factory equipment, including a tonneau cover, touring hood, original toolkit, Ferrari Certificate of Conformity, and the Michalak high-speed soft top. These elements, alongside its meticulous presentation, ensure the Barchetta is both complete and highly desirable to collectors.
An extensive history file accompanies the car, documenting careful maintenance from new. Timing belts were replaced in 2019, followed by an annual service in 2020, with the most recent comprehensive service which included belts was carried out in 2022 by renowned Ferrari specialists DK Engineering. This level of attention ensures the car is mechanically as sound as it is visually striking, which is particularly important for Ferrari’s front-engined V12s, where preventative maintenance is key to reliability and long-term value.

The Ferrari 550 Barchetta Pininfarina is one of the most distinctive and exclusive front-engined V12 Ferraris of the modern era. Built to celebrate Pininfarina’s 70th anniversary, it was conceived as a pure, open-top interpretation of the 550 Maranello. Unlike the coupe, the Barchetta was never intended to be a conventional convertible. Instead, it took inspiration from Ferrari’s historic roadsters, adopting the “barchetta” or “little boat” philosophy, emphasizing open-air motoring and raw, visceral connection to the road. Only 448 examples were produced worldwide, making it a highly sought-after collector’s piece from the moment of its unveiling at the Paris Motor Show in 2000.
