1992 Ferrari 348 TS

Ferrari 348 TS for sale
The Ferrari 348 ts was produced between 1989 and 1995 and has become one of the most iconic Ferraris of the early nineties. Powered by a mid-mounted 3.4 liter V8 with around 300 horsepower, the 348 ts delivers a raw and engaging driving experience. The ts stands for Targa Spider, meaning this version comes with a removable roof panel that gives you the best of both worlds: the coupe profile with the option of open-air driving. With styling influenced by the Testarossa but in a more compact and balanced package, the Ferrari 348 ts has earned a loyal following among enthusiasts and collectors.

Exterior: The exterior of this Ferrari 348 ts is in my opinion absolutely stunning. Pininfarina managed to create a design that captures the best of early nineties Ferrari styling, taking inspiration from the Testarossa but with proportions that work even better. This example is finished in classic Rosso Corsa and being a ts it comes with the removable targa roof. The paintwork is in excellent condition with only a few stone chips on the front to mention. The car has been subtly enhanced with quality spacers that not only improve the stance but also sharpen the handling. The glass is all original Ferrari Sigla and shows none of the delamination issues that often affect these cars. The targa roof is in great condition and the car sits on a good set of Dunlop tires. Underneath, the car presents just as well as it does on top.

Interior: The interior of this Ferrari 348 ts is also in pristine condition. Over the years many 348 interiors have developed quality issues but on this car they have all been properly addressed. The well known sticky button problem extended beyond just the switches and also affected parts like the door handles, air vents, steering column, targa roof levers and center console. On this car, every one of those parts has been removed and refinished. The common rust problem on the door sills has also been taken care of with brand new replacements, which was a costly job but ensures the car is in top condition. The leather is soft and supple with no visible wear, not even on the driver’s bolster which is usually the first place to show use. The carpets are fresh and everything works exactly as it should.

Engine and Mechanics: The Ferrari 348 ts is powered by a 3.4 liter 32 valve V8 producing around 300 horsepower, paired with Ferrari’s famous gated five speed manual with a dog leg first gear. Driving this car feels very special as it has a wonderfully analog character. The steering is razor sharp, the gearbox requires precision and decisiveness, and the chassis corners flat while giving great confidence. The brakes are strong and reassuring, adding to the feeling of control. This particular car has been exceptionally well maintained and was just serviced by a Ferrari specialist where it received a major service including a timing belt change. It has also recently had a brake service with new brake lines, meaning it is fully prepared for its next owner.

History and Documentation: This Ferrari 348 ts was delivered new in 1992 to its first owner Peter in Hamburg, Germany. He kept the car until 2001 when it was purchased by two Swedish gentlemen who decided to enjoy the car together. They made the ownership experience special by turning service visits into small road trips, driving the six hours to their preferred Ferrari specialist and treating it as a holiday. They cherished the car for almost 25 years before deciding to part with it in 2025, as both had reached their seventies and felt it was time to let it go to a new enthusiast. The car comes complete with its original accessories including the tool kit, tire repair kit, three original keys and all original books including the well stamped service book. In addition, it is accompanied by a binder filled with invoices documenting its service history along with paperwork from its time in Germany.
