We are pleased to offer 1996 Ferrari 333 SP Evoluzione s/n 015, an essentially new Ferrari 333 SP, finished in un–blemished Ferrari red. This 333 SP was the Geneva show car in March 1996 and the Turin show car in April 1996. This stunning car has been carefully maintained, and after a decade of museum storage has recently been race–prepped to full factory specifications, track tested and is ready to go. Ferrari 333 SP s/n 015 offers a unique chance for the collector or driver to own a virtually new, track prepped and race ready state–of–the–art Ferrari Sports Prototype race car. Has the very desirable later American Le Mans series specification 6–speed Xtrac gearbox plus the bigger 18″ wheels, larger brakes and improved aerodynamics.
Test run at the August 2008 Monterey Pre–Historic races. With 650 horsepower at 11,500 RPM in an under–2000 lb rocket, the shriek of the V–12 at full song alone is worth the price of admission. Has a spare set of 18″ wheels and tires. No accidents. Never been off the tarmac! Well maintained purpose built sport race car. The 333 SP will be the featured Ferrari at the 2009 Ferrari National Meet, to be held at Road America and Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin.
