How Could You Not Fall In Love With This Ferrari 16M Scuderia Spider?

Ferrari only ever built 499 examples of the 16M Scuderia Spider to celebrate its 16 Formula 1 championships

Ferrari's track-focused and limited-edition variants of its mid-engined V8 supercars have always been special and among the most remarkable is the 16M Scuderia Spider, based around the 430 Scuderia.

The Italian marque introduced the model to celebrate its 16 Formula 1 Constructors’ Championships and ended up building just 499 examples. This particular example has been listed up for auction through Bring a Trailer and has only ever been driven ~3,000 miles (~4,800 km), meaning it is in excellent condition.

Like most other 16M Scuderia Spiders, this one is painted in Rosso Corsa and sits on 19-inch alloy wheels with a gray finish and wrapped in 235/35 front and 285/35 rear Pirelli P Zero Corsa tires. It also features a Tricolore hood strip and has carbon fiber across parts of the front fascia, the rear grille surround, and the aggressive rear diffuser.

As for the cabin, it features carbon fiber-framed seats clad in black leather upholstery with red accent stitching and textured cloth inserts. It also features diamond-plate aluminum floors, automatic climate control, drilled aluminum pedals, a K40 radar detector, power windows, a factory stereo with an iPod Touch, and JBL speakers. We’ve always found Ferrari's decision to install an iPod Touch rather than its own infotainment display in the 16M quite amusing but let's be honest, you’ll be listening to the 4.3-liter naturally-aspirated V8 most of the time, not the latest Taylor Swift album.

The listing notes that the car was sold new by Scottsdale Ferrari in Arizona with an MSRP of $322,724. The car features an accident-free Carfax report, a Montana title, a tool kit, a battery maintainer, a car cover, an emergency air compressor, two keys, and a Ferrari-branded iPod case.
