Since 1973, when the traditional front-engined 365 GTB/4 Daytona had been replaced by the Berlinatta Boxer, Ferrari's top-of-the-line 12-cylinder 2-seater model had used a mid-mounted 180° V12 flat engine. The Berlinetta Boxer had later been developed into the Testarossa, whose last evolution was the 1994 F512 M. Under the presidency of Luca Cordero di Montezemolo, [3] who took office in 1991, the F512 M replacement was developed as a traditional front-engined V12 grand tourer.
After a 30 months of development, the Ferrari 550 Maranello was presented in July 1996 at the Nürburgring racing circuit in Germany.[4] The model name referred to the 5.5-litres total engine displacement in decilitres and to the town of Maranello, home to the Ferrari headquarters and factory. Pininfarina executed both the exterior and interior design. Frame and main engine components were shared with the 2+2 Ferrari 456, although at 2, 500 mm (98.4 in) the 550's wheelbase was 100 mm or 3.9 inches shorter.
The engine is a naturally aspirated 65° V12 with 4 valves per cylinder, dual overhead cams and a variable length intake manifold. It displaced 5, 473.91 cc (334.0 cu in) and produced 485 PS (357 kW; 478 hp) at 7, 000 rpm and 568.1 N·m (419 lb·ft) at 5, 000 rpm. Bore and stroke measure 88 mm and 75 mm.
The 550 Maranello had a top speed of 320 km/h (199 mph), and could accelerate from a standstill to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.4 seconds.[3] Testing the 550 Maranello in 2000, American car magazine Motor Trend recorded a 0 to 60 miles per hour (0 to 97 km/h) acceleration time of 4.2 seconds, a 0 to 100 mph (0 to 161 km/h) time of 9.6 seconds, and a ¼ mile (0.4 km) performance of 12.5 seconds at 116.9 mph.
