Ferrari 16M Scuderia Spider Reminds Us Of The Joys Of Naturally-Aspirated V8s

The Ferrari F8 Tributo is monstrously fast but if we were in the market for a mid-engined V8 Ferrari, it’s not the car we’d choose. Instead, we’d much rather own this limited-edition 2009 Ferrari 16M Scuderia Spider.

Ferrari introduced the car to commemorate its 16th Formula One constructors’ championship and limited production to just 499 examples worldwide. This example was first delivered to Boardwalk Ferrari in Plano, Texas, and was acquired by the seller in February 2020. It is being sold with a Ferrari Classiche Red Book, a battery charger, tools, literature, a car cover, service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Florida title.

Adorning the exterior of the car is a shade of Nero black with a Livrea Tricolore racing stripe. The 16M Scuderia Spider also features a black convertible top, carbon fiber rear diffuser, Scuderia Ferrari fender shields, 16M Scuderia badging, and carbon side skirts. A set of gunmetal-finished 19-inch five-spoke wheels with carbon fiber center caps and wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires stick the car to the pavement.

The interior sports black Alcantara with white stitching on the seats, dashboard, transmission tunnel, roll hoops, and carbon fiber door panels. There are also drilled aluminum pedals, air conditioning, a JBL audio system, and an infotainment system using an iPod Touch (a rather odd feature when you think about it).

Found at the heart of the supercar is a high-revving 4.3-liter V8 with 503 HP and 347 lb-ft (470 Nm). The Bring A Trailer listing confirms a service was performed in January 2020 and included an oil change, coolant flush, and involved the serpentine belt being replaced. The car has just 3,600 miles on the clock.
