Maranello and the paddocks around the world tell a lot about Ferrari in 2005 — a year when road cars, race variants and customer track programs all overlapped. If you follow model lines or are researching a specific chassis, a short, organized list makes it easier to spot how each car fits into Ferrari’s lineup.
There are 10 2005 Ferrari Models, ranging from 360 Challenge (race) to FXX. The entries below are organized with the columns Years produced,Body style,Key specs (L, layout, hp, top speed km/h) so you can quickly compare production span, body type and core performance — you’ll find below.
What’s the difference between the 360 Challenge (race) and the FXX?
The 360 Challenge is a race-prepared version of the 360 Modena built for one-make and club racing, focusing on weight reduction, safety gear and handling; the FXX is a customer-track development program based on the Enzo, non-street-legal and designed for extreme performance and ongoing factory support rather than regular road use.
How should I use the Years produced, Body style and Key specs to compare models?
Use Years produced to understand generation and rarity, Body style to judge intended use (road coupe, spider, race car), and Key specs (displacement, layout, horsepower, top speed) to compare performance and character when choosing a model for ownership, restoration or collection.

Images and Descriptions
360 Modena
A compact mid‑engine V8 coupe that was still being built and sold in 2005 as Ferrari’s entry supercar before the F430. Loved for its balance and engine note, it’s a popular used‑market choice and the Modena name is iconic.
360 Spider
The open‑top version of the 360 sold through 2005, offering the same lively 3.6L V8 with roof‑down driving. In 2005 it was a direct rival to other exotic convertibles and remains prized for its usable everyday performance.
360 Challenge Stradale
A track‑focused, road‑legal lightweight of the 360 family offered in 2005, sharpened with more power, reduced weight and upgraded brakes. Buyers in 2005 sought it as a driver‑oriented alternative to standard 360s and limited numbers boost collectibility.
360 Challenge (race)
Ferrari’s factory race‑prepared 360 used in customer GT series and still campaigned in 2005. Not road legal, it was sold to private teams through Ferrari Corse Clienti and played a major role in GT racing development.
F430 Coupe
Introduced in late 2004 and sold widely as a 2005 model, the F430 replaced the 360 with a more powerful 4.3L V8 and modern electronics. In 2005 it was Ferrari’s headline two‑seater, praised for speed and drivability.
F430 Spider
The F430 Spider arrived in 2005, bringing the new 4.3L V8 to an open‑top audience. Sold globally that year, it combined convertible freedom with near‑supercar coupe performance and strong showroom demand on release.
575M Maranello
A front‑engine V12 GT coupe that was sold in 2005 as Ferrari’s grand tourer flagship at the time. Known for strong straight‑line performance and comfort, it bridged the gap between touring and true supercar manners.
575M Superamerica
Launched in 2005 as a limited, rotating‑roof variant of the 575M, the Superamerica was a rarer, high‑style GT sold to collectors. Its patented translucide rotating roof and low production make it a notable 2005 model year special.
612 Scaglietti
Ferrari’s four‑seat grand tourer sold in 2005, the 612 offered a roomy 2+2 layout with a long‑stroke V12. Favoured by buyers needing Ferrari performance with more practicality, it was a key part of the 2005 lineup.
FXX
A limited, track‑only development car introduced and delivered to select clients beginning in 2005, the FXX was built by Ferrari for exclusive track use and testing. Owners joined Ferrari’s program rather than driving it on public roads.
