Chassis 54225 was delivered in February 1985 to German dealer Autoexpo Filderstadt before being sold new in 1988 to North American Ferrari racing pioneer Giuseppe Risi via his dealership Ferrari of Houston in Texas. In 1989, the car joined the collection of a New Mexico privateer racing driver who sold it in 1995 to a New Orleans collector, with whom it spent another six years. It was re-purchased in 2001 by Risi, who showcased the car at the 25th-anniversary 288 GTO gathering at the 2009 Concorso Italiano in Monterey, California, before commissioning a refurbishment by Ferrari in Maranello, Italy, that culminated in the completion of Ferrari Classiche certification in 2011. After spending two years with a Houston owner, the car was sold in 2015 to a Ferrari racing driver and Saudi royal family member who retained it in his Los Angeles collection for six years. It then resided in an Austin, Texas, collection between 2021 and 2025 before being purchased by the selling dealer in 2026. Featuring composite and Kevlar bodywork finished in Rosso Corsa, the car is powered by a mid-mounted 2,855cc quad-cam V8 that incorporates twin IHI turbochargers, air-to-air intercoolers, dry-sump lubrication, and Weber-Marelli fuel injection. Additional equipment includes a five-speed manual transaxle with a magnesium alloy case, power-assisted ventilated disc brakes with aluminum calipers, staggered-width 16” Speedline multipiece wheels, black leather upholstery over Daytona-style seats with Kevlar frames, air conditioning, and power windows. This Tipo F114 is now offered in North Salem, New York, with a Ferrari Classiche Red Book, a copy of the original sales invoice from Ferrari to Giuseppe Risi, invoices from the last decade, and a Florida title.
