The 1995 Ferrari F355 exhibits a significantly lower overall defect rate compared to the average car of the same year, with just 24 defects per 100 vehicles, as opposed to the average of 326. This model particularly excels in several categories, including brakes and steering, where it performs much better than average, showing a 94% reduction in defects for brakes and 92% for steering. Additionally, the F355 shows lower issues in visibility and lights, again markedly outperforming other vehicles of its age. Notably, while tyre wear is a common concern across many vehicles, the F355's standout performance in critical areas highlights its engineering strengths. However, it does show higher defect rates in the lower mileage segments, suggesting a unique pattern of wear as the vehicle ages.
