The F355's cockpit was designed for maximizing driving pleasure. In the usual Ferrari tradition, the perfect driving position was obtained with an electric fully-adjustable driver's seat and height-adjustable steering wheel. The comfort was insured by sports-seats covered in Connolly leather. Also, the lever for the manual gear-box was positioned on the console for optimum handling. The car's seats are upholstered with hides from Connolly Leather, and are fitted asymmetrically in the car; this results in the driver being slightly closer to the car's center line than the passenger. Design emphasis for the F355 was placed on significantly improved performance, as well as drivability across a wider range of speeds and in different environments, such as low-speed city traffic.

The F355 employs a 3.5-liter, 5-valve-per-cylinder V-8 motor that gave it 380 hp and one of the best Formula-one style shrieks Ferrari ever produced in a street car. A new 5-valve cylinder head design resulted in an engine that was considerably more powerful, producing 375 hp. Engine internals are produced using lightweight materials; the connecting rods are forged in Ti6-Al-4V titanium alloy. The engine's compression ratio is 11:1 and employs the Bosch Motronic engine control unit. The Motronic system controls the electronic fuel injection and ignition systems, with a single spark plug per cylinder. Engine lubrication is via a dry-sump oiling system. The frame is a steel monocoque with tubular steel rear sub-frame with front and rear suspensions using independent, unequal-length wishbones, coil springs over gas-filled telescopic shock absorbers with electronic control servos and anti-roll bars. The car allows selection between two damper settings, "Comfort" and "Sport".

The F355 was styled by the famous Pininfarina studio, a Ferrari traditional partner. The car inherited all the characteristics of the predecessors and blended them in a subtle balance of aerodynamics and aesthetics. The 355 has proved a fantastic investment with prices increasing steadily for original, low mileage and fully Ferrari serviced cars, and this is perhaps one of the most desirable body styles. With performance figures that are enviable even a decade after the cars launch and an immortal design, the F355 is considered by many to be the most beautiful modern Ferrari.
