Why it matters
The 335 S was a 1957 quad-cam Ferrari sports racer and the successor to the 315 S. A fatal crash involving Alfonso de Portago at the 1957 Mille Miglia was described by Sports Illustrated as probably the end of that race.

02Production & history
Production
Every figure says what it counts.
| What is counted | Figure | Basis | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total model production335 S sports-racers built (1957-1958) | 41 | Factory production | Independently researched |
Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.
History
For the 1957 Mille Miglia Ferrari also built a brand new 390 bhp 335 S for its works team. The Mille Miglia crash car was one of the 3.8-litre Ferraris in the race.
After the season the surviving machines were sold to the United States. One 335 S was delivered to Luigi Chinetti's North American Racing Team at the end of 1958.
