If you go to italiaspeed.com it says that the next Ferrari will be the 420 based on the Maseratti engine. But I agree with Steve, I don't like the next Ferrari being in the 4xx "class". Does anybody know where intaliaspeed.com has gotten their info? |

maybe if they decide to take the name from the unitary displacement, they will call it the 525. how weird does that sound?!! |

Trying to predict what Ferrari will name a new model is a bit like herding cats, but I just have a mental problem with any "4XX" nomenclature for the "next 360" -- too much like the 456, 412, 400 family. |

I highly doubt it will be called the 370, unless ferrari is planning on destroking the 4.2L engine in the maserati into 3.7L. Its almost definately going to be called the 420. |

No, I don't know anything that you don't know. Just personal opinion. |

Also, what basis do you have for your opinion of the next ferrari. My basis for the 370 is srictly perosnal opinion. It just seems logical to me from the 308 to the 328 to the 348 to the 355 and now 360. |

Thanks. I have been reading this message board for a few months now and have been really impressed with the friendliness here. I also am a member of roadfly.org, but this board blows them out of the water. Anyway, thanks again for the welcome. I am thinking the next Ferrari will be a 370. |
