DES, I've only had it for a short while so I'm still in learning mode but it is quite intoxicating to approach the highway on ramp at 20km/h and then let loose full bore pulling the paddle shift at 8000rpm each time. I usually back off at 180km/h (112mph) which means this thrill ride is over in seconds. | ||

Yoshi, I believe there is room for one golf bag there (I don't golf). The interior is quite roomy compared to earlier cars. I certainly am enjoying the car but I have to practice NOT driving at more than 20km/h over the limit - tough to do in this car! | ||

Jerry, your 360 looks awesome! That color combo was what I was looking at the dealer. Yellow one also looked cool, too. 360 definitely got looks. I heard that the back of seats have plenty space for golf bags, too. (after saying that there is no space. sorry for assuming wrongly) Hope you are enjoying the car. I also just got my 328 and driving everyday since it arrived. | ||

OK guys I finally uploaded a photo of my beast onto my profile. Check it out and tell me what you think. This is much reduced in resolution from the original. I have about a dozen high resolution images taken with a fairly good camera but I don't know any really easy way to give you guys access to them. Suggestions? | ||

Yoshi, I originally was going to buy a 355 but balked at the prospect of buying a Ferrari without a warranty so I decided to buy a new one. I never tried a 355 but it is still a stunning looking vehicle. I would certainly love to try one some time just to hear the sound it makes. | ||

Junior Member Username: Tiger_ace Post Number: 81 Registered: 5-2003 |
Jerry, I hope to say the same in the near future. 360 rocks! (even w/out space for a golf bag) Did you test 355 before getting 360? What did you think? I like the looks of 360, the sound of 355. Congrats for your new toy, and try to keep the license as long as possible. Your 14 years boy must longing for the day he can drive your car. (me, too) | ||

Jerry, congratulations...! Sounds awesome... Don't worry about your license, you don't need it to drive - just for when you buy alcohol... But, yeah, like the other said, we need pictures... We get restless without pictures... Some even get nasty and violent, so post pictures for, um, your own safety... | ||

Congratulations, you contracted the Ferrari-virus. A mean virus that has not yet found a cure. Once you have contracted it you will need to be on the Ferrari pill for the rest of your life. It is kind of like AIDS. The only way to get away from that is by death. As I said, welcome to the contagious club! | ||

Hello gentlemen & Nika. I live in Toronto and I'm new to the board. Yesterday was the culmination of a near lifelong obsession with possessing an F-car. I took delivery of a new 360 F1 yesterday. Rosso Corsa/Tan with shields and rear challenge grill. So far the car is everything I imagined and more. The engine sound, which is near the top of my list of reasons for wanting the car, is phenomenal. How do those guys make these things sound so good? Stability at speed is almost spooky. It took surprisingly little time to become accustomed to the paddle shifters. I actually ordered the stick shift but was told I could "have my car earlier" if I accepted the F1. But now that I've tried it for awhile I'm getting the feeling that I may like it better anyway. Downsides to the car (besides the price)? Just that I get the nagging feeling that I can expect the life expectancy of my license to be only weeks if not days in length if I don't learn to control myself. And how to keep the 14 year old boys from touching this beast... |
