I completely agree, I'm just using the term 'big-league' from his point of view, he seems to think anything less than a Diablo is unworthy. I still shout out and point when I see a 360 on the street :-).

John- Any Ferrari is a "big leauge" car, the 360 sure as HELL no exception!

If you have the means, I highly recomend it!

There is no time like the present, and NONE of use are guarenteed a tommorow!

Best!

No, sorry, I probably didn't make myself clear,
but I just meant to prove him wrong when he said "Sorry to hear that" meaning (in my interpretation) that it was pathetic that my dream car was 'just' a 360 and implying by that that I couldn't afford the "big league" cars.

I thought he meant it in the exact same way Will did.

John: DO IT! :-)

"I guess I don't see why you are driving home to us the fact that you could buy a McLaren. Did anyone question your financial situation?"

I believe he was replying to the "sorry to hear that" post. Chap posts his appreciation of a car and gets a bizarre response, what's he supposed to make of it? No offense to you intended, Jerry, just trying to explain.

John,

I think you should do it! I fully expect it to be there the next time I'm in Mississagua / Richmond Hills / Oakville.

John,

Whether it be this one or another, it is very clear you want the experience of having this car in your lifetime. Perhaps you would drive it a lot more than your 348. Why not sell the 348 and purchase this 360 or another. After all, if not in this lifetime, when? BTW -- What color is this? Titanium?

Great photos.

So .. why not take the plunge? I took my 360 everywhere, groceries, dry cleaners, coffee I didn't really need or want, always took the long way. I drove around on cold days & hot days with the windows down so I could hear the Tubi. You know all this already.

If you're looking for a push over the cliff, consider yourself in free fall. If you lived near me, I'd come over and drive you to the dealership myself.

Cheers, Will

That car's been for sale by those guys for a looooong time -- I've drooled over it before. ;)

But I wonder why it hasn't sold yet? (It's been at _least_ 3 months)

I know its not the most expensive car in the world, or the most exotic, but I just love everything about it. Fact is, I probably won't ever own a Mclaren F1 or Pagani Zonda simply because I have too strong of a practical side. However, the fact that I could go out and drive one of those home tommorow, and it will be practical enough to drive almost daily, makes it a perfect car for me. If your trying to be condescending, just know that I could buy the Mclaren F1 if it was a purely financial decision.

Allan, maybe I should have just said "tone it down a bit, this is a Ferrari board after all." Just call it a Dino and be done with it :P

Thought I gotta admit, I got a chuckle out of your "wanted cars" quote.

Best!
Ben.

allan- don't be a .

The 360 is one amazing automobile. Especially the 360GT. (though the street going version in grigio is pretty cool too ;D)

Hi, I came accross this Ebay ad,

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2433302181&category=6212

I have no affiliation with it or anything, but it is my dream colour and all the options I'd want except 6speed...some nice shots of it...just beautiful...post more pics of 360's in this colour please...I may just have to go car shopping next weekend ;) I'll keep you all posted if I end up getting one. I'm probably buying used (I'm against new cars, they are a waste of money) if I can find this same car with tan int. and 6-speed I think I'll probably get it...then again I drive my 348 about once a month :-( I don't know, but those pictures stirred something up and got me thinking :-)
